I was driving through Woodstock and saw you. I'm the blue car just as you passed by the Woodstock heart sculpture. I need to thank you for the way you cheered my partner and I up during the pandemic.. he is a fretless player and your kindness and fun videos were a lifeline for us both. It made our day to realize it was really you!
Did anyone else expect to hear Brad's saxophone coming from behind the bushes? Are you going to be able to make it out to the festival site? I'd love to get a video tour!
@@songsfromthegarage1643 I didn't realize Bethel was that far from Woodstock. But to come this far, as a musician who really appreciates history, I would try to find a way.
@@podstockfromwoodstock3144 So cool meeting Mr. Lee huh???? Man a GIANT in the business and so grounded and down to earth!!!!!!! Just walking through town.
Now I cansay I've been to Woodstock..through Skalar's eyeballs..just beautiful scenery. Have a great time at your viewing. Stay safe be safe Leland Sklar. ❤
@@lastnamefirst4035 That's sort of the deal. I keep getting back from pulling off a long slog, of whatever the most precarious deadline was, then immediately break into hives as soon as I managed to get undressed, and in bed. No way around the full emergency dose of antihistamine. So it becomes a tug of war between anaphylactic shock and sleep, and finishing the last mechanical bit of stenciling and relaying the rent check, in person. I love the birds, but I'm beginning to wonder if their new intense ritual where there is a massive convention (like very large stadium seat count) of them surrounding and homing in on this end of the complex politely waiting their turn to teem the giant oak at the end of my breezeway, twice each day about about twelve hours apart. I've quit cutting through the courtyard lately because it's a slip and slide. They're having a feast of something that tree provides, and the rest of the whole area code doesn't interest them at all to this intense degree of focus, as that one tree. That tree has tons of acorns, but I don't think that's what they're eating. They are eating a lot there but I also think they're mating, and this is the vortex of the convention. So I'm starting to wonder if my ongoing sudden wild hives every 36 hours might be from some derivative of the oak, being more distributed in a larger radius around the tree. Having slept now though it really coincides more with the lake switch over every 36 hours. The pungency of the lake switchover was even stronger when I woke up the first time after the antihistamine knock out. I'm just uncontrollably sleeping more than I want to, and thinking about how to work around all this so I pull off the extra marathon to the appointment in the middle of nowhere to freshen up after roaming in desert conditions on Wednesday. I have to take the chair in order to deal with my files and keep them in the order I need to present them in. Plus the giant backpack needs to come with me in case I end up stranded out there if the appointment runs past the last connecting bus home. I have this fear of uncontrollably falling asleep on the way to, or during, the appointment, and so much feels like it's riding on it. I just need to get all the sleep I can between now and predawn, on Wednesday, focusing on packing the chair, and taking emergency crazy glue for my shoes. I cannot pull off cuff crutching this in order to try Lyft or Uber. Gotta go out on the fixed route bus, with the chair for the best postural support, and survival.
OY!! So glad you are there but so crazy that I am out of town today!! Dang it! BUT, at 3:13 seconds, you panned to the right and that middle window used to be Bob Dylan's apartment. The building is old and the famous Cafe' Espresso was on the bottom floor. That was the hang out! I also saw, at least 4 people I know! At 12:40 !!! Lenny Bloch!!! is in there! YAY! If you go down there early, you can see the cool Bearsville "compound" and check out Albert Grossman's favorite place. The food is good, too! Dang.. I will see you on Sunday, though! Oddly, I can get to Nashville but not to my own backyard this weekend! Have fun!!! WOODSTOCK loves you! The event is SOLD OUT!
Hi Leland - my wife and I spent four days in Woodstock in 2017 and stayed at the same lodge. Hope you can visit again as there are lots of great sites in the town and the surrounding area. There was also a weekend drum circle that was fun to watch.
Ah, beautiful Tinker Street! I Love the town of Woodstock, NY! The Woodstock Playhouse is where The Band recorded their Stage Fright album. There's also a beautiful Buddhist Monastery way up on top of the mountain! Thanks for posting, Leland!
