@@fredajohnson3963 no no no. You’re not going to get way that easy. 😉. More details. When did you get there. Wednesday? Earlier, later. The bowl was filling quickly on Wednesday. You made it to Monday? By comparison There were only a handful left. Did you camp? Where did you sit. How did you get supplies.
How did this beautiful, peaceful dream turn to todays nightmare? What did we do wrong? Woodstock was the highest peak of humanity. Everything slopes down since that. A one-off happening. Happy I've been part of these times, sad that there will never be something like this....
@@fredajohnson3963Count me in as I was a teen then in the 1970' and I remember it all even though I was nine in 1969 when Woodstock happened! If you grew up in that period you know the difference!
Carlos Santana gave an interview about him and his group playing Woodstock. Carlos was high on mescaline and durning the song "Soul Sacrafice" he said that the neck of his guitar turned into a snake and was trying to control the neck of his guitar from moving up and down and sideways and that's why he was making those faces while he was playing...His Guitar Was Alive 😅
I knew of Air Force veteran who served as a navigator during the Vietnam war. They were shot over Laos, and having parashooted he somehow managed to survive although the pilot wasn’t so fortunate . Over the next 30 days he managed to travel at night through the jungle using only his knife and survival skills, and eventually returned to friendly territory. Later, when he got home, he was fortunate enough to attend Woodstock, where he shared a joint with Janice Joplin when she happened to walk by him and his buddies. Iconic events of the late 60’s . War and peace!
I was 14 in '69. When I hear Hendrix play "Villinova Junction" , it's like he is using his guitar to say goodbye forever. That solo came deep from his soul.
Michael McLoughlin I was there, got their Thursday afternoon stayed 'til Monday morning. I was 17 wouldn't turn 18 'til Sept. 5. . I was worried about being able to buy wine in N.Y. you had to be 18. Didn't have to worry, there was all kinds of stuff to do Buy Saturday they were selling Wine right right out of the truck in Bethel. The best weekend of my life. From Havens to Hendrix I Heard it all.
I remember reading some time ago that , early in the concert, Ritchie Havens was asked to play because there wasn't anyone who was scheduled to play that was even there yet. He wound up playing for 3 hours and he said he played every song he knew. His " Freedom " was , according to him, was mostly improvised on the spot. I remember seeing the movie when it came out and the concert must of been a technical nightmare. Those sound guys must of been pulling their hair out.
It was so rememberable to me because it started on my 17th birthday. I am in Canada when we heard about this great opportunity it was too late to go but it lives on
12 years old July 2 1969 five weeks before Woodstock. The closest I got as a devoted fan of Jimi was when the movie came out within years of the actual event. We had 5 television stations, CJOM was the only 'album rock' thank you our friends across the bridge in Canada.

No - botox, influencers, corporation sponsorship, iphones. Selfies, designer jeans, jeans ripped to look cool, skin cream ads… etc. people listened to the music, made friends, helped each other if in trouble. We were lucky-we made a difference. Rip to those we lost in a stupid war.
Wow, now, after 50 years, I finally know who said, "Marijuana, Exhibit A". Jerry Garcia!! Living in Southwestern San Francisco, I occasionally walk my dogs past Balboa High School, where Jerry was an attendee, in his sophomore year. I think about him every time I stroll past. My only disappointment is that they did not include nearly enough famous artists on the album that was released, yet included several, what I would call, bland musical groups 🤔 I walk past Sly Stone's old house on Urbano Circle, in San Francisco, on a weekly basis, walking my dogs. Including this evening! Santana, Ten Years After, & Joe Cocker were the 3 best performances on the album, in my opinion. It has been part of my music collection for the past 30 years. I also remember watching the movie documentary in 1990, with several friends from work. That was awesome!
If your talking about when its yelled out marijuana that I believe was a member from country Joe and the fish I believe Jerry's just talking showing it off.

There is always someone who gets on microphone speaks their mind. An older man who was resident (local) was asked to speak.He didn't have speech planned says, I'm a farmer and (everyone starts cheering!). Decades ago we used to play at biker bar outside of town. After first set, people would sometime get on stage to speak on mic. Some biker dude said he loved to ride his motorcycle' LMAO! .Everone cheered! So I wanted on the mic, Cocky I said, I spend all day playing guitar, at my girlfriends place. Making long distant phone calls I don't pay for, While she's at work..Because that's what i did". No one cheered, They didn't like me , They said F"*"you! throwing shit at me! We had a blast!. For the first hundred of you mutha's here, we got free 'America love it or leave it, bumper stickers'. Cheech and chong That first guy on acoustic is all thumb?
Also if ya dig and enjoyed this video of Woodstock and still a hippy after all these years though with a changed life and heart 😀 you may also enjoy the song " Most of All " By Glenn Kaiser and Where Roses Grow Live by Rez Band Awesome songs check them out. Also I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and a good question to ask yourself if you were to die today would you go to heaven ? And if yes why ? To find out more please read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on RUclips. 😀
I’ll never understand sha na na til the day I die. When I think of Johnny winter and Paul butterfield not recognized at all. Winters mean towne blues kicked ass.
I remember seeing that band on stage in the movie and shots of the crowd just sort of blinking at them as though utterly perplexed. Ironically the music of the 50s was as plastic as the music of today. Corporations had hold of it back then on the heels of WWII and they have their hooks in it now because the grass roots that arose in the generation of the 60s made the record labels so rich that they managed to wrestle the minds of the upcoming cultures back from that culture that had enriched them. They had taken the bull by the horns, in other words.
@@jacklyn6253 I see your point but disagree about the 50s. Along side that bubble gum music was a second generation of blues evolved from gospel,jazz and delta blues. That’s what set up the 60/70s.
I don’t think anyone realized how big a part of rock and roll history they were making until after it had happened They knew they were part of something big and powerful and meaningful but afterwards it’s like wow did we really just experience that I was about 7 years old at the time but I can remember it being talked about on the news along with the war I was about 11 months old when JFK was murdered in Dallas My Dad took me and my sister to White Settlement in Ft Worth to see the Motorcade just hours before his tragic death All of the sixties and early seventies were trying times even for a kid like me to remember
As someone who actually was there, I can tell you it was vastly overrated as a concert. The Grateful Dead got booed. CSN were terribly out of tune, so much so that the album versions of their gig were re-recorded. Hendrix played so late that (look at the footage) hardly anybody was still there when he played. The Atlantic City op Festival was better in almost every way.

I'll never understand why there wasn't a sequal to the movie with the artists who were excluded from the original movie.
There 's a lot
Because they didn’t have footage of a lot of the artists
And Janis Joplin????????
Yes! But there were too many artists to try to include in one video, the original cut of this was 30mins but RUclips wouldn't allow a lot of it
