Photo: Brian Davies Pleasant Hill, Oregon January 16, 2006 - 1:57AM Zane Kesey picks at clumps of moss and swirls of brightly coloured paint and patches of rust covering the school bus that his father, the late author Ken Kesey, rode cross-country with a refrigerator stocked with LSD-laced drinks in pursuit of a new art form. "This comes off pretty easy," Kesey says, a smile playing over his face. "It's amazing, some of the things that are coming out - things I remember." He continues tidying the keepsake. "It's going to take a lot of bubble gum," he says. For some 15 years, the 1939 International bus dubbed Furthur has rusted away in a swamp on the Kesey family's Willamette Valley farm, out of sight if not out of mind, more memory than monument.

For official updates visit www.intrepidtrips.com Merry Pranksters journey Further to UK LONDON, Aug 6, 1999 Ken Kesey and his psychedelic troupe of jesters, the Merry Prankster's, took their historic intredpid journey to England today . Their magic bus "Further", which had been shipped several weeks ago from San Francisco, safely navigated the Atlantic ocean and arrived for the first time on the European continent. "The Search for Merlin Tour," the Prankster's official agenda while they will travel England and the British Isles for the next month, is a remarkable continuation of a legacy which began with the first bus trip in 1964 - a legendary journey that spawned the "Electric Kool-Aid Acid Tests" and was at the heart and soul of a psychedelic revolution. The tour is being sponsored by Channel Four Films in London, which is producing a TV speries looking back on the Summer of Love. Two of the segments will focus exclusively on the Prankter's travels in UK. Kesey and the Prankters arrived into Gatwick airport and were pleased to find the bus Further waiting for them. Pictured at left is Prankster Roy Seburn, nicknamed "Secretary of the Interior" as it is his job to keep the interior of the bus tidy and organized. The bus, and two locally hired passenger vans, will carry the Pranksters and guests an entourage of 46 people from London to the town of Penzance on the tip of Cornwall where the Pranksters will view along with an expected 4.5 million people the last solar eclipse of the millenium.

The Beat Generation part came from his days of living on Perry Lane on Palo Alto. When they tore that down in the summer of 1963, Kesey created a new scene at his place in LaHonda. It was the activities at this location that is thought to have to paved the way to what happened later in the Haight-Ashbury, and what eventually led to Woodstock. Much of the language unique to the Hippies, (that not used by the Beats, i.e. heads acid bummer ) were probably coined at Kesey's place in HaHonda, one of the early experiments in communal living. In addition, the Pranksters perfected the art of living on the road in Furthur, the bus, which became a way of life for many of the Hippies that followed. Also, many of the psychedelic art forms, multimedia in general, and particularly ultraviolet light and the liquid projections were experimented with at Kesey's place in LaHonda before being taken on the road for the Acid Tests.

Ken Kesey from Kingwood College Library By JEFF BARNARD .c The Associated Press GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) - Ken Kesey, who railed against authority in ``One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'' and orchestrated an LSD-fueled bus ride that helped immortalize the psychedelic 1960s, died Saturday. He was 66. Kesey died at Sacred Heart Medical Center in Eugene, two weeks after cancer surgery to remove 40 percent of his liver. After studying writing at Stanford University, Kesey gained fame in 1962 with ``One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,'' followed quickly with ``Sometimes a Great Notion'' in 1964. He went 28 years before publishing his third major novel. With Neal Cassady, hero of Jack Kerouac's beat generation classic, ``On The Road,'' behind the wheel, and a pitcher of LSD-spiked Kool-Aid in the refrigerator, Kesey led a group of friends known as the Merry Pranksters on a 1964 trip to the New York World's Fair. The journey was documented in Tom Wolfe's 1968 account, ``The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.'' ``There was a lot of the frontiersman in him, an unwillingness to accept conventional answers to a lot of profound questions,'' said Pulitzer Prize winning novelist Larry McMurtry, who was in a Stanford writing seminar with Kesey. ``We argued and debated a lot of things. But I never would not listen to him, even if I thought some of what he said was gobbledygook, because there would always be the perception of genius if you waited him out.''

