[@mudrasings]

So wonderful.

[@vreelandjosh]

What is up with these interviewers? Steam rolling right over incredible answers.

The guy doesn’t get it what it’s all about at all. 1948 vibes for sure.

[@StonefolkNetwork]

This was 2009, dearies, not 1948!

[@StonefolkNetwork]

Utterly obnoxious interviewers. It’s hard to believe this was 2009 and not the 90s, with their weird moralizing. I love that Galt, the oldest man there, isn’t having any of it.

8:46 I noticed the bell bottom pants. I used to wear them a lot.

[@randalllaue4042]

They were everywhere...

[@papadopp3870]

Always loved ‘em circa 1970s. Slimming and lengthening. I got a pair on eBay to wear at gigs. Unfortunately, when I tried them on, I looked like an uprooted russian olive sapling. Trying to keep those hiphuggers up with me belt today is like trying to tie a string around an egg. Time seems to win the fashion war.

[@StonefolkNetwork]

Imagine that. Bell bottoms in a play by and about hippies…

“Tommy” was a “Rock” musical...

[@eddyalexiou9951]

who was Timothy Leary?

[@MLBFCollection]

A very clever doctor ;)

[@eddyalexiou9951]

@@MLBFCollection thanks, how is he implied in this fine musical?

[@MLBFCollection]

@@eddyalexiou9951 Well it was 1967 He was a semi-pop culture figure (people in the "hippie" scene knew of him well, he was a big activist for lsd) so it seemed only fitting for him to be in the play So that's why the Timothy Leary dearie lines appear :)

[@eddyalexiou9951]

@@MLBFCollection thanks. Very interesting

Timothy Leary was also one of the first to use psychedelics, which became very popular. Look him up!
