The Greatest Redneck Parties in America

The Greatest Redneck Parties in America | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

“A redneck is someone who puts having a good time above all else,” says Corey Forrester, who along with Morgan is part of the WellRED Comedy Tour and co-author of The Liberal Redneck Manifesto: Draggin’ Dixie Outta the Dark.

 

“We like loud music and beer, and we take it seriously. I like to call it being giving-a-damn challenged.”

 

The comedians agreed that the best redneck parties are usually out in a field with a circle of pickup trucks, a bonfire, and way too much alcohol. Yet scan the map and you’ll find some much bigger annual events where brain cells and social norms routinely go to die.

 

Yeah, a lot of them are below the Mason-Dixon Line, but as Southerners marvel when they drive around the North and West: There are rednecks everywhere. This year, swing by one of these bashes if you want to see them in their happiest native element....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

The Great American Hippie Parties That Keep the '60s Alive

The Great American Hippie Parties That Keep the '60s Alive | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Remember the happiest, most blissed-out weekend of your life? How about the concert that changed everything, or the absolutely EPIC party you've been trying to recreate ever since? For hippies, Woodstock was all of those things -- the greatest field festival in the history of the world, the hippie party to end all hippie parties.

 

Except, it didn’t end them. Since that weekend in August 1969, hippies in every state, in every season, roll out festivals, concerts, and gatherings that keep mashing up peace, love, and rock ‘n’ roll. From nearly naked hippies parading through Key West to a county fair in Oregon, we found the 14 best hippie parties in America. (Not here? Burning Man. We're keeping hippies distinct from burners, who have their own party circuit.)

 

For pure flower power and that spirit of ’69, we have here your biggest and finest hippie throwdowns....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Random. Hippies in every state, in every season, roll out festivals, concerts, and gatherings that mash up peace, love, and rock ‘n’ roll. If you didn't inhale, you weren't there.
