i was looking back thru some of my grateful dead books, and saw something that caught my eye.

in some old photos they show the amps and heads with tie dye speaker grilles. being a 60's guy i thought they looked cool.

anybody else like the idea?

if you know of a place where i can get tie dye cloth, i would appreciate it

Go to a fabric store and buy yourself some bleached muslim linen and Rit dye in the color(s) of choice.

Post pics of the 'groovy' results.
