Woodstock Music Festival Of 1969 Tribute
Woodstock 1969
The 60's was a turbulent decade. The assassination of JFK kept us fixated on the TV for days and gave us an insecurity that other decades had not felt before.
Those of us growing into our own during the 60's were also very much affected by the war in Vietnam. We would all watch the "war lotto" to see which of our friends and loved ones would go across the world to fight in a country that we had not even known had existed.
For me, like other teens my age, the lotto was especially painful as I had a brother that was just 2 years older than I was and I wasn't ready to let him or my other friends leave our safe, secure Long Island town.
The 60's was also showing pains from the growing racial issues that faced us all. Segregation, desegregation, marches on Washington. We all needed to become equals.
Many families were separated by what has been termed the "generation gap". Parents not knowing what their children were doing and children learning not to trust anyone over 30.
There was confusion and mis-trust between the "straight" and the "heads", music was going in directions that most didn't understand.
The world was spinning out of control and we were all angry about something.
Then for 3 days in 1969 the world stood still
Friday August 15th, Saturday August 16th, and Sunday August 17th
This was Woodstock and our world and lives would be forever changed!
The Woodstock Festival Was Forced To Move
A bit of Woodstock trivia
The 1969 Woodstock Music Festival as most are lead to believe, was never held in Woodstock NY.
So Why Did They Call It Woodstock?

By the time we got to Woodstock....
Getting to Woodstock wasn't that hard but getting home was another story.By the time we did arrive home, we were dirty, smelly and covered from head to toe with mud. We had walked (I was barefoot as I had my moccasins - dare I say stolen, when we left our belongings to wander around) for what had seemed to be hours leaving Woodstock to find a bus back to Grand Central so we could take the Long Island Rail Road back home.
We got some very strange looks on the rail road and no one would even sit anywhere near us, so we found a car just for us. I guess I don't blame them as we did look & smell quite frightening.
Woodstock Wasn't Just About The Music
Although they don't have the glamor of most of the music videos, I believe that they are just as important as this is...the real Woodstock!
Please note that you will leave this page when you view any of the Woodstock videos in this section and also the music videos further down the page, so please remember to return to us after viewing your selected video.
Or better yet - bookmark us. Thank you!

Silent Home Video Of Friends On The Way To Woodstock 69
Silent home movie filmed by Bud Styple. Don't be put off by the fact that it is silent - it is very good in giving you the feel of those on their way to Woodstock and also some footage at Woodstock
....We Were Half A Million Strong
Although I had brought several rolls of film with me to Woodstock, I only took a handful of photos.
At the time, I felt as though it was too "establishment" or "commercial" to capture this moment of time on film.
I also decided not to purchase any t-shirts that were on sale for the same reason.
Well only about 20% of the photos that I did take came out and what I wouldn't do to have an original Woodstock tee now (one that I got while I was there).
I could just kick myself.
The head count (kind of a pun) for Woodstock ranges from 500,000 to 650,000 depending on who was doing the counting and whether or not they counted those who were stuck in traffic and were turned away. One estimate was even a high (yes, another pun) as 1 million!
Oh, I Get By......
....With a little help from my friends

Woodstock Turned Into a 3 Day Party
Just look at the performers who you would have missed, had it only been a 2 day festival.
You also would have missed John Sebastian (who was not scheduled to perform but some of the performers were unable to arrive on time due to the heavy traffic and Route 17 was closed), Bert Sommer and magnificent Melanie who though only sang 2 songs, electrified the stage with Beautiful People.
Route 17 Closed Down
With over 500,000 showing up the New York thruway become a parking lot and Route 17 had to be shut down.

Max Yasgur Live Onstage at Woodstock
"What a great thing to look out over your own farm and see THAT. Max Yasgur was 50 when Woodstock was in its planning stages but had the same vision and energy as the young dudes less than half his age who created it.
He died at 53 only 3 years after Woodstock. Without Max Yasgur the world's singularly most ambitious and definitive statement of peace and love the world has ever seen, Woodstock, may never have had a place to happen."

