Well, I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, Tell me, 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

Being born in 1974 I never got to go but falling in love with the music, culture, and being a tree hugger since a young age plus the benefit of being a river guide in a beautiful place paved way to the closest thing I could get to at my age to some semblance of what it was like I did get to go to lots of Dead shows all over and even got to see Traffic open for them but I will always be jealous of all of you guys that got to go there and were apart of that generation. Life was so much simpler and the music rejuvenated your soul and please guys be sure to pass those memories down as there are always people like me that love hearing them!

BADSANTA0059, I was 16 I begged my dad to go to Woodstock. I even told him that he could make it a family vacation. Just drop me off and the siblings who wanted to come with. Then he and mom and my baby sister could go glamping in the Holiday Hotel and come back afterwards to pick us up. I was willing to take him with me for the time of his life and mine .No dice Dad refused based on the drugs he knew would be there!. Dad passed 2 years later and I still wish we had gotten to go together.

tywaaa420, better than shooting fentanyl-laden heroin smuggled in from China and smoking $300 vapes (or whatever is in including medically-approved marijuana and cigarettes and anything you want to) and dropping dead on accident after spending quadruple the money in today's world for a society that steps over you it's way to the next computerized, brain-numbing experienced that leaves us empty and never finding what will satisfy us.

I had my mom's T-shirt from Woodstock until a few years ago. It even still had a mud spot on it from when it rained there. It was a great souvenir!! 😀

Excellent place to be. So controlled back then.

I was married with a 2 yr old and a 6 month older. Too busy to even know about Woodstock. But it doesn't sound like my kind of lifestyle. Drugs, nudity, open sex, drinking, etc.

Cw, Obviously not everyone had the same experience as you. By the testimonials here, sounds like many had the opposite experience of what you have described. Unfortunately, like many others, I was one of the unfortunate & was not able to attend, though we believe we would have enjoyed ourselves immensely based on other similar experiences with varied festivals, rallies, concerts, etc.

Suehasaclue, The Woodstock culture was just beginning of the things you have just discribed about demise of our generation.

Player #3906185, He was a real protective father who knew more about life than you did. Much to be thankful for. Many of us back then didn't have that.
