This year is the 40th anniversary of WOODSTOCK

I sure do know what your talking about. And Hendrix hits me too. Yes I am an old hippie that never turned yuppie. I was at the farm but didn't go down on. Now ask me why. Why you ask? Because I have a problem of having to be near a bathroom.LOL Sad isn't it but true. It was wonderful and I wish I could say I saw it all. I loved being that close thow, and there is somethingt to be said for the peace we pushed. Thanks for the memory.

Hey celtic! OLD HIPPIE HERE! I remember it well! I was too young to go, only 16! And my parents wouldn't let me go! Damn it! I had some friends that were going and I wanted to go with! I have that album and no record player and wish so much that I could listen to it again! I loved Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner! That was the best rendition ever! Could he play that guitar! And don't forget Carlos Santana! I loved Janis Joplin too singing Ball and Chain, Summertime.... And I was a big Arlo Guthrie fan too! Hell, I loved so many artists that were there! Remember Country Joe and the Fish "And it's one, two three what are we fightin' for, Don't ask me I don't give a damn, next stop is Viet Nam!" That was one of the best times in the history of music! It was all about peace and love! That was an incredible time to be alive, except for the Viet Nam War!

Summer of 69 I had just had my last son in MArch dont even know if I even watched much tv at that time. as we were staying with my SIL or close by adn so much was happening back then. CAnt remember when I really heard about Woodstock but I do like the music of most of the ones you talked about. Yes and to bad all concerts cant go like that one! I have seen peices it on tv since then tho

The summer of 1969 I was 1 year old. My parents had been married for 4 years and I had a brother that was 4 years older than me. I don't remember much of the years up till about the late 70's or early 80's. I don't know anyone that was in the Woodstock era...actively participating that is. I've heard it was a pretty wild time though. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

Yes i do remember the first Woodstock Music festival as i was very much a young college student with my own band called ARCHIBEATS. I was the lead guitarist and my favourite was Carlo Santana, Joe Cocker. Sly and the Family Stone.Those were great times though i wasn`t taken up with the hippy culture but used to see hippies regularly in my city of Bombay. Goa was the fav destination of the hippies and they would throng Bombay before going to Goa.Yes, i do miss the old Woodstock though i have a couple of cassettes.Soul Sacrifice,anyone?
