The 40th Anniversary of Woodstock @ Golden Gate Park 10/25/2009
The weather was perfect again . . . amazing how these concerts Chet Helms Memorial Stomp in 2005, The 40th Aniversary of the Summer of Love in 2007 and The 40th Aniversary of Woodstock all have had better than perfect weather a clear connection to the will of the cosmos no doubt. Thanks to Boots Houston and friends and the City of San Francisco for a free and peaceful concert. The vibes advanced the cause of world peace on a good tragectory a vibrational course toward the world of our better dreams.
Funny things happen when you start to think you're too cool . . . I knew I'd really do amazing things in this multi-media presentation . . . more pics . . . better vids . . . clever writing . . . on and on . . . it'll be ausome. The universe had something in mind to keep me humble and down to earth. Not all my hudereds of pictures and videos were lost (a preacious few were mysteriously saved). What was most surprising to me was how well I took it and how quickly I rationalized a lesson from the loss. My challenge is to document the event with the digital residue I was left with. So here's a slightly deflated and definately more grounded Captain Wayne-O bringing you the best coverage possible with what digital magic bestowed upon me. (I guess if you're shooting with an aiptek 5100m don't use a 4gig compact flash card it confuses the little camera).
Colorful buses have been a mainstay for hippies since the early beginings of the hippy movement.
Everybody who knows me knows how tactically defensive I am. I really don't like being touched. So I remember reading somewhere how it's good to break patterns and do something different. I thought I'd do something I never would normally do . . . have a massage. Energetic hands were firmly manipulating my layres of outter tissue. Just under the threashold of pain I endured. I almost said thanks but I can't take it. I had my doubts but it turned out to be exactly what I needed. I left the table a little weak in the knees but energized and nural paths wide open. This lovely young lady used her magic fingers to put me in the mood for a very groovey day.
This was very well documented cam-corders every where. Thank you youtubers and of course a special thanks to the Canadian Princess. You saved the day.
This Photo-electronic Jeweled Dude was a show stopper turns out to be a real babe magnet . . . LED sequence a most uncomfortable costume for sure.
