It’s been more than a year since federal DEA agents raided Camp Zoe, the southern Missouri property owned by Schwag founder Jimmy Tebeau. Tebeau stands accused of facilitating the widespread sale and consumption of illegal drugs at the site, the home of hippie festival Schwagstock. The legal wheels of that case are still turning, but the Schwag has carried on as a band. The Grateful Dead tribute act’s Thanksgiving show at the Uptown has become something of a tradition, like the Plaza lighting ceremony for people who douse themselves in patchouli.