What a nice tour. A little more grandiose than I thought. Reminiscent of the many tours you hosted all summer. The Jew in me accounts for like 65% of me! Enjoy your film!
What a beautiful place and no shopping trolleys in the creek. Wonderful hearing the quietness of the town and then bang the burble of a V8 almost mounting the curb. Reminds me a lot of some country towns here. Thank you for the walk brother. Magnificent tour. Enjoy your time and remember to sleep sometime. My heart goes out to the people of Florida. Would love to be in that audience. Cheers to all.🖐👌👍🙏
Wow I'm in my glory ! Levon Helm ,Rick Danko and Garth Hudson of The Band , getting a huge thumbs up on your channel .Now that was a rhythm section !! My favourite Band ever .
Thanks Leland. Worked in Woodstock for 17 years and lived close for many more than that. The amount of great music I’ve seen in that town is staggering. Levon, Rick, Paul Butterfield, John Hall to just name a few. My best friends still live there.
The Fugs! 🎶And I feel like homemade shit!🎶 Have a great time with the festival. Funny how a town that rejected the original festival now co-ops the name and logo of the music and arts festival from back when.
@@artemisXsidecross YES! Ed Sanders is still around. He was a big Bernie Sanders for President last election. Ed is still a political guy. Tuli died a few years ago. I always lol when I recall The Fugs
Back in 1987 , I visited Woodstock and it has not aged a day ! It's exactly as I remember it . Peaceful and laid back ! I lived in Monroe ,Upstate N Y for that Summer and it was incredible ! The sights ,sounds and experience of the USA is something that will stay with me forever . I'm eternally grateful NY .
Congrats on the film! I’ve been to Woodstock a couple of times recently for a show at Bearsville and another at Levon’s barn. Very enjoyable places,food, shopping, and people! Enjoy!
Great video lee, wish that walking footage had the trees in its Fall foliage colors. Oh, and spontaneous fan greetings was awesome. Can’t image how many times you’ve lived that moment. Yea,love this video👍😎
Oh my goodness! 😊 You started at Library Lane on the bridge I waited for the school bus every morning. We lived right next to the library. That‘s where in 69 I saw the poster announcing the Woodstock Music & Arts Festival for the first time. My neighbour Kurt, who was something like a stage hand, took me with him on all three days. You went past the Town Hall, where I saw my first Cinema Scope movie, on to the village square, where I met Robert Zimmerman for the first time. He was playing guitar and singing to it. I sat next to him watching closely on what he was doing on the fretboard. So he showed me my first guitar chords. Three days after the festival we went to Germany, where two years later I started to organize rock concerts to raise money for a youth club. We had Sly & the Family Stone, Ten Years After, Santana, Canned Heat, The Who… I still have all the bands‘ autographs and lots of memories. I remember being so impressed by all of the instruments I saw sitting on the stage at the Woodstock Festival (I helped lug the organ and the Santana percussion around) that I couldn‘t decide which one I wanted to play. So I decided to play them all - making a list. 😁 It took me some time, but today I‘ve got them all, and I can play whatever I had heard back then at the Festival on all of them. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹🎹🥁🎷🎤🪘🪘🪘 Thanks for today‘s tour and bringing back all the memories!
Hello lee and everyone. We are really getting spoiled with these walkabouts. I wouldn’t miss them for the world. 👏🏻 Love your comment about that a hole with that (big) truck. Hey lee, a bit nervous about how the audience react to the movie???? I’m sure they love it💕 fingers crossed. 😬😬😬😬 Love the town. Lots of green. 👍🏻 Must be a good feeling getting recognized once in a while by fellow bass players. 😎 Have a great evening
Thanks for the tour.......GREAT TOWN.......I wonder how many on here wish they could have gone to the ORIGINAL Woodstock!!!!!!!!??? MY HAND IS RAISED!!!!!! Hope the screening goes AWWESOME!!!!!!
