early hippies. today, the magic is gone. aimless and disorganized, the hippies have fallen prey to their own free spirit. free love, free drugs and too much free publicity have gradually corrupted them. something happened to haight-ashbury since last year. we hear it s not the same place. it s not. the love-ins brought more and more people. then people who were just bums trying to get into a good thing, you know, free food, free everything. so they all just came in, you know. and a lot of really rotten people. so now you ve really got a bad thing. it used to be you could set your stuff down beside the road, nobody would touch it. and now it got so you couldn t even put your things inside a building. somebody would come along and take everything you had. one day i woke up very hungry, very dirty and tired and disgusted and decided to get a job, settle down and get serious. joe s job is making jewelry. he s been taking a six-month course to learn how.
incandescent. freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom singing freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom we had had love-ins in l.a. on the weekends where everybody gets dressed up and goes to the park and brings an instrument. but to see hundreds of thousands of people, like a meeting of all the tribes from all over the country. boy, we didn t know there were so many of us who felt the same. [ cheers and applause ] we must be in heaven, man!
we can t speak to that. permits denied. it s absolutely hey, hey. come on. we can make a determination tonight. partners lost. suits filed. and another scramble to find another field of dreams with days to go. o . and what are your ofds actually pulling this off? we don t give up easily. i think we re going to do it. he s dogged by memories of woodstock 99 when love-ins turned to mosh pits, arson, and accusations of sexual assault. a more recent debacle known as fyre festival also fuels the skeptics. they re soaking wet. as seen in the dueling netflix and hulu documentaries, promoter billy mcfarlane promised a luxury festival with supermodels and a caribbean paradise. an absolute disaster. but delivered cheese sandwiches and chaos. and was sent to prison.
the drained idealism of the spiritual quest of the beats and early hippies. today, the magic is gone. aimless and disorganized, the hippies have fallen prey to their own free spirit. free love, free drugs and too much free publicity have gradually corrupted them. something happened to haight-ashbury since last year. we hear it s not the same place. it s not. the love-ins brought more and more people. then people who were just bums trying to get into a good thing, you know, free food, free everything. so they all just came in, you know. and a lot of really rotten people. so now you ve really got a bad thing. it used to be you could set your stuff down beside the road, nobody would touch it. and now it got so you couldn t even put your things inside a building. somebody would come along and take everything you had. one day i woke up very hungry, very dirty and tired and disgusted and decided to get a job, settle down and get serious. joe s job is making jewelry.
river of change. and you get something incandescent. freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom singing freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom freedom, freedom, freedom we had had love-ins in l.a. on the weekends where everybody gets dressed up and goes to the park and brings an instrument. but to see hundreds of thousands of people, like a meeting of all the tribes from all over the country. boy, we didn t know there were so many of us who felt the same.
