Jayelle asked a question last night, and it inspired my question here. Out of fairness to her, let me post the link to her question :

I went to a drum circle/memorial service in Balboa Park (San Diego) the night Jerry Garcia died. It was incredibly moving, and one of the most spiritual experiences of my life.
I wasn't a Deadhead, but most of my friends were. They drew me into the entire experience of being a fan, and I actually felt the loss. I hugged people that night that I'd never met, and knew that I would never see again after that night.
The sense of community, as well as unity, that I felt that night hasn't been paralleled since.
I realize not every atheist is spiritual, but I'd be interested in those who wouldn't mind sharing.
