Turns out after 13 years apart The Grateful Dead's remaining members will perform sometime in October to raise money for Barack Obama. Although they broke up so long ago this won't be the first time playing since guitarist Jerry Garcia died. Apparently bassist, Phil Lesh, met Obama a few months ago and was told he listened to them on his iTunes.
This will be the first time the band has performed on behalf of a Presidential Candidate. Many speculate that this might be the beginning of a major tour for The Dead. This article goes into detail on the celebrity following Obama has gained.
