    Fair enough, times have changed, society has changed and the way people live has changed but why can't it be like it was in 1969? The music, the freedom, the chance to see great bands (which we have no more) and get stoned in a field......blah....blah....for me it's like i'm trapped inside a modern day person, with the pressures of liking modern music, modern ways of living etc... Let there be another Woodstock is what I say, and let everybody chill man! These days everybody is so stressed up with everything. And although I disagree with the use of harmful drugs, smoking weed is the way out.........;)

    Oh and smoking weed gives you a reality check........you know your purpose in life when ya on that stuff. For some reason I feel alive and see things for what they really are. Not always good, but good to know.

    i tottaly agree. im stuck in the 60s. todays life is too uptight, too much rules, laws, and everything is just all washed up. nothing is peaceful. too much greed. everything is so confusing - techonolgy is taking over the world. there are no positive influences in the media. only rich people that we 'worship'. no revoultionaries. everyone is brainwashed into thinking drugs are 'bad'..and that the hippie way of living is weird and stupid. its a damn, damn shame. it makes me sad. ill try not to think about it, and just go on my merry lil way of living in 1965 :) but there really needs to be some serious CHANGE around here in this world...we just need like put ideas into action

    That is so true. When I think about how the 60s were and i think about today it makes me want to have lived back then so bad. It makes me depressed actually because know the world will never be the same. They should give a country to the hippies where pot is completely legal and its all how it used to be. I would move there so fast. I'd rather be homeless there than the richest man in America. Look what has become of this country. It used to be peace, love, equality, weed, happiness. Look at America today, sadness, hurt, meth, depression, 8 year old kids with severe psychological problems, and child molesters. I wish it was like it used to be. People that went through that time and weren't involved missed an incredible oppurtunity.

    even thouh i was never there, i think 60's life is still just life. you would still be the same person, there would still be a lot of bored time. probbly more bored time, because the lack of technology. and woodstock was only 72 hours of the sixtys. so in my opinion, woodstock is not a good representation of the 60's because it was like everything wonderful condenced non stop for 3 days. and you would probbly not even be there, because of distance and transportation and lack of money.
    not that i am targeting anyone with this, just sayin what my stoned mind is thinking

    maybe if you stopped trying to relive the past and instead shape the future, there would be progress

    Ah yes, the wonderful world of '69.
    The weed was weaker, but the acid was stronger. Tricky Dick was president and there was a real draft (turn 18 and get shot at).

    On the other hand, that was before AIDS; a condom was a birth control device.

    Cell phones, home computers, recycling centers and solar energy had not yet been invented.

    Cops in the south would arrest guys overnight, just to give them a haircut.

    Peace, Love, and Free Dope!
    Free Huey!

    BUT...more important than all of these factors......your VW Van was not an antique yet.

    Thats good advice, the laws will just never be the same. Or at least the ignoring of the laws.
