Grateful Dead Stealie Wool Ballcap

Description

WOOL BALLCAP HONORING THE GRATEFUL DEAD History: Once upon a time, a guitar wiz by the name of Jerry Garcia (a big baseball fan, by the way) teamed up with buddies Bob Weir and Ron McKernan to form a jug band called Mother McCree’s Uptown Jug Champions. They played acoustic tunes around Palo Alto, California for a while before going electric, adding drummer Bill Kreutzmann and bassist Phil Lesh to the group, and briefly changing their name to the Warlocks before settling on Grateful Dead in 1965. They became the house band for Ken Kesey’s acid test parties, where they developed and honed their signature hypnotic and improvisational style — a mystical, psychedelic sound that has dripped down the halls of music history for over half a century now. Made from genuine wool broadcloth and finished with our signature green satin underbrim, this ballcap honors the Grateful Dead with a felt patch of their iconic "Stealie" logo.
