Although I don't remember the show, I remember going to quite a few Hootnanny's with my mom. She was REALLY into all that stuff back then. She learned how to play guitar (and most every other instrument) and I was dragged along. I clearly remember, I guess I was about 4 or 5, we were in a very large room where everyone sat in the round and there was a stage down below, but, mostly, people kind of decided together what they were going to play. It was a real come-together time. It had a terrific feeling of comraderie, very folk-y. All the guys wore sandals and peace (love) beads, everyone wore their hair long (esp. the guys), ponchos (woven ones) were very "in"... it was a very cool time. But, the first time that I recall hearing a GL song (IYCRMM)was, as I've mentioned in previous posts, at my brother's 1972 high school graduation. Took me to another place and time. It was magical.
