Emily Laborde in Haight Ashbury


haight ashbury

The corner of Haight and Ashbury is famous for being the center of the hippie counterculture, beat movement, and the Summer of Love during the 1960s. With plenty of vacant Victorians to rent, and cheap rent, people from all over came to settle in The Haight. The bohemian experience was amplified by the number of psychedelic bands that also made their home in The Haight..

It should come as no shock that I love old buildings. When visiting a new place, I enjoy venturing out with my camera and strolling the streets. No agenda, just exploring, taking photos of interesting buildings, people, and occasionally popping into shops and restaurants.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
