OK seriously, one of my instructors for a class I took was talking about Haight and Ashbury...for all of us trippers who are high on life we know the Grateful Dead lived there, right?! OK, so this instructor was talking about how a lot of people would go there to buy drugs...yah...well I mentioned that people also knew about it cuz the band lived there, She had no clue what I was talking about and brushed it off like it was no big deal. The woman claimed to be somewhat of a hippie back in the day, so why wouldn't she know about the significance of the Dead and Haight and Ashbury? I mean, I know I am only 31 (well 32 in 11 days) but I have loved the Dead for a long time and am relatively knowledgeable on them, and am i wrong when I say that people used to go to that street to see the Dead, or at least where they lived (maybe not necessarily when they lived there and were just getting started)? I don't know, but I thought she was damn nutty for blowing it off like "yah whatever, Grateful Dead woohoo". Any thoughts guys?
