We have a "smoking" hippie culture here. The music seen is about to explode with a phenonmenal acoustic player Adam Jason, a good friend and touring partner of Edwin Mc Cain's. Also there is Soulpatch, a " psychedelic hippie-funk rock-n-roll green grass with a southren fried twist" band that features former members of Dragon Lotion, Head East, The Mighty Pranksters, and Ko Ko Taylors Blues Machine. Both bands have Major label intrest and Soulpatch has secluded themselves for the winter to write an album. Adam has just released a new C.D. There is some kind food places if you like soulfood and plenty of kind for dessert!! the Rainbow Family has a strong presence with the Chalet Ridge Tribe in the area.

Comment: Hello everyone just dropping my first line on these threads. I am wondering if there are any festivals coming up in this year. Me and some of my friends out of Moody Al, would like to come to one of these to maybe play some drums and guitar with everyone and have a good time.

Send me an email at Pgramer3@aol.com if anyone knows of any

Thanks
Tyler C.

Comment: it''s possible to find kind souls in tuscaloosa, however, if you wish to go out, the only place there that is maybe worth your while is Egan''s, and then, if you''re female, once you walk out the door, everyone there will call you a whore.

Comment: seeing tuscaloosa as a hippy haven totally discredits every place this list has named. this place is FILLED with racist white republicans, and is not hippy friendly at all. for a college town is very conservative. i have been to t-town and in no way is it a hippy haven.
