media events, with
thousands of drugged young
people dancing wildly with
their eyes closed, often
without rhythm.
"A lot of people are more
open-minded at Grateful
Dead shows," contends Mike
Shuken, a Denver Univer-
sity Deadhead who studied
at a yeshiva in Israel.
In June, a friend had
promised him that if he put
on tefillin every morning,
she'd get him a coveted con-
cert ticket —a particularly
valuable commodity as
thousands are often turned
away. Shuken doesn't prac-
tice Judaism much on cam-
pus, he admits, but since
he's been to 60 Grateful
Dead concerts he wouldn't
miss a chance to go.
Earlier, S.F. Chabad Rabbi
Yosef Langer had bound
Shuken's forehead through
an opening in his backward
baseball cap. "Look at what
God has done. It's no coin-
cidence he could wear his
hat like this — he needs to
wear tefillin," says Rabbi
Langer with a chuckle.
The rabbi is there with 12
members of the Chabad
movement and as many
friends, at a table near beer
vendors, Dead parapher-
nalia stands and odd infor-
mation booths with names
such as Abalone Alliance.
Rabbi Langer had secured
the prime spot at- Shoreline
with the backing of concert
promoter Bill Graham, who
sits on the local Chabad
board. He got the apples
from distributor Ted Col-
eman.
While the rabbi argues
that Chabad's reputation for
proselytizing is undeserved,
Rabbi Avraham Kraymer —
who came with a contingent
of Chassidim and some
Southern California friends
— gets some more
Deadheads to lay tefillin
with an arm- twisting zeal.
He notes that non-Jews have
received apples and honey
but no entreaties to pray.
For most of those who pass
by the Chabad table in the
souvenir area that rings the
amphitheater seats,
however, the Lubavitchers
just provide a chance to take
a few apples and maybe ask
a few questions.
A surprising numbers of
passersby key specifically
into the comments being
made by members of the
Chabad contingent, with
several of them bidding
Langer and his minyan a
L'Shanah Tovah, a happy
holiday. A couple of
Deadheads admit they had
forgotten Rosh Hashanah
was coming up.
