RE: My Visit to the de Young Museum's Psychedelic "Summer of Love" Exhibition
Thanks for commenting, I haven't written about those topics yet but they're good ideas for the future. Did you hear about Nicholas Sand's recent death? I've been meaning to watch The Sunshine Makers, thanks for the reminder.
No I did not, how recent? I also just messed up on upvoting this post. I failed to check whether randowhale was used. I couldn't figure how come it wasn't working on this post. I should have looked closer. Oh well, a 2SBD donation to him. I will have to hunt up my custom made VHS tape of Ken Kesey's that I bought several years ago, on the Merry Pranksters footage. It was like a psychedelic spin art. Pretty neat. When I bought it online it was pretty cool as he sold it without a charge and then just said when you receive it just mail him the amount due. I just spent a few minutes looking for the tape, thinking it might be where I last saw it. Wrong. I'm guessing it's gonna take a little bit to find which box I stuffed it into.
Oh gosh, thank you for wanting to promote my post! Hopefully my upvotes on your comments help recoup most of the 2 SBD, I really appreciate it. :)
Sand died on April 24 so a few months back unfortunately. I'd be really interested in seeing that tape if you find it and can somehow upload a clip, it sounds pretty rad. Memorabilia like that has a way of hiding deep at the bottom of storage boxes haha, but maybe you'll find it.
I am going to do my best to find that tape now, I just checked out when Ken Kesey died and that was Nov 10, 2001. I remember hearing about him dying and thinking, "ok, maybe that will be worth something someday." So I probably bought it in 1999 or maybe 2000. Wow, that's like 17 years ago, ouch it seemed like yesterday. I will definetly do a blog on it, so that ought to give me incentive to find it. Trust me, I thought of sending you a picture of where it might be stored. We are talking lots of boxes, and several places where those boxes could be. I probably put it in a box 7 or 8 yrs ago. Now, I have concern since it was a VHS tape it my have deteriorated.
Don't worry about the 2SBD, I am using a percentage of my SBD's to promote worthy posts.
I hear you about how quickly life flies by... I'm following you so I'll keep an eye out for your upcoming posts and I especially look forward to seeing that tape when you find it.
