I detested the hippies then even worse than now...the memories of the protesters outside the gate at Travis AFB as we returned home pretty well cured me of the whole 60's culture and every thing they supposedly stood for. F...k 'em all, the long, short and tall.
Hendrix's set was the greatest live electric guitar performance ever. Stunning jazzy last song.
Not. 😂 Here ya go. Get some ! 😜 Just a sound check.

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.
All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. -Thomas Jefferson
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? LOL
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.
Seattle pop festival was before Woodstock and had better bands..........but no movie.

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’.