Comes Spake the Cuckoo Ken Kesey: The Far Gone Interview by Todd Brendan Fahey It was just another Saturday on Ken Kesey's farm, but it felt like Shangri-La. Some shaven-headed freak stood staring down from the rough-hewn stage, glassy-eyed and grinning through a musky amalgam of marijuana and pine, slapping a pair of spoons against his chest and thigha demented rhythm section in an unknown band, one of the dozens to play in the moss-draped south-40 of a man uniformly known as America's First Hippie. While every cop in Eugene stood poised on the roadside overlooking a commercial replacement for the Grateful Dead's aborted late-August doubleheader, the Cuckoo strode around his own eight acres, miles away, in a striped referee's shirt, signing autographs and posing reticently for the camerasan icon who, in the words of Hunter Thompson, "has found out a way to live out there where the real winds blow." As the proud owner of a plane ticket to Portland, before Jerry Garcia's brief collapse in August of 1992 to thirty years of excess, I felt I had but one honorable decision: `Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride.' And so by 9:00 Friday evening, I had flown to Eugene and befriended a local bluegrass band with whom I hitched a ride the next morning to a rustic encampment in nearby Pleasant Hill. By noon, I had videotaped the infamous Bus from every conceivable angle, as it rested in all its brokedown splendor between a pair of Douglas firs. By 4:00, I was bearing witness to tree-people emerging from the hollow

U of O football has been a major part of my family's fare for 60 years or so ever since we moved into the Eugene scene when I was 6. My dad was a mighty Oregon fan, and every fall was full of Duck talk. I can remember long, drizzly, cold Saturday afternoons, shivering in the car with my father and brother, parked somewhere along the river with our shotguns between our knees, watching for ducks as we listened to the Ducks on the radio. "Yep, we're rootin' for 'em and shootin' for 'em," Dad used to say. This was years before TV.

KEN KESEY IT IS POSSIBLE THAT ONE OF THE GREAT AMERICAN literary works of the last forty years wasn't a novel after all- not in any conventional sense, anyway. Instead, this particular great story - which is to say, a captivating tale that enriches our understanding of not just our nation but also our nation of ideas - may have been one writer's life, as much as his books. Make no mistake: Ken Kesey - who died on November 10th, 2001, at age sixty-six, following complications from surgery for liver cancer - was indeed a great American novelist. His first celebrated book, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, proved as imaginative as it did indelible, and it anticipated a great change in both a nation's and a generation's outlook. But Kesey was something beyond an author: He was a gentle but considerable cultural force, and he helped transform modern history as much through how he lived his life as through the words that he wrote, Indeed, following his death, some obituaries seemed to present Kesey as a man who had forsworn his considerable literary talents in exchange for his mid-1960s drug-obsessed exploits with the Merry Pranksters (a loose crew of friends and like-minded explorers) and the Grateful Dead (his key partners in a notorious series of West Coast event-concerts known as the Acid Tests). In other words, Kesey could have grabbed the golden ring in American letters, but he made a different choice: He decided to challenge America's psychic landscape in ways that not only risked his own reputation but also seemed to jeopardize our own social sanity.

Help Friday, August 14, 1998 Published at 17:41 GMT 18:41 UK Entertainment Ken Kesey's return trip Ken Kesey and Ken Babbs with their Mark II bus this year The undisputed king of the counter-culture Ken Kesey has left his Oregon farm to make a rare appearance in Britain. The last time the American novelist and psychedelic icon visited was almost 30 years ago, when he came at the invitation of The Beatles. He will be joined by fellow 60s legend Ken Babbs for a mystery multi-media show at London's Barbican centre. His publicist says Kesey isn't giving much away about the content of the show, other than it will include readings and vintage film footage from their days with The Merry Pranksters. The pair are also performing at the Edinburgh festival. Travelling on acid Kesey first found success at the age of 27 with what is regarded as one of the great post-war American novels, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Made into a film starring Jack Nicholson it tells the story of a group of characters who organise a rebellion on a mental hospital ward.

