Called the greatest rock film ever made, this isn’t your typical doc—it’s a front-row ticket to the wildest tour of 1969. The Rolling Stones storm through America, and at San Francisco’s Altamont Speedway, 300,000 fans collide with Hells Angels in a moment that shattered a decade’s ideals. Legendary performances of “Gimme Shelter,” “Sympathy for the Devil,” and “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” electrify the chaos, turning history into pure rock ’n’ roll adrenaline. It’s raw, intense, and unforgettable—a visceral snapshot of counterculture, rebellion, and the highs and lows of the Love Generation you actually feel in your bones.

Showtime is 2:00, so let's gather around 15 minutes before to visit and find our seats. This is general admission (sometimes they do assigned seating, but not this time), but it may be worth buying in advance since this is the only day this film is showing.
Afterwards it'll still be afternoon, but I'm thinking we can walk over to Bull McCabes for drinks, snacks, and discussion. (I am also open to other suggestions - perhaps people might prefer a coffee place?)
