Highest band in the history of live TV

Post by Diddlybo »

Dr Hook and the Medicine Show in the early 70's when they took a bunch of acid and went onstage at The Olde Grey Whistle Test.

Hippie freakout dancing, multiple bass solos and the simulated butt raping of a bassist. What more do you need?

The really fun stuff starts around the 2:30 mark.

Guitar strings feel terrible under your fingers when you're tripping.

I'm assuming when you say tripping, you're meaning something other than weed?

Tripping, as in tripping on acid.

You don't trip on weed.

False.
