    RIP John Barlow, Grateful Dead lyricist

    John Perry Barlow died at age 70 Wednesday. He wrote the words to many of Bob Weir's songs over the years. Rest in peace.

    We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
    It won't be visible through the air
    And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973

    If I had to pick, I guess he wrote my favorite Dead song. "My time coming, any day..."

    RIP
