hooray! today is altamont's 35th anniversary!
were YOU there? and if so, why didn't you help out marty?
what's yer favorite part of Gimme Shelter? so many choice lines from that film...
"i wanna see mick jagger, godDAMN IT!"
or: "i'd like to thank the hell's angels for smashing marty balin in the face and knocking him out for a bit..."
or: "i didn't go there to police NOTHIN', man..."
or: "charlie's good tonight, inne?"
or: "it's kinda weird up here..."
or: "oh, maaaaaaan...reealllllllly?"
or: "let's not keep FUCKIN' UP!"
how much better is Gimme Shelter than that dopey, yawn-fest that is the woodstock movie? there no drama to woodstock, just a bunch of soggy hippies bitching about having to stand in line for for the phones.
anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALTAMONT!
