 Jerry Garcia (I) (qv) and Robert Hunter (V) (qv) wrote the song  "Might As Well" about the Festival Express train trip. This song,  performed over the years by The Grateful Dead (qv), has lots of  lyrics referencing this trip: "Long train running from coast to  coast/bringing long the party where they need it the most" and  "Never had such a good time/in my life before/Id like to have it  one time more/One good ride from start to end/Id like to take that  ride again."
