I wonder what this sheep did to end up on the Group W bench?

#AlicesRestaurant #FunSong

"#AlicesRestaurant Massacree", commonly known as "Alice's Restaurant", is a satirical #talkingBlues song by singer-songwriter #ArloGuthrie, released as the title track to his 1967 debut album Alice's Restaurant. The song is a deadpan protest against the #VietnamWarDraft, in the form of a comically exaggerated but largely true story from Guthrie's own life: while visiting acquaintances in #StockbridgeMassachusetts, he is arrested.

During this part of the song, many of us stop dancing & take a seat on the Group W bench. Hope your #Thanksgiving was happy if not bountiful. #SecondLife #AlicesRestaurant

Time for the annual playing of #AlicesRestaurant on KUAC (my local public radio station).

I have been inspired by @IanThistlethwaite to post three things I enjoy/am grateful for as my contribution to a positive space. I will try to do this each day (flaky memory permitting).

Here’s today’s list:
(Thanksgiving edition)

1) Buttery mashed potatoes
2) Watching the Macy’s parade on TV
3) Listening to Alice’s Restaurant

How about you? 😊

We don't have a lot of traditions related to the fourth Thursday of November. This is one of them. Though for me the first time I remember hearing it was in the summer of '68, when we borrowed my brother's VW Bug for a long drive and my parents were stuck with his selection of tapes. :-) #AlicesRestaurant #ArloGuthrie #AlicesRestaurantMassacree #ThanksgivingTraditions

Standing in solidarity with my Wampanoag neighbors this #takesgiving. May your feast be plentiful, your memory long, and your lessons about the actual first feast with the pilgrims be studied by everyone else. #LandBack

Shout out to to the #UCUstrike folks. May your feast be plentiful, your will strong, and your voice heard.

Shout out to the radio DJs on this #AlicesRestaurant day. May your plates be so full and the company be so good that you need to follow it up with American Pie.

It's that time of year again. Cheers!

huh. Alice's Restaurant the song is older than me. (The album is not.)

And we're *still* fighting this shit. Not an actual shooting war anymore, but the authoritarian bullshit that leads to it, every single motherfracking day. (that's not a minced oath - they're literally poisoning Mother Earth.. far worse than violating one person.)

Ya wanna win the warn an' all, you gotta sing LOUD. #alicesrestaurant #masacree #antifa #protest #littering #nuisance
