Sticks, please. There are colonies of hippies springing up in most american cities. Its all related. The psychedelics and the war, the protesting. Im planning on having a good time as long as i can. Smoke pot with your kids and then youll understand why the kids are happier. Its a giant lovein. People should be uninhibited in their sexual expression. You cannot ignore it, a change in morality. Theyre fascist. They dont like hippies and they dont like the things we do. We do have to maintain law, order, and decency on the streets. What were thinking about is a peaceful planet.

this underground of america. when we got to new york city, which is the home of the beats, where kerouac lived, and picked him up, because we were in his presence, we were just acting as goofy as we could, playing music, putting on costumes, doing all kinds of acts and stuff like that. and then kerouac sat on the couch drinking a big, tall budweiser. you know? he was obviously not an enthusiastic guy. those beats, they had done their thing. you know? i really felt like the torch had been passed from those guys to the psychedelic generation. kesey, in many ways, was very messianic. and he started feeling that acid would allow you to see a larger truth. and they started saying, let s get as many people to try lsd as you can. and, so, we started renting halls. we called the thing the acid test. and the band, of course, was known as the warlocks. well, as time went on, they changed their name to the grateful dead.
the whole idea of blowing people s minds, you have to present something that is so different, there s a crack comes open where something new can come in. and the reaction to all these people was wonderful, because what it was in 1964, there was no other thing like this happening. it s part of a kind of cultural revolution going on, making the squares pay notice to this underground of america. when we got to new york city, which is the home of the beats, where kerouac lived, and picked him up, because we were in his presence, we were just acting as goofy as we could, playing music, putting on costumes, doing all kinds of acts and stuff like that. and then kerouac sat on the couch, we would get a big, tall budweiser. he was obviously not an enthusiastic guy. those beats, they had done their thing, you know?
