Arlo Guthrie was born with a guitar in one hand and a
harmonica in the other, in Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York
in 1947. He is the eldest son of America's most beloved
singer/writer/philosopher Woody Guthrie and Marjorie Mazia
Guthrie, a professional dancer with the Martha Graham
Company and founder of The Committee to Combat Huntington's
Disease. He grew up surrounded by dancers and musicians:
Pete Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, Fred Hellerman and Lee Hays
(The Weavers), Leadbelly, Cisco Houston, Ramblin' Jack
Elliott, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee, all of whom were
significant influences on Arlo's musical career. Guthrie
gave his first public performance at age 13 and quickly
became involved in the music that was shaping the world
during the 1960s.
This is among the funniest damn things I've ever heard.
I'll be at Bass Hall in Fort Worth on March 12, 2008, and I hope Arlo relates "the significance of the pickle" live. Thanks for the laughs, ole buddy.

------ About the song Alice's Restaurant performed by Arlo Guthrie
Brilliant entertainment! I wish we had more of this today, instead of all the junk some sing about. As far as the content, it's a little skewed in it's view, but using extremes to make a point (as long as you realize it to be so) is ok. Next, don't ASS-u-me (dumb ass) that the dump is open and deal with your mistake legally. As far as the war stuff, a lot of bad things happened all around. None of the wrongs justify each other. We still must take a stand for what's right.

------ About the song Alice's Restaurant performed by Arlo Guthrie
great protest song,portraying bureaucracy at it's bungling best. where are the singer/songwriter's and the sprit of protest today? censored by the corporate/government/media conglomerate that control's what the consumer driven public think's , or more correctly, doesn't think!
This song was updated at the Bethel Woods Concert Center, the same property that the Original Woodstock Festival was held .
Arlo sang it Saturday August 18, 2007 and was wonderful. The song itself is for real and heartbreaking.

The last sentence : And the rum is good anytime of year. It's "fine" not good.
