Hugh Romney, named Wavy Gravy by B.B. King , was one of the stage announcers at the three major Woodstock music festivals ( 1969 , 1994 and 1999 ), as well as other related events over the years. The counterculture figure also made a name for himself supporting the Seva Foundation , as well as hosting his own Camp Winnarainbow in California. But his story is rich with many other chapters and experiences, from meeting Albert Einstein as a child, to having Lenny Bruce as his manager at one point. Ahead of his return to MC at the sold out Seva benefit Saturday on Maui honoring Ram Dass , he spoke to HPR All Things Considered Host Dave Lawrence about his, no pun intended, colorful life.
