Original subtitles

in the early part of the last century

small groups of determined men and women

set forth from their homes to build a

new nation

these pioneers travel long distances

overcoming great obstacles

when they grew weary a place was chosen

and their covered wagons were drawn into

a circle

here they settled for a short time and

there was much song

spirited dance some love and a good

feeling

this temporary home was called the

stamping gram

his travel

on the fences down on the westland barns

on a football ponds and the grabber

still as he steps inside

from the sudden chill and the moment

is caught in the match of the night

for the coming of dawn to unravel

from a window he watches her

a man in his time but his eyes

[Music]

my music comes from you know comes from

very much inside of me

and like i mean some people

some people just are as craftsmen as

writers and performers you know and they

perform other people's material in a

very good way you know

they're acting out things you know but a

lot of what i do is is i i'm not acting

out

the part of anyone else i'm acting at

the part of myself you know and so if

i'm

going through some changes then it

just comes out that way to be a bit more

specific about those changes

change as well like from going from a

group situation

to going to just being by myself

to going from uh a pose of

see a pose of being very serious

to i'm trying to break through that pose

i don't particularly like that pose

that much i've done that for a long time

and i'm trying to make the music reflect

that

and so a lot of the music that i'm

performing now

reflects uh part of my personality that

i'm trying to get rid of

so it's kind of a schizophrenic

performance there was a time when i

wrote serious music and no one else was

serious you know

but now everybody's getting so serious

that i want to tell a joke or something

i want to you know relax or something

i think

[Music]

uh

[Music]

oh

[Music]

[Music]

so

[Music]

as we come down

[Music]

we hope everybody

[Music]

uh

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

okay

all about them

[Music]

so

[Music]

and now we're all going down

[Music]

yes

[Music]

oh

[Music]

where we are

[Music]

[Music]

away

[Music]

[Music]

um

[Music]

the time

passes

[Music]

when you're in a dream

[Music]

sleep

at the moment

[Music]

[Applause]

me

[Music]

is

[Applause]

[Music]

is

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

buying anything you want fire stones if

you like

anything and special for you

antics tomorrow this you will pay for

this same one the double

price with three uh teams as you see

you can use it to catch some fish and

the price is only 10 cents it's very

cheap as you know

because they almost don't break and

if you think 10 cents is too much then

you look yourself in the garbage because

they're laying around but you can really

eat with them if you like

coca-cola

[Music]

[Music]

baby

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

me

[Music]

[Music]

let me cross

take me

[Music]

oh

some folks

[Music]

do

[Music]

so

big butterfly

take me across the sky

you better go get the crit crap

[Music]

he's a good dog too

[Music]

[Music]

his name was blue

i had no doubt his name was blue 55.

[Music]

of here

without you

[Music]

[Music]

is

[Music]

oh

[Music]

the airplane uh almost always since the

beginning

always demanded certain things before

they would play you know and

unfortunately they were very good

as a matter of fact there's a lot of

festivals right now and they're very

careful we've turned down

a lot of very high prices on festivals

because there's been so many bad ones i

think this

this festival here in rotterdam is a

very very excellent festival

but there have been so many festivals

where the promoters have not cared about

the people

who have come you know they make them

said endured or something uh

they don't give them any food to eat

they don't give them any drink they

don't provide hospital things

all of these things are covered very

well at this festival but a lot of

promoters are only interested in

making money you know they don't care

about the music they don't care about

the people they don't care about

anything

are you managing those groups just to

make sure they get their money

or because you want to keep this kind of

music

coming to the people well i really enjoy

it yeah

i really do enjoy it i really enjoy the

music and

i really do maybe i'm corny but i really

do believe that

the bands of today are like spreading

the

a lot of truce and bands like you know

the airplane

and santana and the grateful dead our

friends you know

we go around we play all over the united

states

you know we play over here and i think

that we're communicating

you know ideas that are very universal

among the youth and i can see these

changing all over and the youth is like

starting to take over the world and i

think the rules going to be a better

place

don't you think that the music coming

from the states which

i suppose a good side of all this trash

you're in has a lot more guts than

coming from most other countries it's

always true of any art

if a country is persecuted and bummed

out you usually get really uh

electric artistic endeavors

it's like the country's very peaceful i

mean like how much great art comes from

switzerland

you know all the stuff comes from from

like where there's turmoil where people

are upset and they react their

whatever their emotions are good or bad

it's a peaceful world might be very

boring

no not necessarily it depends on what

you do when you're peaceable

yeah i mean we're peaceable as much as

we can and we don't find it boring at

all

yeah but you're fighting you're also

still uh got a lot of stuff to look at

right let me just say i don't even

object to killing

as long as the two parties are both

interested in it in other words if

if two countries uh say now the only way

we can settle this

because we're so stupid is by uh uh

killing each other then okay now we're

gonna have a little sign

up here uh all you guys

that want to fight to the death and

there are plenty of men who

actually enjoy doing that kind of stuff

sign up here

and you get maybe stadium sure any

battle between china and the united

states and then you don't have to hurt

other people

if if they have to have wars uh then

they ought to do it by

uh signing up a certain like 500 people

from

russia and 500 people from the united

states and take them down to australia

and let those 500 guys hassle it out and

howard johnson's could have a big hotel

and you could go down there and watch it

for the people like to watch that kind

of stuff

then they wouldn't be killing other men

women and children who don't want to be

in a war

that's the only thing i object to if two

guys mutually want to kill each other

great let them kill each other get rid

of all the jerks

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

when she's completed
