On My Wall, Country Joe Lives
I wonder what you’d pay for an autographed photo of Taylor Swift? I got one of the late, great Country Joe McDonald (minus the Fish) for the cost of a stamp. Years ago I saw an offer on his website of a free signed photo: just send him a self-addressed, stamped envelope. I did, and before you know it, I received an 8 x10 glossy of the ol’ rabble rouser from his halcyon hippie days– signed with a sharpie! But wait, there’s more: the envelope also contained this “GIMEANF!” guitar pick inspired by his infamous Woodstock chant.
Sadly, now he’s gone. Ironically, I was just considering updating his iconic “I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag” with Iran invasion lyrics. I think it’s time.
