An ounce was called a lid and we could get a brick of mexican (a kilo) for around $200. I was introduced to Thai-stick and wonderful strains with names like Acapulco Gold and Panama Red.

You and I are about the same age with the same memories. The first thing you had to do when you got the lid home was to get the stems and seeds out. We were awestruck the first time we saw sensimilla. There was no internet and very little info about MJ. We had no idea how they grew seedless weed.

Oh, I actually burned a draft card in college! It was the thing to do at the time.

"Great music and great concerts--cheap."

I remember it was about 6 bucks for a concert ticket.

One of the best concerts I went to was Boz Skaggs (opening act), Fleetwood Mac, and the Eagles at Foxboro Stadium in Massachusetts, all at one show. 6 bucks.

I remember saying that when cigarettes went to 50 cents a pack I would quit. Frisbee was a big deal. Streaking at college. You could buy a killer stereo at Tech Hi-Fi for 300 bucks (individual floor speakers, a receiver, and a turntable). I remember Bruce Springsteen's first album coming out, 1973 I think. Gas lines. Viet Nam war ending under Nixon. Fonzie. FM radio where they played an entire album. Head shops. Acapulco Gold 35 dollars an ounce. Window Pane. AMC Gremlin. Archie Bunker. Nation wide 55 mph speed limit. Muhammad Ali and Howard Cosell. Monday Night Football.

Simpler times. Doing some bong hits and kicking back listening to Pink Floyd's The Dark Side Of The Moon. The Yes Album. Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys. Schlitz beer. 2 dollar six-packs. Radial tires.

On and on . . . .

Vietnam ended under Johnson -- my memory of the 70s is like trying to remember a dream. I was so high on a plethora of psychedelic drugs it's all a blur, but I remember Vietnam pretty good -- getting shot in a foreign jungle is hard to forget...

Peace and love

 

[gourmet]

Window Pane and not much else.

Born in 63, so some of the seventies I remember: girls riding in their boyfriends car with their bare feet hanging out the window,playing tennis in the street, having patches on everything, jean jackets,pall mall reds, laugh-in, reinacting woodstock in our front yard with my sisters record player up in a bedroom window and we'd play the album, jumping ramps, frisbees, don kirschners rock concert and midnight special, early snl.....

I graduated from High school in 1970--it was the start of my adult life.

I spent a lot of time at Yellowstone Park and Jackson, Wy--they were only a little over an hour away. Went hot-potting (skinny-dipping in the hot pools) many times at Yellowstone. My best friend and I got kicked out of the Million Dollar Bar in Jackson. I got married, I had kids, I got divorced, I moved.

The Vietnam War ended. The voting age was lowered to 18. We had big, fast cars. The gas/oil crisis caused many of us to give up those muscle cars. The Watergate scandal resulted in Nixon resigning and for the first time in our history, we had a president we did not elect. Great music and great concerts--cheap.

I spent my late teens and most of my 20s in the 70s. It was a great time for me.

Showing yur age thier THG. Course yur also showing mine too.The Lid thingy will do it every time.
