    I've seen him in "Solidays" in Paris back in 2008. I was at this festival for one day and walked near the stage as he began to sing. What a concert. What a voice. A lot of people came to see him. I discovered the old man before the young one on the videos of the original woodstock. RIP Richie

    It's a goddamn crime that those seats aren't filled. This man is a living legend. What a beautiful soul.

      It's a different world now. We have so much technology. Who needs to go to "live" venues today when we can sit at home and watch everything on our electronics. Yes, it's a different world, but not necessarily a better one...

      I was there on the 15th I didn't know he was there the day before . This man was underrated . I was there few years later at his memorial service. yes a very nice man

      He played a festival here in Seattle around the same time, we made up for any empty seats. Folks were climbing trees to see over the festival seating at the Seattle Center.

    Thank you Richie, i feel like we are all fools, just sitting around, and we often don't realize the magic moments of our lifes

    I saw and enjoyed so much being 10 feet away when he played the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Had to have been 20 years ago. Saw Doc Watson and Dr John same day I think. Fantastic. that festival was much more wide open and less outsiders back then but I do see why people travel around the world to see it.

    I went to the 40th anniversary with my brother, who went with me to Woodstock in 69 and brought my son and his friend, It was wild but this was much earlier on Friday than when we got there

    I watched the Woodstock VHS in the scariest place. And this song stayed with me as a positive experience. I felt I could have freedom. I felt that I could live free from vice.. I'll never be free from vice. Not of my own steam. It would take more than my own steam to be free from vice

      if you were able, to allow this Beautiful Man’s Soul, save you from your personal nightmare and transport you ( your soul ) to a place where, ‘you’ believed you could be free,
      That is Real
      It is The Truth
      Seek it🌚🕊
