Was it like this everyday or only on weekends or special days?

Some of this was from a loosely organized street fair - and some from free concerts - but there were so many kids around that it was full time 24-7 chaos...

I grew up in SF and was 8 years old in 68 and remember all of this

The Dead were a real trip. You really had to get into their style. It was all good and too cool.

By this time the Haight was fading down, and the counterculture meanderd down to L.A. Taos and points wherever they could do their peace and love.

@workingclasssociety It was like this many days of the week in '67 and '68.  Not always a live concert, but, many people out getting high and enjoying the scene. And the concerts, when they had them, were always free.

@DAS603 Because they realized Vietnam was a sham on the American people.

Why weren't these draft dodging, pot smoking, booze drinking hippies serving in Vietnam!
