Here’s a really great idea for bad frat parties: acid spiked wine! Bill Cosby, take note.

Owsley’s acid strikes again! Smartest thing the Dead ever did was head back to the City that night. Great stuff Bill.

An army of bikers loaded on alcohol, meth and LSD “policing” a gigantic rock concert audience, many of whom are likewise? What could possibly go wrong? This entire Stones blog needs to be published as the book it’s growing into. Get on that, Bill!

You can see the Angels’ (and the audience’s) antics in the movie “Gimme Shelter.” In his new book The Universal Tone, Carlos Santana writes, “We were glad to be the first band to go on and left soon afterward. Altamont was about overindulgence and cocaine and strutting your stuff to see how badass you were. Wrong kind of energy.” The Stones asked him to be in the movie and got a big “No.” Santana is still saying no today, because every once in a while the Stones want to bring it out again with more footage. Yours truly, The Black Magic Woman.
