*_"Shit, the Beatles were so high they let Ringo sing a couple tunes."_* lol!

[@MrPopo40]

@Steve Lauria I feel like maybe most people don't really Ringo singing and you happen to be one of the few who did, hence why you feel that song it's underated. If so I feel your pain since I love Gypsy Jazz and how expressive it sounds and everyone shits on it calling it ratatouille music.

[@szturmixon]

That was actually TAVISTOCK. Getting sober get's you really knowing these things without any anger. War on drugs is part of the theatre. Two sides of the same deception. Get sober, wake up, know yourself (don't let it go) and than you'll see the truth with no desire to blurr it with anything. Including screens. Rare moments to experience (yeah, I'm lost here writing), but these light so bright that are worth every effort. Reality is perfectly beautiful and amazing. No fiction can match it. Take care.

[@MetalSStar196]

@Steve Lauria Nah, "Yellow Submarine" sucked. The song, "I'm A Walrus" was awesome! You should give the music video a look; they're high as a kite during the whole shoot.

People knew, they just didn't care... that's the difference. Now-a-days more people pay attention, because now we have fast and easier access to information , i.e. the internet. We had the internet back in the 1990s, but not to the extend we have like today. Many young adults and teens back then knew of this stuff, many didn't care and those that did talked about it were bullied... called a communist or socialist. Having a different opinion back then was a bigger deal than today... could get you into big trouble or worse death. Just ask the gay community how much things have changed for them in the last 30 years or so. In the 1990s, you were brutally murdered for just saying you're gay, just ask Mathew Shepard. :(

[@Pr0bablyVic]

The 'sorry I was taking life seriously' bit is so poignant, just as much liberating is the no holds barred humor. The way Bill Hicks weaves narratives about a fractured, flawed world with such relentless abandon, while never shying from baring his deeply compassionate soul, eternalizes him as one of the greatest artists ever. With the times the way they are, can't help but so wish if he were still around, helping us navigate through all the madness, channeling angers by calling out those at the helm, mocking those who think they are at the helm, with kindness and without losing faith in what's worth.

[@rustsleeps6063]

RIP. I didn't know about Bill Hicks until I stumbled upon this video. Thanks for posting it. I can understand why he was considered to be one of the greats. I pulled up his wiki page.

[@LVLouisCyphre]

TL;DR warning with some story time and a follow up to my previous commentary. RIP to all of the greats we've lost. I bawled my eyes out over Bill Hicks after seeing this video, researching him and watching other videos of him. A great comedian I never had the honor and pleasure of seeing live. This is one of the good things about the evolution of data communications, the Internet and social media, we get to revisit entertainment we may have missed because we simply weren't aware of it. I would have loved to have videoed when I saw the late Sam Kinison live at The Bacchanal in San Diego in 1990 especially when he roasted a heckler. We didn't have smartphones with video capability back then. You never heckle a good comedian during their show or you become a bit in their act and they will throw you into the comedic woodchipper and everyone will point and laugh at you. A good comedian will have some type of empathy and sympathy where they can gauge their audience and do improv material. They're street psychologists and sociologists and extremely good at what they do. Every good comedian(ne) we've lost I've shed tears for because of the new laughter they're not able to provide the world. I bawled my eyes out when Sam Kinison passed along with his protégé Ralphie May. I cried like a bitch when Joan Rivers and Don Rickles passed away. I had the honor and pleasure of seeing them both live in Vegas. We're fortunate to have people such as this content provider who took an archive of a great comedian(ne)'s work made a video clip of it and uploaded it to some social media platform. That's cherishing their memory and them making people laugh from their grave. While it sounds morbid, it is indeed an honor of their memory. Cheers! 🍻

@@liambishop9888 Philosophy had a very large appeal in ancient cultures. Druids, Shamans, Priestesses, Oracles, etc. Shaped, lead, and were often the go to for answers for civilizations back then. Whether in Europe, Asia, Africa or what have you. They all had their own variant of a trippy, soothsayer, who'd through drugs, music, or trance like states would orally or mentally receive divine premenitions. And these would be used to decide to future course of the entire region. If anything, the value of critical thinking, and spirituality. And some form of deeper connection to things, has been lost. Entirely. We ridicule people who would have been considered holy in those times because of our warped perceptions of reality. And we don't even know it.

I'm glad Maynard from Tool helped introduce me to Bill. Every time he does that long about drugs and musicians, I instantly hear Third Eye. For those unaware the audio was sampled towards the beginning. Different show but same lines. Third Eye, Ænima (1996). Sad that they never got the chance to do what they had talked about. Bill opening for Tool on tour. Bill eventually wasn't sure it would work and it never happened. It was too late once MJK tried to talk to him again. He was private with his health problems.
