Maybe something interesting will pop up by the 2020s. With advances in medication, AIDS could become the next Herpes, something many people have, but that isn't particularly life threatening. In addition, moving beyond color tv, holograms and virtual reality (not to mention nanotech) could allow for a lot of new creativity to be expressed.

So, for a chance at a new '60s, make AIDS a minor health issue, or at least have virtual reality enable people to do most anyhing they want in a low risk manner, and have a successful manned mission to Mars. It wouldn't be identical to what my parents experienced decades ago, but it'd be a good start.
