Published December 26, 2023 | By Admin

Woodstock Music Festival: A three day outdoor event in Bethel, NY in 1969 that marked the peak of the flower power/hippie movement. An unprecedented half a million people gathered on Yasgur’s Farm to hear the likes of Richie Havens, Ravi Shankar, The Who, Crosby, Still and Nash (in their second public performance), Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and many more. The festival was a paean of cooperation, harmony and peace. There was no violence, but lots of marijuana and LSD.
