From Atlanta and Environs: a chronicle of its people and events; years of change and challenge, 1940-1976: “In December, though, a twenty-seven-year old Atlantan who police said was the king pin of the LSD traffic at pop festivals was arrested while attempting to deliver fifteen pounds of marijuana and 900 LSD tablets to Cocoa, Florida. A long-haired man, he was known in hippie circles as “Atlanta Schroder.” When his apartment, which he shared with several others, was searched, 5,000 LSD tablets were confiscated. Schroder, being absent, was not among the eighteen arrested in this raid.”
Shroder was on the scene and has some great tales. Here are some adventures backstage at festivals and beyond for your edification.
