Bob Weir, the legendary Grateful Dead co-founder, had a lesser-known but powerful connection to Colorado Springs. Long before the world tours and iconic jams, Weir spent a year at Fountain Valley School, where he was eventually asked to leave for being too rambunctious. Years later, he credited the school for sparking his love of language and music, and even said getting kicked out set him on the path to the Grateful Dead. He also met lifelong friend and lyricist John Barlow there. It’s wild to think how a twist of fate in Colorado Springs helped shape rock history.
