I graduated high school in 1969, and hadnt cut my hair in 4 years, a drummer in multiple garage bands, smoked as much pot as I could find, and everyone of like minds, the kids of this era immediately had a bond. A kinship that may never be duplicated. Instant acceptance no matter who you were or where you came from. I fell truly blessed to have lived every day of those days and to have survived to this day........ 72 years young and still rocking!!!
Me too, '69 HS grad. from Seattle. Saw some great shows, bands. Wonderful and beautiful time for me in spite of war and social unrest.
RIP Michael, thanks for what you created
Nah I don’t miss a guy who romanticized treating the people who went like animals in Woodstock 94 fans raided the vendors and there was trash and filth on the ground like 99 where they left 300,000 kids to boil in the sun with no water and the water that was free was contaminated by human feces, and if you’re a woman back then well get prepared to be raped or just have your clothes ripped off you forcefully. Sounds like he was a great guy by turning a blind eye to a lot just to make money.
I’m 30 years old and spent my childhood growing up with 60s and 70s music. Now I’m a dj and such. Eternally grateful.
Great music then .I miss it
@@wendiepate5983 So play some tunes!
I'm still at woodstock and the 60s and 70s in my mind, body and soul and always will be!
"We permitted for 50,000 but knew we would be planning for 200,000"
Absolutely insane.
Grateful my Mom passed all this on to me. 💞
"By the time we got to Woodstock we were half a million strong......"
My moms cousin was sent to Woodstock for the college paper. Said he hated it (absolutely stuck up, stick in the mud ... no shock). Coolest thing we found in his moms house was a jacket she made of pictures he took, turned into custom fabric. His mom (my great aunt) was amazing.
We need more people with this type of mindset. Getting together and being in a positive vibration.
The trick is to get that mindset to take hold while yet somehow also able to avoid the cringey / corny aspect that seems so often to accompany that way of life..
We have this. It's called Bonnaroo.
Sadly, it's that generation that's "in charge" now, and we don't really seem to be in any better shape as a country.
@@julieyap817 putting the counterculture in charge of a country is same as letting the Amish run a country; their mindset and values work great WITHIN a stable, conservative and free society but arent conducive to running a country.
Positive vibration or not those no ticket free loaders should have been arrested and forced to pay. Now I understand this was impractical , but think about the dichotomy of them cheating their way in , and purposing love and harmony at the expense of legitimate ticket holders, while crowding their spots , using their bathrooms and denning the rightful entrepreneurs of their well deserved ticket proceeds.
RIP Michael Lang, for your and others unique creation.
Yeah, and leave it to a dairy farmer to make me see the light. Influenced my
attitude after college and after several
contrasting jobs.
I was 7 years old in 1969 growing up in Saratoga Springs New York I cried when my Ma said she was going to Woodstock but would not take me .two of her brothers my uncles were killed in Vietnam.Growing up a hippy child and the music of that time was the beast ever.
Good Lord, sorry for your loss. Country Joe & the Fish tied important knot , incredible original song, " It's 1 2 3 what
are we fighting for ? Don't ask me I don't
give a damn, next stop is Vietnam ....."
And the tune which goes with the word... " Unlnown Soldier " of Jim
Morrison & the Doors ?
.
I Was Three Only .
I missed it because I was only five years old, but it affected everything I know about music. I feel fortunate that the summer of '69 impacted my soul and my life forever. I grew up in a time with no internet or cell phones, and it was better than anything currently in fashion. From Woodstock to Jesus Christ Superstar to Fleetwood Mac to Jefferson Airplane to The Doors to the Doobie Brothers to Lynyrd Skynyrd to CCR to Neil Diamond to Joan Baez to Linda Rondstadt to the Rolling Stones to Led Zeppelin to Deep Purple to The Animals to Ike and Tina Turner to James Brown to Janis Joplin to Jimmy Hendrix to Ram Jam to Sweet to ELO... the list is endless.
I'm very lucky to have been part of the Age of Aquarius.
Far out, man. Groovy. ✌️😎✌️
much peace n love be with you , always
RIP Michael Lang, Woodstock organizer, who died the other day
Aww. So many are passing away since this year has begun. RIP Michael Lang.
RIP 😔
No kidding??? Damn!
Wow hadn't heard that
Thanks for the heads up. I was not aware of that. This should have been on the coer of Rolling Stone magazine. I have been getting it for free since the 80`s until I die. That magazine has gone to the dogs.
The very best decades of music was the late 60s 70s and even into the 80s. Great Video THANKS ROCK ON.
The 90s were dope too.
Yea, we get it, you grew up then.
@@Bmancan84 nah. That’s an objective statement. Period.
@@jonp3890 well, you clearly don't know what objective means. Opinion is always subjective.
The mid to late 70s were bleak.
“Beware the brown Acid” now that’s a public service announcement. That’s information we can use.
Don't take the brown acid.. lol, my dad told me about that story, lol👍
We had a similar problem in the early 90s with The Coat of Arms/Purple Shield. It was too strong and it just F'd your ability to think.
Excellent - Thank you so much. I'm 69 and I'll never forget the summer of love.
I went to Woodstock on my 15th birthday. August 16th 1969. Wasn't there for all 3 days but...long enough. :D
Which band did you like the best ?
