The Legend of Menna
It was 1969—the Summer of Love—and throngs of dissident rebels converged on the "hallowed ground" of a 600-acre dairy farm: Bethel, New York. They came for peace and rock n' roll. They came to love freely, light up and rock out. They came for Woodstock.
It was staged to be one helluva time: Hendrix was playing guitar with his feet, Joplin was swooning about some Mercedes she wanted and Jerry Garcia had just changed the band name from "The Inappreciative Live." However, legend has it that riots ensued across the crowd as 500,000 hippies converged at Woodstock when promoters had only stocked food for 50,000 fans.
As peace and love would have it, the Woodstock sound crew chief, an enterpriser named Menna, rushed to hash a plan. Working with local farmers, he quickly grilled up a mixture of ingredients to produce an OBSCENELY DELICIOUS and WILDLY ADDICTIVE fare. And, since Menna handled all the sound dubbing for recording the historic Woodstock concert, he called his creation the DUB. The crowd rejoiced, chanting "Dub Mon! Dub Mon!" while hoisting the great Menna. Menna the "Dub Mon" had saved the concert and fortified the rebels of past who have shaped America's progress to this day.
So, in the end, the crowds arrived as rolling Vee-Dubs full of hippies and left as rollin' hippies full of DUBS. Menna continues to tour with musical greats, fueling dub-induced comas, and checking in now and then on the real rockstars running the show at his college joints.
