    lol, the beatles better than the dead, in what sense? Their ability to write pop songs that speak to millions of screaming teenagers? Barf.

    The beatles "hippie" phase is a joke, it was a marketing gimmick as far as i'm concerned.

    Hawkwind are the most hippie or ... take Gong in the First half of the 70s ... they were at the top of the movement... &a lot of Prog bands from 69 to 75 were really hippie...

    In fact for hawkwind i m maybe wrong...they are more musical terrorists who travel to discover new Planets... a sort of Universal Freaks

    Probably because the people dont pay attention to 'too clear' fact... The Doors are effectively a real hippie band... but brothers in sound Iron Butterfly are right here too...

    Even the Rolling Stones can be called real hippie in 67 and even in the following years... if the Rolling Stones had splited in 76 ...everybody here will remember them as hippie...and the bee gees were hippie too...

    People are often distracted by the first impression... why not look thru the only brik off the wall...(George Harrison superbe '68 Wonderwall frontsleeve)

    yep... the grateful dead are as inseperable from hippiedom as weed, tie dye, and peace signs.

    as far as modern artists, maybe willie nelson... moby, and brett dennen.

    how are the Spreadnecks an embodiment of hippyesque culture?

    I know the band isn't promoting the vibe.

    imho, i believe the doors have much more in common with goth culture than hippie culture

    good and living the essence (the original question) are not the same. I know lots of great artists who embody the (sub) culture as well.
    Panic doesn't: it (was/sometimes still is ) a sea of coke backstage with girls in the lot offering feel ups for bucks, and more. (I chewed a sister out on Ratdog tour for doing this. she said she'd "made lots of money" on panic tour basically selling bjs and titty fondles. Had the bad taste to ask at the Jellyfish table where she could score meth.)
    half the lot doesn't go in the show, just leeching off the money in the scene courtesy of the white hats.

    Pity, too bacause WP on is very good, and sometimes hit amazing. Early scene was OK, a little inter-rivalry about Phish/Panic, some great food to be had and small lots that did feel like family.
