Woodstock '69 (50 Years Ago)
|
Woodstock '69 (50 Years Ago) Okay - So Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow I'm going to at least mention the Woodstock event that took place in 1969. I really wanted to go. When asking my folks if I could go they said absolutely not. You're to young... The things you remember. In my first 20 years of working. I spent my time working at various Recording Studios in NYC, NJ and the DC area. My first gig was at a Recording Studio on West 57th St in NYC. Two of the guys that invested in the studio were also the two that invested in the Woodstock Festival (John Roberts & Joel Rosenman). Today would've been the second day of Woodstock. Have a great day... Peace & Love! ~Holly     ~Holly Atlantic City, NJ |

Hi Holly. I can relate to being too young to go to Woodstock. Thank God we have access to the music and all of the artists that performed there. I'm a huge Jimi fan. I'm a portrait artist and I have drawn many of the artists from that era. Still have the originals. Take care honey

The summer of 1989 I spent almost 4 months training in Boston Ma. with Digital Equipment Corporation, we were in our RV, my wife and son with me. In August I flew my mother up there to visit the Statue of Liberty. She had watched the refurbishing of the Statue over the last years on PBS and wanted to take the tour! We left Boston Saturday morning and headed south, I wanted to park the RV outside of the city and drive in on Sunday for the tour. Of course we had no Google then, after we got on the Thruway my wife used a campground directory and the map, remember those...., to find a campground! She picked a campground, we rolled off the Thruway exit , as we entered the campground we saw a sigh advertising the 20th adversity of Woodstock..... Damn, I finally made it......LOL! The locals had decided not to have any kind of celebration, once was enough!

The locals had decided not to have any kind of celebration, once was enough!  Three days, an estimated 300 thousand to maybe as many as 500k+ young kids, no riots, protests or violence except minor arguments over the Port-a-Potties! The National Guard was called in to bring medical assistance, food, water and more Port-a-Potties..lol! Just three days of Sex, Drugs and Rock-n-Roll........

In '69 I was 14 to young for sure and it was way to far away. At least you could live vicariously through John and Joel. I'm sure they had plenty of good tales to tell.
