95 bucks!? and you'll notice they didn't even have to pay for any
licensing, as they have names like Cactus and Henrietta and Red...they
couldn't even get more imaginative than that? Why not Ernie, or
something that people know him by, but Red? Has Trey ever been known by
Red?

This seems a bit like exploitation to me. Are these true fans, or are
they just trying to cash in on the band by selling overpriced crap to
people who like the band. I hope no one buys me one of these, I would
be embarrassed to have one of these myself and I would be embarrassed to
give one as a gift too. I find it a bit insulting actually.

95? they were 40 in the lots! talk about inflating your price
artifically..... the whole ebay thing made a run on them. not cool.

I've heard of people referring to him as "Big Red."

Actually, I AM in a great mood today! Snow is falling... fire going...
coffee... kids playing... and Garcia/Grisman playing in the
background. So the first person to email me youenjoymybobbles gmail
and tell me what you thought about the Philly night one show will get
a free bobblehead of your choice! (Red, Cactus, or Henrietta).

I'll update when the offer is closed.

charging $95 and using the PhanArt 'number one lot item of fall tour'
is a good way to have that distinction dropped. thats price gouging
and not cool phanner. way to take advantage of your fellow man. AIG'd
