The Vancouver Sun, CTV and the National Post have published texts with photographs of Jessie Kerr (with the very same prescription glasses) where she explains what really happened.

    Im 65, heading to Bethel Woods July 8 for Jewel & Train concert. I was only 12 in 1969 so too young to be there. But by time I was 14, its music was played at my high school cafeteria every lunch period and thats how I learned about the music. We all must thank Max Yagur. Without him, no concert. May he rest in Peace.

    i work at Bethel Woods......the site of the original Woodstock, although not this year due to the virus.... all shows cancelled or postponed till next year......
    i had the pleasure of meeting these two(Bobbi and Nick Ercoline), two summers ago. They were historical liaisons to the site, and would give tours from a golf cart, to any artists and their family members or friends, or tour staff that wanted to see the site and get a history lesson about the original event back in 1969. I got to meet and talk with them when they offered me a ride in their golf cart from the backstage area up to my car that was parked in the stagehand parking lot(yes, i am a stagehand there)after a brutal load in, which completely tuckered me out.......normally, i would walk up to my car after a load in.................in their golf cart, they kept a copy of the original vinyl LP (with the photo of them on the cover), which they would show to whosoever they were giving the tour to, while explaining all about the event. Needless to say, i loved talking to them and was thankful for the ride up to my car ......
    i hope to see them up there again next year ......

    Said Woodstock experience, yes I agree , was like being put into a time machine and a powerful bolt lightning stayed real long hitting the ground non-stop; the passion of everybody else on stage were altogether profound. Love and Respect. And another yes, it was like a holy grail that defined what it feels like --- when being freed by the golden years of rock music.
    This was an authentic masterpiece work of art.

      Even back in 1999 we saw a huge difference. How greedy and horrible people could be. Candles handed out to support women who were abused. People decided to use them to set things on fire. People looted. There were assaults, women raped. You had the same person behind this as the original yet it became far more about corporate greed. Ripped the fans off with expensive food and water...and not enough water. Held at a airforce base on concrete. It was as opposite from 1969 as you could possibly get and 23 years later there hasn't been another, never will be again.

      Sadly there will never be another. There was one in 1994 but the one in 1999 was as opposite as you could get from the original and the same person, Michael Lang, was behind it. Violence, assault, rape, looting, burning things down. Attendees ripped off with high food prices and lack of water...which have only skyrocketed. This was 1999. Sadly now it likely wouldn't be any better. It would be a like $500 a ticket, $6 bottles of water. It can never be the same as 1969 in today's world which is more divided than even in 1969 thanks to the internet and social media.

    When I started going to concerts in the Cleveland area it was $2 to get in. Then gradually it went up to like $5 and we were saying, "Nobody's going to go at that price." Kind of funny now. But $18 for 3 days of music was about right although it did seem expensive at the time. Little did we know. I've heard of people paying $1000 for a ticket to see Paul McCartney. There was no bigotry in those concerts. It didn't matter what color or race you were, we were all in it together. The music really kept us going from day to day and it was a terrible time, especially 1968. In 1970 they killed 4 and wounded 13 in Ohio and that was about the end of everything good.

    Had no idea of their story. They, unintentially came to symbolize the "peace and love" vibe of the Woodstock generation. I remember the news, parents and teachers (Nuns) were not kind to the festival. And, of course, the ultimate irony, that the festival was not actually in Woodstock. Causing many "pilgrims" to go to the wrong town.

    "The world needs more woodstock"
    Nice quote but only if you mean 1969 Woodstock and not 1999 Woodstock, what a disaster!

    Unless there is a similar photo contained in the album of a couple wrapped in a soaking wet sleeping bag.. This photo is of " chuck and his girlfriend " we had a mutual Freind in the 80's "Louis Inman " this photo of chuck was a big deal..and the resemblance was obvious

      There seems to another woman who claims it's her on the cover, and not Bobbi.

      @@billbohrd3503 That's right, Jessie is her first name--I couldn't think of it when I first posted. I recently read the article where she claims to be the one on the cover (along with a friend she just met who invited her to go with him). They wrapped the blanket around one another just to keep warm...Nothing more. I believe Jessie. As for this couple that claim it's them, I believe they're mistaken. I'm not saying they're lieing, just mistaken.
