The Blue Angel was very "urban redneck" in those days and not hippie-friendly. I went there with Dane Lanken one night and naturally requested "Okie for Muskokie" . The band laughed and said every time hippies came in, they requested that song, but they played it anyway. A bunch of yokels at a nearby table started razzing us: "Lookit them dirty hippies" "Do you ever wash?", but we just laughed and said "That's us." "What's soap?" I was so nervy in those days, I went and sat down with them so they could see a hippie close up. Pretty soon we joked around enough that the whole thing was de-fused. I drew cartoons of them on a napkin and they even bought me a beer.
