60’s

didn’t care to explain – you were either with or not – last chance to shock – no difference between entertainer and entertained – tribes – pagan – music as pied piper – free stores – medicine – real feelings – not conditioned – a point in time that can never be erased from the history of the world – freedom – music is a complete ocean.

Pete Townsend
