In reply to the discussion: When Jimi played the National Anthem... [View all]immoderate
(20,885 posts)36. We (four of us) took off for Bethel on a spur of the moment decision on Wednesday...
We filled the trunk of my Chevy with Spaghetti-Os and Sterno, sleeping bags and a very versatile tarp. And got there two days early. The stage was not built yet.
It was me, my roommate (who had been my neighbor when we lived with our parents,) his girlfriend, and a mysterious friend of his who was introduced to me as a member of the Sunshine Brotherhood. He had a Sucrets box full of tabs of the neatest acid I've ever had. And if you said "Ah!" in front of him he would pop one in your mouth.
We were camped next to David Peel and his group. Music all night long!
We never bought tickets.
