playing at my house for about two hours early in the morning and we were
jamming it was great and I said, "It's like this house is full of spirits."

House of Spirits formed because I was in a restaurant in Kilauea and a
friend of mine named Hank Curtis happened to be there. He introduced
me to Calvin & we started playing casually.   - Bill Kreutzmann
