It’s ghoulish.
Then don’t look at it.
Altamont was the end the 60’s were always destined for.

It was as clear then as it is now that Hells Angels were not hippies or part of the peace and love movement. Perhaps a better finger could be pointed at Charles Manson. I’ve considered posting a gif but I won’t as he’s a terrible cunt that fucked up free love and or sex cults which I find deeply regrettable.
I meant more that the decade started on a high and degenerated into a true bummer. Vietnam, assassinations, the Manson murders/trial. And after Altamont the comedown, as Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and Jim Morrison were all dead within a year and a half.

The woman seated right of centre’s Craven A habit isn’t doing the decor any good.

I reckon Jim was the shift supervisor and that’s where he supervised from.
Come to think of it neither the Craven A’s nor Jim can explain the staining. They don’t allow other flammables into bullet factories.
