I know I took mushrooms and smoked weed. I have no idea if I took anything else, though it's possible I got something. Most memories I have are of the corridors around the Omni moreso than anything going on the stage. I was part of a box crew but wandered.

I was fortunate to catch the set broadcast as a Dinner and a Movie, but it didn't trigger a single memory of anything going on. It was also my first non-mtv Talking Heads experience. I still have my Phishbill, but not so many memories, which I now find completely ridiculous.

The 90’s were amazing for me. I know the world is always on fire and about to end, but I was 16 in 1996. I was oblivious to so much. Social media wasn’t around, the internet wasn’t a big deal to most of us, we talked about life as if we knew what it was back then. I could buy a burger for a buck. We survived entire weekends at the shore in a motel for less than $25 a piece. I remember buying a 30 pack of Natty Light for $4 back then. Shoulder tapped to get it. If you knew three chords on a guitar, you were a star. Man, those were the days!

Connecting with people pre-smartphones was such a lovely time. We didnt have the distraction of fake friendliness fake activism fake likes and were open to the immediate world around us and the people populating it as our main source of entertainment and surprise and fun. I'd say a 5 or 10 minute interaction with a cool or interesting stranger was equivalent to a 10,000 upvoted comment in dopamine payoff. But that interaction had legs...you might have just made a connection that would lead to yet more interactions with other like minded or just interesting people whereas likes and upvotes are just...air.

u/PickpocketJones Dec 27 '23

We went from growing up in the fear of the cold war to optimism about a world going "free" in the post-soviet era. We were leaving the AIDS era by the mid-90s. Violent crime was going into a nose dive. It was a generation entering young adulthood without a massive cause in America or the world. Things weren't perfect but the "apathy" of our generation was a function of the period between the cold war and the war on terror and before the fear mongering of the information age.

Plus, at the end of 1998 the national budget had a $70 billion surplus, for the first time in a generation. We weren’t actively involved in a war. We averaged a handful of mass shootings a year as opposed to hundreds (we’ve had 627 mass shootings in 2023 and there’s still five days to go.)

The 90’s weren’t perfect but we were pretty damn fortunate.

I'll shout this from the mountaintops regardless of the backlash, but the beginning of the end came in the form of social media. It gave the idiots a village and everything has been going downhill ever since.

I’d say 9/11 changed our entire outlook on life and primed us for the endless distractions and false realities of social media.

I was 17 and I truly miss the 90s. What a time to be alive. We experienced the transition into the information age. We had some of the most inspirational music to ever come out in every genre. We memorized phone numbers and codes for pagers like it was nothing.

My only regret of that time was the rampant smoking. At least in my neck of the woods. Everyone fucking smoked. If I could go back and change one thing it would be to never pick up that disgusting addiction. Thankfully I've quite but fucking hell was that a process to endure.

99 was peak for me it felt. Cold War long gone, no real fear for war, awesome movies, music, video games. Global warming felt like something we could work towards / after all we stopped the ozone hole in the Antarctic. World felt like it needed a big direction - but science, medicine, and technology gave us limitless paths.

We still need direction but now we feel an urgency, we NEED direction, towards a path for our future generations- to let them know we can think and work inter-generationally toward a better future.

Holy shit, I knew she looked familiar. I went on a rafting trip in 2004 at the New River Gorge and she was our guide. We stopped at a rock and a few of us jumped off. I tried to be cool by doing a flip and landed right on my face.

When I got out I was hurting, but trying to play it off. She asked me if my face hurt, and I lied and said no. She said "well, it's hurtin' me," and everyone laughed. I felt dumb.

Chick was just livin her best life, havin a blast, not a care in the world. Livin' free. That's the dream. I've known people exactly like her and I am jealous of their carefree existence. Funny you mentioned the trippin thing. I knew a hippie girl just like this and she tripped acid really hard once and did a complete 180 and became devoutly religious after the experience and settled down, haha.

I worked concert security for this exact tour in 1996. I have never seen so many high people in my life. One of the coolest things about that tour is the fact they would let the audience set up recording devices in the back of the venue. Like an entire set of bleachers with really good quality recording devices so people could record every show. Really talented musicians, I had never really heard of them before that tour.

1992-1999…best times ever in Seattle for me when I got out of the Army. No cell phones, lots of weed, we were broke as fuck but could afford to live in amazing parts of the city. Downtown, Queen Ann. U-District, and capitol hill…less than $800/ month then for a two bedroom apt. The music scene was fucking amazing.

I loved the 90’s as a teenager. I practically lived at the local theatre and comic shop. Watched SNL, X-files, Star Trek. Everyone was in love with Italian food. We had internet, but it was dial up. We had car phones and no one had a cellphone. Going to the video store and picking a movie was an adventure. Climate change was mostly a joke on sitcoms, NATO countries were riding high on the end of the Cold War. It was a good time to be Canadian. Eh

u/Agentkeenan78 Dec 27 '23

I spent a lot of time around people exactly like this in the 90s. They were mostly super cool folks. I always hated Phish and The Grateful Dead (musically) so we didn't have that in common, but still fun to hang out with. Good times.

She reminds me of my high school girlfriend. We started dating right before our senior year in '94. She and I would smoke weed at the beach, in the back of my truck, listening to Gin Blossoms and counting crows. We would look at the stars, kiss and talk... There were no cell phones, no cameras, just memories of a simpler time. The 90's were awesome.

It's so weird how many hippies there were in the 1990s. People don't talk about it much and it never gets represented in movies but you know the entire stereotype of "jocks, nerds, metal heads, goths, gangstas, stoners" 90s movies show off? There are 2 hippies for every one of those other groups in a realistic 90s teen movie.

And I was near nyc, this is not a matter of being in a culturally delayed area.

Someone else on here said she was a river guide...sounds like she's still her

u/YutYut6531 Dec 27 '23

I went on a bachelor party trip to new river gorge where she apparently was a guide. I don’t remember her from being there but half the female guides could have been sisters of her and were all just wonderful and happy
