People often ask me why I’m so obsessed with the 1960s, and the truth is – I have no idea. I think I have an old soul, first of all, and I also think I really do long for peace, and I think the tune in, turn on, drop out mentality speaks to me (minus the drugs part). I think that time period is a close parallel to this day and age. You read about student protests, the rejection of the three-piece-suit lifestyle, and I totally get it.
Saw Hair in NY last month and it’s possibly one of the most phenomenal performances I’ve ever seen – and that says a lot. Found a couple of clips with the same cast on YouTube.
Enjoy.
And…cast singing good ol’ fashioned Bob Dylan. Seriously – I don’t think I’m weird for being obsessed with the 60s, I think you’re weird for NOT.
