Pirates, Parrots and Potheads: Fear and Loathing in Margaritaville

Presented by Bo Bennett

Long before the final days of Tricky Dick — sitting alone at the DC Trader Vic’s bar — Tiki in the early 70’s was withering. The Indo-China war, drugs, and cynical youth culture led to a hedonistic, anti-establishment, subversive party lifestyle. Things were bound to go Gonzo. Learn about the key elements that led to Parrotheads, the Freak Party, Pacific Vibrations, and Zap Comics in the early 1970’s.

Bo Bennett is a professional Social Worker, a lifelong surfer and a former radio personality, film actor, and model. He has presented at Tiki Oasis previously on film, music, and beach life topics.
