Molitz, Gutwillig, Travis for Hoffman

Sounds sick!!!

wow! sometimes i wouldn't mind still being close to new york. also, is it me or has "America's insatiable obsession with excess" gotten far, far worse since this stunt in 1967?

^^^ It has about as much as the pretentiousness of fascist liberalism.

far, far, worse, indeed.

lol at gmoo

this would be great, but thinking about people like abbie just makes me disappointed in the current generation's lack of any kind of real or functional counterculture...

abbie would not dig a concert at all if: it wasn't free, didnt talk to the masses of common workers; who would not be able to attend anyways due to their needing to work and keep their jobs. Abbie emight not like this idea at all.

Rainking... if there was anybody right now who planned a mass disruption of the stock exchance or anything really, they better not talk about it on the phone or internet, cuz big brother is listening, and 'turrism' is all too rampant these days.

Abbie Hoffman is among the most important figure heads to some out of the 1960s, and along with jerry rubin, rallied the youth more than anybody else. We need a radical leader to take charge now and do much of the same. And when it comes to the music, i think the acts playing are unbelievable! i may make the 6 hour tripp; this one is totally gunna be worth it!

def. BG... I guess anything meaningful right now is so far under ground it's not even visible. I'm fucking sick of that though, the masses don't see activism, they are so overloaded with media, but the percentage of that media that is revolutionary or at least conscious is so miniscule. it's fucking pathetic. sooooo i'm going to get all pissed off about it and type something on a message board, how's that for "counterculture" lol

R.I.P abbie we need more people like you

I wish my generation gave a shit... I don't have neither the time nor the resources to do something myself. I revolt economically.

avoid all needle drugs... the only dope worth shooting is Dan Berkowitz

apathy is back in style

this sounds fucking grate. the fact alone that abbie is being acknowleged in this way is really cool regardless. in more ways than not we are a doomed generation. this world is in desperate need of more people like abbie. anyway dj logic opening for phil and friends = The Good

cool collaboration, for a good reason!!!

one of the major problems stopping someone from becoming the hoffman of today is the lack of open forums and outlets for a young radical to speak to people. Also most people our age are so content with our lives, I guess George Carlin (RIP) put it best "we all have cell phones that make pancakes now, so no one wants to rock the boat"

OK we all know that Widespread bring on the heat but dude..they REALLY bring on the heat~!!

"one of the major problems stopping someone from becoming the hoffman of today is the lack of open forums and outlets for a young radical to speak to people."

You are kidding, right?

Either way WSP bring on the heat!

gmoo, I'm not kidding at all. when was the last time u went to a political rally?

or even a protest where there was more than 15 people and it made any kind if impact?

There are rallies I attend at the University of Michigan, even though I tend to disagree with the uber-liberal ideas many of them propose. Don't blame the medium for people's lack of involvement, as their are MORE than enough ways to express one's self in today's media friendly environment. It's the job of YOU and ME to get people organized. It seems as if many individuals are complaining about our society while expecting someone else to fix their problems...much like waiting for a candidate to take office and 'change' things. And we wonder why politians are so powerful. If everyone took care of their own issues and worried less about fixing someone else then we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with. Trying to force a collectivist mindset onto a nation of 300 million people, who have just as many special interests, is impossible. The great thing about this country is that, if you truly want to, you can pull out of the 'establishment'. No one makes us go to festivals, it is our choice. Any of us right now could go to Rainbow Gathering and live communily. I tend to like things such as this computer, ipods, and audience recordings, and I also accept the fact that most individuals in this world are not fortunate enough to have them. Does that make the world an unjust place? Absolutely not.

apologies for spelling, there not their

"Also most people our age are so content with our lives"

That's the FUCKING PROBLEM Carlin was being sarcastic, but he was right, and he, huxley, or abbie would tell all of us we need to get off our asses and start doing something right now that's for damn sure.

“The nightmare of total organization…has emerged from the safe, remote future and is now awaiting us, just around the next corner.”

“Many young people, it is true, do not seem to value freedom. But some of us still believe that, without freedom, humans beings cannot become fully human and therefore freedom is supremely valuable. Perhaps the forces that now menace freedom are too strong to be resisted for very long. It is still our duty to do whatever we can to resist them,” Aldous Huxley

hey gmoo - way to give a voice to the apathetic and insensitive. i'm glad some other accounting major/phishhead can feel a little better about his lack of initiative and disinterest in fixing the problems of the world (problems that you say only matter to fragments of people-- give me a fucking break, pick up a book) because some self-righteous jam-guru tried his hardest to sound logical in his rant about why he'd rather not give a shit

and yes, people like you make this world a pretty fuckin unjust place
