I could have gone--lived only 200 miles away-- but didn't. My friends said it was a blast, but a big, rainy, muddy mess. Oh, well- I made Haight-Ashbury in The Summer of Love--1967. (And, the East and West Villages in 1966-68. Burp!
Is that Edinburgh, Scotland? If so, ship me some 20 year-old Scotch whiskey, pronto. And, gratis. This is a command!
