Was there in a sense we were staying at top hill bungalow colony about a quarter mile away. I was 8 years old and all the mothers had locked up us kids under 12 together to keep us safe from the freaks and the drugs. Heard the music no problem and remember the rain. It sucked being locked up but nothing like the devastation and destruction that remained the rest of the summer. Yet they're all Tesla driving green energy environmentalists today.

There were zapped out freaks wondering around for days afterwards begging for food. Yeah not attractive at all, that whole scene became repulsive to me. I completely agree with flintlocke F them all. They screamed the loudest back then and became total fascists exactly what they were "rebelling" against. One of my sisters friends found a beagle puppy that some scumbag gave acid to and the dog was a mess for weeks but did pull through. They were the lowest of the low scum and nothing to be admired or remembered fondly. Gutless turds who refused to serve yet they felt they were righteous enough to harass service men coming home.

Yeah?
I'm betting many there that day turned 30 and and became Republicans. Being 20, getting loaded, enjoying good music, and chasing tail was the downfall of our way of life?

Was a senior in high school, graduating in 1970. I enjoyed the Album after it came out, and liked a lot of the music...

but glad I wasn't there.. although a batch of my friends and me were headed that way...

On one part of the album, so announcer said " The New York state Thru is closed Man! " That is where we were...

Turned around and went back to Virginia.

Never had much use for hippies, even back then.

Did have a soft spot tho for some of those hippie gals. Learned a lot about sex from some of those gals...

and 69 was a GREAT YEAR!

and Favorite Group at Woodstock? My favorite group of that time period and my favorite of all time... CCR!

Wasn’t there. Friends and I decided to go but waited too long. Could not even get near the place. People everywhere. Saw plenty of bouncing boobies along the road though. Finally just left and went home to drink. 1969 was a great year though.

Can't imagine four days or so of all this good music.




This would have been worth a day's price of admission:

I attended the 1999 version. It was a schitt show of epic proportion. But I’m still glad I attended.

My last dance with hallucinogens in the form of massive amounts of real-deal, blue and gray mushrooms.

There was too much to see. In more ways than one, lol.

Entertainment was going twenty four hours a day at stages literally miles apart. You had to pick and choose where you wanted to try to be for what performance and when.

Rage Against The Machine, and Metallica on Saturday night at the West (or Main) stage were particularly impressive. But I was so fugged up I thought we were all going to die anyway. So, it was tough to ‘enjoy’.

Anyway, we delivered The Bomb.
