    I remember being a freshman in highschool and the elder security lady told us all the wild shit from Woodstock '69. Good times. Hope she's doing well.

    Wavy!!! Hes a neighbor in Nor Cal. My kids went to his summer camp. The Hog Farm is still alive at Black Oak Ranch in Laytonville Ca. I've been to many festivals there. Wavy is getting uo there in years, but hes still sharp as a tack.

    I had a friend who went. He said the "side show" of what was going on with all the people that were there was more interesting than the music was to him.

    I had a roommate who went to a festival in Georgia. She had her clothes stolen and had to hitchhike back to Houston in clothes the lost and found got her that didn't really fit, (too small) but it was certainly better than nothing. This was about a year after Woodstock. Oh, and I had a teacher in high school that took us to see the movie, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered going to it.

    You are doing a great job Karl, keep in mind there are haters everywhere. There are those who hate Simon Whistler *vehemently* and there are going to be some who hate you. As a scientist and son of a history professor, I can say your presentations are professional. I hope this channel becomes a breakthrough role for you.

    I was a college student that year, and I lived about 50 miles from Bethel.....but I had to work that weekend and nobody would take my shift. I watched the news coverage on my parents' TV and mourned my inability to be there. It was an incredible event---much more than a music festival

    For many years there was a festival in Poland named "Przystanek Woodstock" something we can lightly translate as "Woodstock bus stop". (Ps. now it's still ongoing and it's called Poll and Rock Festival"). 3 days, many many many rock bands and giant field of tents. As years past by festival was changing as technology was growing, but first festivals I was on was just wild. I still remember well living in the woods in 2002, 2003 and so on. We always came early and go back home late, so basicly we lived there for a week or 10 days sometimes. Something like really strange camping. I remember fun we had building our own villige between the trees with lost os friends. Sharing canned food and alcohol. The smell of portable toilets (I don't wanna talk about this). And the mud. We had the mud and dancing in it was great. And ofcourse the music. Many many many rock and metal bands, but my greatest memory is Die Toten Hosen concert in 2003. Ahhh.. beeing young and full of energy :D :D :D

    As a follow-up, you should do Woodstock '99. It was even more of a mess.

  • @noi000

    That was a big party, festival to close out the rockin' '60's and the end of the hippy dream.

  • @pamelamays4186
    @pamelamays4186 6 месяцев назад +1

    While Woodstock was going on, there was a music/cultural festival going on in Harlem. Sly And The Family Stone played at both. The documentary film "Summer Of Soul" tells the story of that event.

    I've been lucky that the handful of festivals I've been to have been run well (though the Columbus Book Festival and its food vendors seriously underestimated the number of attendees). Now, talk to me about book fairs, and I've been to some ill-conceived ones.

    Amazing piece of history :D thanks for this overwiev. BTW you may find interesting history of Polish festival inspiired by original Woodstock. It is now called Pol'and'Rock Festival and it's history started in 1995 named Woodstock Station. And it is running every year since then. BLESS

    @yasminesacristan5855 6 месяцев назад

    The reason why they used helicopters was because the roads were at a standstill due to the crowds. Woodstock is still a popular place and people go all the time. There is also a museum. The town is beautiful. Many bands like Santana became famous due to the weekend. I think you missed the point. While many things didn’t happen according to plan here in America it was a huge success. Thank God for Yasgur.

      He's been doing an awesome job with fact fiend for years now. He used to write for this channel, it's sisters and today I found out. So to see him Go full circle and host the channels is great!
