Fifty years ago, in Woodstock's wake, an estimated 30,000 people jammed into, or camped outside of, a speedway in Prairieville, 65 miles west-northwest of New Orleans, for what was dubbed the New Orleans Pop Festival. It was a bayou-country re-enactment of sorts.
Some of the widely famous acts that played Woodstock also played at Prairieville, including Creedence Clearwater Revival, Canned Heat, and Country Joe & the Fish, whose"I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die-Rag" became an anti-Vietnam war anthem.He recalls giving the crowd a taste of Hendrix with song selection —"We played 'Foxy Lady'" — and attire.
Nobody could say that anyone who wound up in jail or ill hadn't been warned. The program urged abstention from drugs from uncertain sources that might be"improperly manufactured." And a poster prominently warned of plainclothes detectives in the crowd.
Don't COPY BAD habits of anyone......May be he/she is at the TOP in his field.
GOD DAMN HIPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
