Episode 1: The Uptown Lounge, The Georgia Theatre, Super Jam (Part 1)

In Episode 1 (Part 1) Vanna Pilgrim sits down with Kyle Pilgrim, Lee Pilgrim, Sunny Ortiz, Kelly Sanders, Steve Fleming, John Chason, Angela Stratton Oliver and Amy Tobin. The Old Hippie Podcast is a collection of stories and interviews led by Vanna Pilgrim centered around the conception and early years of key venues: the Uptown Lounge, The Georgia Theatre, and Super Jam. Our purpose is to create a space to share the hardships, joys, losses, and successes experienced during those decades. The podcast will feature local business owners, employees, and musicians who collectively contributed to a moment in time we don’t want to forget, and to preserve the memories surrounding this era of Athens music and culture.
