I have all the patience in the world about Sirens. For me it’s not a Grateful Dead project, it’s a Me project.

Garcia contrasts a personal, self-directed creative endeavor (“a Me project”) with work undertaken under the Grateful Dead’s collective identity and expectations. The remark suggests he feels no urgency or external pressure about the project’s timeline (“all the patience in the world”), because its purpose is primarily individual—an outlet for his own artistic curiosity rather than a band obligation. Implicitly, it points to the difference between collaborative art—where schedules, audiences, and group consensus can impose constraints—and private or side work, where the artist can proceed experimentally and at a self-chosen pace. The line also hints at Garcia’s desire to preserve autonomy and playfulness in creation, separate from the weight of the Dead’s legacy.
