Still feeling the effects of the previous day’s super potent mescaline I picked up my friend Diane Quigley & drove to the Gloucester Cinema. Earlier that week I had been arrested at the Gloucester post office for distributing anti-draft leaflets on the first day of draft registration. Diane had called me after reading about my arrest in the Gloucester Times. She was a family friend who had gone to high school with my older sister.
After joking about “the empire” as I was calling the Carter administration that week we decided to see the movie. I was always comfortable hanging out with Diane but had not anticipated being still high from a powerful hallucinogen while catching a film with her. It was okay – of all the Star Wars movies this one had the most trippy feel to it, & the sequences with Yoda just seemed completely natural to me.
Awesome!
Nice post baby
Hahahahahahahaha
Super friend
Lovely post Paul! Which Star Wars was your favourite from when you grew up with them?
Next to this one I would go with the 1983 Return of the Jedi. I love them all but they don’t.make them like they used to!
Nice work ?
Thank you Hamza 🙂
Great photo! A great story too! Star Wars turned into a big thing since 1980! Thank you
Thanks Leslie 🙂