After chanting for rain to cool down the crowd, the sky opened up and it rained, and it rained and it rained.
So How Did Woodstock Get Its Name?
At the time when Woodstock was just a glimmer in Michael Lang, Joel Roseman, John Roberts & Artie Kornfeld's eye and they were thinking of a name to call their venture group, they had remembered the quiet but artsy town where Dylan lived in Ulster County NY, called Woodstock.Since they were planning a music & art fair the name seemed to fit right in, plus the reputation of the town of Woodstock as a musician and artist haven would be an added plus for their Aquarian Exposition.
They decided to call their corporation Woodstock Ventures Inc. & that my friends is how Woodstock got it's name.

"So Why Did They Call it Woodstock?" just click again on the tickets to go back to where you were.
Richie Havens at Woodstock
You may be familiar with the song "Freedom" that Richie sang at Woodstock and has pretty much become his signature song. Well Richie had pretty much run out of material so made this song up on the spot.
It continues to be one of the most popular songs attributed to Woodstock. Unfortunately I could not find a legal video clip of Freedom to add to this page.
However, this clip has Richie opening up the festival with the first song played. As you will notice the stage wasn't even completed.

The triangular shapes near the top of the photo were where the empty food concessions were & a great place to watch the concert
John Sebastian at Woodstock
This video has great shots of the crowd and you will also notice that John is smiling throughout the entire song. Can you not feel the love in this performance - this is the true Woodstock experience.

Then you have Brad and although did not attend Woodstock was mesmerized by what he had read and heard about, set off with Joanne Hague to create the Woodstock Preservation Society which helped to historically preserve the original Woodstock site. Brad is still faithfully working and keeping the memories alive.

Woodstock photos and memories
This book is very emotional for me as I was able to contribute photos and memories of Woodstock.
Brad & Joanne have done an excellent job of creating a book that takes you inside Woodstock and lets you see it through the eyes of those who were there.

Woodstock 1969 Photo Book
This interesting photo and story book recollects Woodstock 1969 as seen through the eyes of Woodstock concert goer Jim Shelley.
Journals such as these give you a little bit different insight into that magical weekend than you will find with the books that were put together by professional photographers who may not have even wanted to be there.
I was highly impressed with the photos and the writings of a true Woodstock lover.

A Must Have Book About Woodstock 1969 For You and Your Children
Max Said Yes! The Woodstock Story
I can't tell you how excited I am to share this soon to be released book (first edition will be May 15th 2009 but you can pre-order today)
Woodstock 69 made a lasting impression on those who attended and also changed the world in many ways seen and unseen. Woodstock brought a generation together and although was not meant to make a political statement it shouted out peace in every direction.
Who better than Max Yasgur's cousin, Abigail Yasgur and Joesph Lipner to collaborate on a tribute to Max and Woostock.
Max Said Yes! The Woodstock story was written to keep the memories alive. It meant to be read aloud to your children (ages 3-8) so that they can get insight into this historic moment in history.
With wonderfully colorful illustrations by Barbara Mendez brings the book alive and is visually stimulating.
Although rave reviews of the 32 page book would be impressive coming from critics but this book also is receiving glowing reviews from those who helped to make Woodstock possible.
Here is a just a small sampling:
"After so much time, a little rhyme, an allegory that tells the story, to future generations. Terrific." Michael Lang, Producer of Woodstock 1969
"This book lets the light of Woodstock shine on to a new generation. Every home should have a copy of Max Said Yes! The Woodstock Story." Richie Havens, folk singer, guitarist, performed at Woodstock 1969
"A good way to introduce little children to the most positive cultural event of the century - the 1969 Woodstock Festival." Elliott Landy, Official Woodstock Festival Photographer
I have already pre-ordered several copies and I can not wait until I can share them with a new generation.
Peace
PS If you have time please read Abigail Yasgur's comment in the section below on Dec 07, 2008.
Woodstock '69
Words and Music by Joni Mitchell
copyright 1969 by Siquomb Publishing Co.
Well, I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, Tell where are you going?
This he told me
Said, I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
Got to get back to the land and set my soul free.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
Well, then can I roam beside you?
I have come to lose the smog,
And I feel myself a cog in somethin' turning.
And maybe it's the time of year,
Yes and maybe it's the time of man.
And I don't know who I am,
But life is for learning.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
By the time we got to Woodstock,
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and a celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bomber death planes
Riding shotgun in the sky,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are caught in the devils bargain,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

