82 years old (Born on August 02, 1942)
Happy Birthday, Chet Helms—the legendary "Father of the Summer of Love!" You orchestrated flower power and vinyl grooves into history’s coolest party in 1967. Without your magic touch, Haight-Ashbury might still be remembered as just another street corner.We salute you today for all those tie-dyed dreams turned reality! Decades later—and we're still grooving to echoes from Monterey Pop Festival thanks to your visionary brilliance. Hope you're enjoying eternal backstage access rocking that cosmic paisley suit—because no one throws a timeless jam quite like you, Mr. Helms. Keep organizing heaven's music scene; word is Hendrix sends his regards!
