I borrowed my dad&#8217;s pickup  and we loaded the goat in back (oh yeah, at that time Swarloka and I had a goat and a dog &#8211; nothing  like fresh goat&#8217;s milk in the morning). We drove over to Tulsa, left the  goat tied to a tree in the park and went to the show. We didn&#8217;t have  tickets but easily scored a couple from a friendly hippie.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the place was packed. Cops were everywhere. I guess Oklahoma was  really scared of these crazy San Francisco hippies singing about  revolution in the streets. This was the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Red_Octopus\">Red Octopus<\/a>&#8221; tour and Jefferson  Starship started the show off by playing songs from this mostly love  ballad filled album. Every time someone would stand up and start dancing  the cops would immediately force them to sit back down. They told us a  couple of times to sit back down or we&#8217;d have to leave. I think the band  noticed these boot heeled gestapo methods and cut short their love songs to launch directly into &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Blows_Against_the_Empire\">Blows Against The Empire<\/a>&#8220;. Everybody  was on their feet and dancing and singing along.<\/p>\n<p>But a ring of cops was closing in on us. Why us ?  Just as they were  about to nab us this long blonde haired guy bursts through the ring of  cops and slaps backstage passes on us. He takes us by the hand and leads us down  to the stage. Now we&#8217;re on stage behind the drummer as the band launches  into &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/ngvt9tPROzc\">Have You Seen The Saucers?<\/a>&#8220;. Me and Swarloka are dancing on stage  with Jefferson Starship!<\/p>\n<p>After the show we&#8217;re backstage. I want to go into the dressing room and  meet the band. Swarloka doesn&#8217;t want to go in cause she thinks the guy  who rescued us is really after her. So, I tell her I&#8217;ll make it quick  and duck in the door to try and find <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Paul_Kantner\">Paul<\/a>. The first thing I see is  <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grace_Slick\">Grace Slick<\/a> at a long table with a bunch of guys in suits. Her mascara  has run, she looks like hell, and she&#8217;s sipping a cocktail. When I enter  the room everyone turns to look at me. I&#8217;m this long haired golden  skinned patched jeans shoulder bag hippie and Grace asks &#8220;Who are you?&#8221; I just walk up, bend over, give her a kiss, and tell her that I love  her.<\/p>\n<p>Returning to Swarloka I find she is talking to one of the policemen. He  explains to her that the reason they were closing in on us is the back  of her dress. She turns around and, sure enough, the back of her skirt  has a huge slit in it. Swar never wears underwear so her perfect ass has  been swinging in the breeze! We were almost arrested for public nudity  and disturbing the peace. We went back to the park, picked up Nanny, and  returned to Enid refreshed and reinvigorated by the &#8220;Blows&#8221; of the  Jefferson Starship and the Kiss of Grace.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>You may also enjoy the following stories by Doctorwhen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>[pt_view id=&#8221;05e831dejg&#8221;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.ronrecord.com\/index.php\/stories\/\">Click here to read more stories by Doctorwhen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visiting Enid with my girlfriend Swarloka in the Summer of 1975 we saw that Jefferson Starship was playing in Tulsa.