Do you have any special Woodstock Music Festival memories? If so please share them!
Iwas one of the lucky ones who went to Woodstock (and remember most of it :-) ), and it's an experience that has changed my life for the better. Even almost 40 years later I still can hear the music and get that peaceful feeling every time I smell cow manure (if you were there you'd understand that statement).
If you had any special moments or if Woodstock had a life lasting effect on you too, please share them.
And if you didn't make it to Woodstock do you think that you would have gone? Remember it was advertised mainly as an art fair and only as the date approached was the music the main focus.
Peace

- For some reason Woodstock decided to happen 10 years, before I was even born. However, if anybody around here has a working time machine, I'd like to borrow it, you know, for purely educational purposes and go take a look at 3 days of peace and music.

- Went with a group of friends, most are still my friends, We had a van,rented, a panel truck ,tents, 2 cycles and food and Sue to cook. Like most I have some unbeilivable memories, remember sitting on the hill all night waiting for Grace Slick to play with Ralphie satanding over me. Spent first night in the woods with a lovely lass getting soaked to the bone using my fathers army blanket, never saw that again, sorry dad, We arrived Thursday and left Monday so really had quite an adventure, Not as bad as a lot of people(freaks) wow haven,,t used that word in thirty years, because we had dry trucks to sleep and and stay dry. also we where probaly the only ones eatin macaroni at woodstock. Have memories of laying onth e hill listening to the music while joints just kept comming thru and everyone being so mellow while makomg sure everything and most everyone was OK. Wish my kids could experience some of these great feelings that we were able to have during this time. Wow I'm 59 years old.

My Favorite Woodstock 1969 T-Shirt
Woodstock 'Roll Call Peace Dove' blue lightweight t-shirt
Amazon Price: (as of 11/21/2009)
This is my personal favorite Woodstock 1969 tribute T-Shirt
High quality silkscreen has been distressed to look like you've owned it since '69.
This Woodstock T-shirt is more expensive than others shown on this lens, but I like the additional details and the color scheme. It's also cooler in the summer heat.
Available in Men's sizes Small - XX-Large
The location and date is printed on the bottom, 'White Lake NY (the nearby town where the festival was actually held) August 15-17 1969'. Across the top 'Woodstock' is printed in classic sixties lettering, with a border that extends down the sides to frame the image.
It really is a sweet T!

We have added a new guest book right below this and would like to know if you had a chance to attend any of the Woodstock 40th reunions.
Do you think that there should be a 40th Woodstock reunion festival?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byYes, if anything it would be a great concert

Yes. But I'm afraid the extreme commercialism of today's events would stuff it up.

Hell they can have another music festival. But why do they have to use the original woodstock name? Just name it something different. Using the original name just sounds like a marketing ploy

Woodstock '69 was not just another concert. So the motivation and desire of a reunion can never be a 'great concert'. Sadly we now live in a world void of the Woodstock-era spontaneity. Most things are now so stark-contrived. It is sad but true, there can never be another Woodstock. If someday I find that magic and that truth in the air, believe me I will give my all to the effort of a reunion :-)
(by the way, I was unborn in 1969)
Posted March 13, 2009
Were you able to attend any of the Woodstock 40th reunions?
There were two main 40th reunions - the 40th at the original site at Bethel and West-Fest in California. There were also a host of reunions worldwide.
We would like to know if you were lucky enough to attend any of these reunions and what your experience was.
Than you!

Woodstock Photos
Have you ever noticed that in many Woodstock photos you see many orange tents?
Well for those of us who pre-ordered our tickets by mail we also had the option of purchasing an inflatable tent for $5 and many like me took advantage of the offer.

As the historic festival marks its 40-year anniversary in August, Rhino presents WOODSTOCK-40 YEARS ON: BACK TO YASGUR'S FARM, a 77-song, 6 CD boxed set that features the most comprehensive collection of artists that performed at the original festival, sequenced in chronological order of performance, featuring 38 previously unreleased recordings, including the Grateful Dead, The Who, Tim Hardin, Jefferson Airplane, Country Joe & The Fish, and others.
To assemble the most comprehensive document of the myth-steeped weekend, the boxed set's co-producer Andy Zax pored over every inch of multitrack tape in search of the strongest parts of each of the 33 sets.
A must have for the music or Woodstock collector.