I'm so excited for you! That screening of your movie must have a blast!! Congrats:) Seeing that small town makes me feel homesick. I can't believe I've never been to Woodstock having grown up in northwestern NJ and having gone to school at Syracuse U. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make a special trip!
Great, great, great... what a lovely walk through Woodstock. Is there a record store in Woodstock? Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer of them in the smaller towns, in contrast to the 1970s. Many thanks for the video!
I watch these on my phone, where my notification sound (as it was the one I hated the least) is the classic comedy rim shot. I'll be dammed that if I didn't get a notification just after you said you could've got a great deal at the therapy center!🤣😂
The town by appearances is indeed quite nice BUT it suffers from over priced homes and a very hi rental market. Its popularity has become its downfall as the community changed over the past couple decades. Gone are some of the finer venues like the Joyous Lake, Tinker st. Cafe, as well as restaruants such as Sha Woo's Sushi and The Little Bear. I lived here and in Bearsville back in the early 90s and could see the change beginning. I got out before it got worse.
I grew up across the Hudson River from Woodstock. Back in the 70's and early 80's we used to go there quite a bit. It is an old artist community with a lot of quaint shops and restaurants. There is a lot of music history between Woodstock and Bearsville. It was home to Bob Dylan, John Sebastian, and it's where 'The Band' recorded 'Music from the Big Pink'. It was where the 1969 'Woodstock Music Festival' was supposed to be held but a problem with permits forced the festival to be moved to the town of Bethel in Sullivan county.
Such a beautiful and relaxing looking town, this video gave me a Zen moment and provided a massive laugh at end. Lee, you should write comedy - the comment about the un-sanded beads…priceless.
Heheheheheheh hehehehehe! "Wish me love, a wishing well to kiss and tell. A wishing well, of butterfly tears, ...a wishing well of crocodile cheers" 😊 Lovely walk through Woodstock. Thank you Leland❣️
How interesting! My wife and I are going to Woodstock in 3 wks and we're staying at the Inn on the Millstream! I love that place! Did you get one of the rooms with the hot tub?
What a wonderful walk. I was nicely 420'ed and it was a treat. I love walking through old neighborhoods to see the proofs of settlement, the houses and the botanic life. Thank you.
@@artemisXsidecross they cant live here either Woodstock has been pricing out the middle class etc for decades now. Its the home of the 'trendy hipsters' with trust funds and wall street retirees
For many years, this was out "Black Friday" shopping destination. I recognized every square foot of your tour. The Spector custom-shop is just down the road. Thanks Leland!
Such a heavy and painful toll on so many. 😔🙏 Heartbroken. I'm actually feeling the final light gusts from the tail end of the storm here on the NC Coast.
I had to give up my New York trip planned for next week - belly is not quite up to snuff for big eating right now - I’m getting it better. BUT, I’m heading south to Disneyland/DCA to spend some time with a dear old friend since 1966. AND, I’m looking forward to seeing The Spinners and Poncho Sanchez on the way south! And plenty of Porto’s Cuban bakery goods including the new spot in Northridge.

Thank you for such a beautiful walking tour of Woodstock, Leland. I had no idea how beautiful a small town it is.
Another Leland Sklar guided tour! It’s wonderful how something so simple is so entertaining! Thank you, Lee. 🖕✌🏼
The USA certainly is not just one place. It is a collection of so many places, geographies, cultures, architecture styles. It is amazing
What a fun little walk through town. Thanks for taking us on this walking tour, just like being there. Have a great time tonight at the showing!
I have fallen in love with Woodstock. How cute.❤❤
Thanks Leland for being so kind to that nice gent who was inspired by his fellow BASSman!!!! Or should I say Idol!!!!
Twas me. I agree!

I thought that by the time you got to Woodstock you were 1/2 a million strong - hope there's lots of seats in the theater tonight.
Sold out!