54. Cosmik Debris Magazine Presents: Remembering Ken Kesey Saturday, November 10th, 2001 marks a day of mourning and reflection here in Eugene, as we deal with the passing of our friend ken kesey, author, http://www.cosmik.com/aa-december01/ken_kesey.html

Tim Owen Saturday, November 10th, 2001 marks a day of mourning and reflection here in Eugene, as we deal with the passing of our friend Ken Kesey, author, storyteller, cultural pioneer, innerspace astronaut, family man and salt of the Oregon earth. A day as typically Oregon-beautiful as I've seen; warm, hazy sun, not the slightest stir of a breeze, upper 60s, a myriad of stunning cloud patterns floating ever so slowly across the sky... but the quiet stillness, the pastel colors against the glittering greens of the tree covered rolling foothills; an unmistakable omni-presence of magic, of energy release, of peace, of joy. Kesey lived just a few ridges to the East of us, about 20 miles away. I saw him countless times about town and at events over the past 20-plus years I've been here. When I would bump into him on the way to the bank or store when we lived just a few miles apart, he was never in too much of a hurry to stop and exchange a few words. His mastery of word crafting was always at the ready. The first time we crossed paths was backstage after a Dead show outdoors in rural Oregon in '82. Mingling in the afterglow of a great day, my simple greeting led to Kesey spinning a 10 minute thought provoking tale about a frog and a muskrat. I wish like hell I could remember it now. Ken's family here in Eugene has a vast presence as well as past. They moved here to live on his grandparents' farm in 1943, when he was eight years old. While attending the University of Oregon, where he became a star wrestler, he married his high school sweetheart, Faye Haxby, in 1956. Receiving a literary fellowship to Stanford, Kesey would then embark on a four year whirlwind that would produce the cornerstone of his most affective contributions to the changing and expanding face of America.

Kesey's next novel, Sometimes a Great Notion , was published in 1964; the same year he drove cross-country in an old schoolbus with a group of like-minded literary hippies, including Jack Kerouac 's On the Road companion Neal Cassady. They named the bus Further, called themselves the Merry Pranksters, took LSD, and became counterculture legends. (Their story was told by Tom Wolfe in his 1968 book

58. RC Edrington: A Nap With Ken Kesey Seeing a battered copy of ken kesey s One Flew Over the Cuckoo s Nest on the table next to me brings to mind a quote by kesey s I remember from some book http://edrington.blogspot.com/2007/11/nap-with-ken-kesey.html

skip to main skip to sidebar Home Dope Journal ... Publisher News Steve Anderson of New Hope International 28 November 2007 A Nap With Ken Kesey I love the familiarity of used bookstores. Regardless of what state or town I find myself in, I know just a few blocks away in any direction I can find an old rundown building tucked away on some un-swept street packed to the rafters with books. These places even offer numerous nooks and crannies where I can read a little, scribble a few words, or just take a short nap. Having slept almost everywhere from boarding houses at $10 a night to the most luxurious of Las Vegas casino suites, I can honestly say you won't find a better place for a nap than a niche in some old bookstore. The sleep is cleansing. It is in these places surrounded by the words and thoughts of millions that we stop trying to learn new things, but actually go back over our life and try and remember the things we once knew, but time somehow tricked us into forgetting we lost. Seeing a battered copy of Ken Kesey's "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" on the table next to me brings to mind a quote by Kesey's I remember from some book or some interview on a tiny black and white TV that always new to turn itself off at 11 pm. I believe it was that thought of his, mixed with those of many others of course (since rarely are we truly influenced by one person due to the inherent infallibilty of the singular), that defined what it meant to be a writer to me. Kesey was talking to some reporter (I believe) about the difference between his writing and Tom Wolfe's. Kesey's metaphor was precise. He said something to the effect that if a group men were attempting to move a large piano up a flight of stairs, Kesey would be one of the first ones to grab on and help lift. He said Wolfe would be the one at the bottom of the stairs taking notes on how it was done.
