"The Electric Kool-Ai...Thanks Saint!<br /><br />Yeah...<br /><br />"The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test", is my favorite book, of all-time.<br />Fabulous read...<br /><br />It's the closest one can get to experiencing the whole Beatnik/Hippie transition and culture, without actually being there...<br /><br />You can't capture an entire era, with text on paper... but "Acid Test"... comes pretty close. <br /><br />Is there any subject not touched-upon in that book?<br />Heck... they even travel to the World's Fair, before it's over.<br /><br />I also like the fact that Kesey, was not just a mindless bum.<br />As everyone knows... he wrote Cuckoo's Nest... and associated with many intelligent cerebrals early-on in the book.<br /><br />His experiences regarding Cuckoo's Nest, were always in the background of my mind, as I read it.<br />His intelligence, and accomplishment as a writer... add legitimacy and historical perspective to the whole read... otherwise, it would be just a bunch of bananas partying. LOL<br /><br />I really have to see that movie... "Magic Trip".<br /><br />It's just... I'm tied-up with this f#ckin' thing they call a blog, all the time...<br />AHahahaha<br /><br />Kesey, and that whole scene from Karouac, to Ginsberg, to Owsley, to Cassidy, to Mountain Girl... is my second big interest after this topic.<br /><br />I'v always thought it would be cool, to join a blog on that subject... or, even start one.<br /><br />But alas...<br />There's that pesky "work thing", which keeps getting in the way of my interests!<br />LOLOL<br /><br />I'll have to continue living vicariously through you, and books for a while Saint!<br /><br />'Course, I won't complain if someone sends me a copy of the movie!<br />: )LynyrdSkynyrdBandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603696815079837528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001083595175224919.post-23903899140069097982011-12-10T11:17:32.515-05:002011-12-10T11:17:32.515-05:00L/S....

The Band further was out there doing a concert in an amphitheater in Eugene- and they all went.. I couldn't make that trip becuase of work- but they took great pictures next to the bus...<br /><br />Next year I will get mine lol....<br /><br />Electric Cool aid Acid Test-- one of a kind reading and story...<br /><br />They just finally made the original tapes they made into a movie- with Pranksters and Cassidy narrating- I saw a screening- you wont want to miss it...<br /><br />" Magic Trip"<br /><br />The very end of the movie- An older Kesey right before he passed- speaking in front of a large crowd leading them in a version of what a long strange trip its been....<br /><br />It also shows one of the earliest videos of Jerry Garcia playing at one of the acid tests I have ever seen on video or in print...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001083595175224919.post-76671173877764338852011-12-10T02:56:35.675-05:002011-12-10T02:56:35.675-05:00Young described Charlie as a song spewer.

Hell's Angels... you name it.<br /><br />Legendary bashes, and "Acid tests" were had frequently... and "everybody knew everybody" is really not such a great exaggeration.<br />It was a completely different place and time.<br /><br />Haight/Ashbury was a bustling place, to say the least... among other spots.<br /><br />I keep telling you to read "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid test" by Tom Wolfe (author of "Bonfire of the Vanities")... but, you refuse.<br />The book gives a great perspective into the culture of the time.LynyrdSkynyrdBandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603696815079837528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001083595175224919.post-77800884683751080282011-12-09T22:21:07.922-05:002011-12-09T22:21:07.922-05:00People used to claim that they were all invited to...People used to claim that they were all invited to Sharon's house for a party the night of August 8th, 1969.<br /><br />Now, I guess, they were all invited to Mama Cass's house.
