Police Win War on Drugs Belonging to Zonked Phish Hippies |

I say this as someone who was once run over and dragged down the boulevard by a very stoned hippie. Recovery was long and painful.
And if you're stupid enough to haul your stash out in public, tough shit on ye. That's what the port-a-potty is for.

Meh, one person does not prove much.
Try riding a motorcycle to work every day and see all the dumb shit people do behind the wheel. You would start hating all of humanity.

I really cut back on listening to them around the time that "Billy Breathes" came out.
That said, the song "Maze" is one of those songs that instantly takes me back to high school. Love that track.

I haven't been to a Phish concert in 10 years, but I'm with you. Mostly just college kids who like pot, but aren't into punk enough to like indie rock.

Just let me put it this way: they didnt exactly try to be subtle about their activities, and they didnt exactly blend with the local population.
Though this is a bit of a rough area, my interactions with the Hampton police have been uniformly positive and I saw a LOT of cops just very patiently trying to deal with hordes of college kids and hippies that were just freaking *everywhere*, and seeming to think that they could just do whatever, wherever.
Apologies to any offended Phish fans. I know you were excited about the reunion. Wow, do I know.
Just my .02, as an eyewitness...

Hmmm.
Cops - drawbacks: racism, killing, big gun/small dick syndrome, wear polyester outfits, handcuffs.
Advantages: protect us from hipies, uniforms surprisingly hot on girls, handcuffs, sometimes do their jobs.
Hippies - drawbacks: have shitty weed, keep jam bands from dying like they should have 35 years ago, smell, are too strident to have a pleasant conversation with, hypocritical, like dayglo colors.
Advantages: none.
Gonna have to side with the cops on this one.

Disadvantages: will engage you in conversations about Darfur while you are high.

The lady-hippies prefer corduroy pants and those awful quilted halter tops with the open back. The more you look like an English peasant, the better.
Ravers prefer the day-glo. The more you look like a cracked-out Smurf, the better.

@mfnher: If yo've ever had to be on public transportation with a hippy you have suffered. Also, I say this as a liberal, but ALL HUMORLESS LIBERALS MUST DIE OR LIGHTEN UP (not you, I mean hippies).

...but then again if it weren't for cops, we wouldn't have the Village People...
let's just call it a draw..

The Times actually ran a story on the comeback last week. Apparently they had like half of Vermont on the payroll all those years and needed a payday.
Kind of a Nilla version of the Hammer losing the Hammer Time mansion.
