Legalize Medicinal Psychedelics: Why Not Let Doctors and Patients Decide What Medicine is Best? Get the BRIBED Politicians OUT! They Are Puppets of Big Pharma!

If the FDA Regulated Psychedelics; Quality, Purity and Dosage Testing would protect the consumer from Unknown Dangerous Drugs. Currently, Criminals That Sell "ACID" often Mix a Witches Brew of Chemicals that Make People Feel Strange... For Example: Fentanyl and Methamphetamine makes for a Pill that Truly "Blows Your Mind" but Often Kills the Consumer...

We're not too far off the mark these days.... more than ever!

Mountain Girl and Bus

The Merry Pranksters are a group of people who formed around American author Ken Kesey in 1964 and sometimes lived communally at his homes in California and Oregon. The group promoted the use of psychedelic drugs. Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters are noted for the sociological significance of a lengthy road trip they took in the summer of 1964, traveling across the United States in a psychedelic painted school bus enigmatically and variably labeled "Further" or "Furthur". Their early escapades were chronicled by Tom Wolfe in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Wolfe also documents a notorious 1966 trip on Further from Mexico thru Houston, stopping to visit Kesey's friend novelist Larry McMurtry. Kesey was on the lam from a drug charge at the time.

Notable members of the group include Kesey's best friend Ken Babbs and Neal Cassady, Carolyn Garcia (also known as Mountain Girl), Wavy Gravy, Paul Krassner, Stewart Brand, Del Close, Paul Foster, Kentucky Fab Five author Ed McClanahan (also known as "Captain Kentucky"), Gurney Norman, George Walker, Sandy Lehmann-Haupt, Anonymous (Linda Breen) and John Page Browning (also known as "Rampage" or the "Cadaverous Cowboy").

A hippie was a member of a liberal counterculture, originally a youth movement that started in the United States and the United Kingdom during the mid-1960s and spread to other countries around the world. The word hippie came from hipster and was initially used to describe beatniks who had moved into New York City's Greenwich Village and San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. The term hippie was first popularized in San Francisco by Herb Caen, who was a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle. The origins of the terms hip and hep are uncertain, although by the 1940s both had become part of African American jive slang and meant "sophisticated; currently fashionable; fully up-to-date”. The Beats adopted the term hip, and early hippies inherited the language and countercultural values of the Beat Generation. Hippies created their own communities, listened to psychedelic music, embraced the sexual revolution, and used drugs such as cannabis, LSD, peyote and psilocybin mushrooms to explore altered states of consciousness. In January 1967, the Human Be-In in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco popularized hippie culture, leading to the Summer of Love on the West Coast of the United States, and the 1969 Woodstock Festival on the East Coast. Hippies in Mexico, known as jipitecas, formed La Onda and gathered at Avándaro, while in New Zealand, nomadic housetruckers practiced alternative lifestyles and promoted sustainable energy at Nambassa. In the United Kingdom in 1970, many gathered at the gigantic Isle of Wight Festival with a crowd of around 400,000 people. I was there! In later years, mobile "peace convoys" of New Age travelers made summer pilgrimages to free music festivals at Stonehenge and elsewhere. In Australia, hippies gathered at Nimbin for the 1973 Aquarius Festival and the annual Cannabis Law Reform Rally or MardiGrass. "Piedra Roja Festival", a major hippie event in Chile, was held in 1970. Hippie fashion and values had a major effect on culture, influencing popular music, television, film, literature, and the arts. Since the 1960s, many aspects of hippie culture have been assimilated by mainstream society.

During the past few years, attempts to put on exhibits to expound on the Hippies or Summer of Love or of Woodstock was and is well meant, but somewhat futile as is like trying to capture lighting in a bottle….. Nice try, but (IMHO) …no cigar. The philosophies of the true Hippie does still live on but these days to run across a true Hippie is a lot harder than you may think. Alas…..keep your eyes open, they’re still out there just the same, but not always where you may think them to be.

Still lett'in MY Freak Flag Fly!

and then SC Replied:

I was born too late to be a TRUE Hippie (1962), but I am & always will be a Hippie in my Heart. I got on the Grateful Dead bus in 1980 & never got off 

 I've kept the ideals of peace, love & environmental activism my whole life! I'm married to a slightly older, late blooming Hippie as well. (40yrs next month!)

and then SD Said:

A hippie was a lifestyle choice not a person or thing we lived on in our lives with a acceptance mindset that went beyond being liberal it was being truer to our inner spiritual self and a willingness to accept that we may not change others but we could change ourselves I know many that have not changed a bit and some who have but I judge not least I believe in the inherent ability of our creator to give us strength to adapt to change and still be able to be a hippie at our core Loving caring forgiving gentle and generous humans...

and SOC Said: 

Very well explained and very accurate. I lived it and my inner Hippie lives on at age 70. I'm so glad to have come up in that Era, with all the great music, experimentation, play, and fantastic creativity. We were encouraged to be ourselves, not clones. We were colorful, to say the least. And we were well intentioned, with perhaps an air of too much naiveté....I so agree with you that the summer Hippie Fests are just so wanna- be and syrupy. You really had to live it to really get it. It truly was spontaneous and very organic. To recreate it just isn't possible in today's world. Blessed am I have to have been part of that scene while it lasted.

• HOLY GRAIL of ROCK POSTERS •
One of the most rare and sought after psychedelic rock posters from any era. From the summer of 1969 comes this Hawaiian Aoxomoxoa by the late & legendary Rock Artist Extraordinaire Rick Griffin. It was for a show that was CANCELLED so the posters are very few and far between, only a couple of dozen are known to exist! Griffin did the first Aoxomoxoa for a series of shows the Grateful Dead did in January of 1969 at the Avalon ballroom, and the Dead in turn, flipped that artwork into the cover of their third album. Griffin reworked the art from those shows, into the Hawaiian Aoxomoxoa. This poster is SOOOOO VERY rare. It was for an event in Hawaii, that was supposed to be for three days at the Honolulu international Center in Honolulu Hawaii. Besides the Dead, It's a Beautiful Day was also on the bill. Can you imagine how many hours went into this poster ?!
The shows were cancelled, the promoter never paid the printer, and the printer threw most of the items in the trash can. Of course there wasn't a collectors market for these items at the time. Legend has it that Rick Griffin captured a few before they were thrown out and brought them back on the plane with him. A few of the cut ones, and a few of the ones with the handbills still not cut off of them. These are the ONLY remaining ones that have survived.
And so it was on this day 54 years ago that the Aoxomoxoa Tour with the Grateful Dead, It's a Beautiful Day and Starchild at the Honolulu International Center was "supposed" to take place. The second reprinting of this poster is somewhat smaller than the original and is recently beginning to rise in price as well. The second printing as seen here also has a white border while it is black on the original as you can see in my framed picture of the poster in the comments.

Aloha.... Share this rare one!
