You are so right. I started the year before you did. I was turned away once because I was wearing a mock turtleneck with an open collared shirt and sport coat ala the Dave Clark Five look circa 1966 I had to drive the thirty miles or so to return with 'proper coat and tie attire'. I recall going to a place called the Allen Street Landing and Electric Circus in downtown Houston in the summer of 1967 or maybe 1968. Everyone was wearing bell bottomed jeans, tie-died shirts, smoking grass, exchanging flowers, and staring at those projections of amoeba like images moving all around while the sitar music played. The whole society seemed to flip out in one way or another and nothing was ever the same again. It may started in Haight-Asbury in '67 but swept across the country so quickly that I was completely taken by surprise.
