“Trip” with a true Christianite, the Joker, into a colorful flashback when he invites you on a city walk through Christianshavn, where you experience the wild years between the 1960s and the 70s — when the hippies challenged the pulse of the whole city.
We start in Christianshavn's old slum environment, where housing distress was immense and young people took matters into their own hands by moving into dilapidated apartments and backyards. Here we feel the echo of the worn stairwells, the homemade posters on the walls and the smell of coffee, smoke and revolution.
Along the way we dive into the roots of music: Steppeulvene, Gasolin' and others who gave Copenhagen a soundtrack of freedom, provocation and poetry. We stop at places where the rhythms were jammed and the stories still hang in the brickwork. Yes, even the rat hole from Huset on Christianshavn will take you by the Joker before the trip continues towards Fristaden.
You will also hear about the first “Love-In”, namely the Danish “Summer of Love” in 1967 in Kongens Have, the story of the “big, ugly Storkespringvand”, where the energy of the street and the rebellion of the youth also unfolded, and on to Bådsmandsstræde, where a disused barracks became the sanctuary of Christiania, which the tour goes through.
The tour offers the dream of community and self-determination — and how the “movement” split: some sought a political path, others plunged headlong into the psychedelic universe. And don't worry: we're talking about real hippies — not hipsters from Vesterbro anno 2010. The tour will not premiere until 2048.
The trip lasts about two hours. We start at Sofiegade 1 at Christianshavn in front of Sofiegårdens Kollegium and end at Den Grå Hal on Christiania, close to Prinsessegade 63.
