That generation helped stop the war in the early 70's. That is some achievement. We needed that during the war on terror years.

@alvask8z2000 Not cool man, the 60's were about peace and love not hating on people who had different beliefs. This was a beautiful time, and no violence ever solves any problem. I hope that you take time to look into yourself and see that peace is best. Peace out brother.

i am the reincarnation of jim morrison and my girlfriend before we got in a fight was the reincarnation of janis joplin. we both have really strong energy healing powers and can mind control people with music and more THE PIPERS ARE BACK . I would like to see this happen again even though i know it would not be me up there. I can pretty much lie my way into any gig any size because of my "the doors" karma but i decided to go into math and science for the modesty.

I was there. Helped set up the place. Got there a week early and got a job there.

What a TRIP! Literally!

En ese año yo tenía 7 años...recuerdo que la película llegó en Enero de 1970 y los cines estaban repletos llenos de hippies, mis hermanos me llevaron a ver...y todos no lo podíamos creer, era como otro planeta...no podíamos estar más atrasados en la música aca en Chile...pero desde ese momento empezó la transformación de los grupos musicales...desde ese momento hubo un antes y después de la música rock nacional en Chile...esos momentos no se me olvidaron nunca ver a Santana,TheWho,Ten years.....