The bands that played at the Woodstock music festival, and everyone who went there, were unwittingly emissaries of peace to the entire world. Such an incredible peaceful event will NEVER happen again. Not a single person was killed there, just 3 days and nights of hardcore music.
One person died from an overdose .. so yes .. one person was killed ... an accidental killing ..🙏🕯️🌷may that person🌻Rest In Peace☮️🕊️😔
Couple of accidental deaths. One overdose and one guy was run over by a tractor picking up garbage.
I think two people were killed. A person was asleep on the ground and ran over by a vehicle. I think a baby or two were born. These people had no sense of responsibility. Dance around high on drugs how is that going to make peace. I'm sure most of these people were very bright and intelligent that after they got out of their immature drug-crazed fantasy world they went on to do great things in their lives.
@Janitor Queen Hi There 🙂🌻✌🏻 - so - according to you , all persons that are Conservative Republicans - what you describe as 'right wingers' ( I'm guessing you are a lefty liberal ) just want to kill anyone that doesn't subscriber to their political point of view , EH ?!?. 🤨 .. your lack of enlightenment is obvious... 🤔...apparantly you have been listening to increasingly socialist - spouting n.p.r. .. b.s. radio and agenda - laden m.s.m loons for too long.. not all repubs are thinking that way ... Please I strongly suggest to keep on educating yourself... Not all Conservative Republicans think like that ..every one of them ?!? 😮You are in error making a blanket statement about an entire category of people.. that is what nazis do..😮 and it reveals your closed - minded ignorance - which does not mean stupid - it just means a lack of knowledge .. . I hope you can learn.. You must be a millennial.. I am guessing here and yet I don't classify all millennials as ignorant lefties - I am probably old enough to be your parent .. I have been on this planet longer than you , although there is a high percentage of them that woefully are thinking that way ...sometimes wisdom gets better with ageing , sometimes not..🍀🤨.. all here is just my humble opinion ..we hopefully continue to learn and grow🧠 until we pass on .. even learning continues then too ..💢⚰️🙁... Good Luck🍀 with your life 's education...I have a strong feeling you will need it..🤨☺️😄🤞🏻🖖🏻✌🏻💪🏻🤳🤔🙄🙂
@Janitor Queen kinda like the Leftist 2020 'Summer of Love' with over 30 billion$ damages and many deaths by brutal assault, and Seattle's Chad City, etc.? Guess you have no clue. Anti-Establishment exists now only among 'Conservatives' aka Constitutionalists. That Left v Right garbage is still two wings of the same corrupt bird. Peace!
Remember when it was on...glad I wasn't there. But the music was excellent...still is. Great times to be in...thanks for this
Why glad you weren't there???
That's a very weird way of reminiscing about _the_ definitive cultural event of the 60s hippie movement..
@@88_TROUBLE_88 I grew up in the 60's and was happier not going to Woodstock. I have alot of great memories of the 60's

sorry to hear that

By far the greatest, most profound summary / quote for the entire event..
Having Mark Goodman hosting was like slipping on a favorite old jacket. He was always the most chill VJ back in the day, cool AF.
When the album came out, one day at noon I put my guitar amp in my dorm window, that overlooked the campus common, and ran my stereo thru it and played Country Joe's "Give me an F, give me a U....". That was my contribution to Woodstock.
So amazing
Glad you did, Marvin. My roommate and I found a patio umbrella , put colored Duck Tape on it, and stuck it out our dorm window. Your broadcast a better
explanation for need of stayin' alive !
Max was the real hero.
45:37 and Austin City Limits concerts. Produced by the same company as Lalloapalooza C3 Events. Rod Nielsen with Big House Sound here in Austin was a part of organizing the sound and lighting the first year here in Austin. The festival was fun when no one knew about it the first 4 years or so. But now a days it is too many people to be enjoyable. Woodstock can never be duplicated though. It was a special time with the right place and people to create that magic. It was captured by audio and film which is truly a blessing for those that could be there.
I would assert that it was an even bigger blessing for those who could not.
The second day of the first ACL fest was the best. Adult tix were under 20$ and the kids were free. Downhill ever since.
I was only 15 years old and barely got my feet wet let alone my mind. I saw Woodstock at the movie theater and it was my mom who took us not really knowing what we were about to see. This is what I believe was the turning point in America. The door was opened and look where we are today. To all who attended thank you, but please don't forget the roots of what was planted. Sadly I all see is a world turned upside down and spinning backwards. For some LSD is still reality and a clear thinking mind is where the nightmare begins. Hang on the ferris wheel is about to leave the station. PEACE AND WISDOM
I would have loved to have been old enough to go but I was only 9 years old at the time. But for 6 or 7 years I would have gone for sure. But I still got the 70's to be a teenager in and that was pretty darn good!
The best of times
My Father and his cousins drove from Chicago. They said the trip was just as fun as the concert.
Peace and Love from Colorado. "People in this World don't want No War! I heard them talking about this every day now"...Peter Broggs
I'm thankful my generation had raves. Nothing felt better than the first few and epic ones to follow. Peaceful, warm vibes.
all great until the serotonin gets permanently depleted from the happiness-inducing drugs...
@@joejones9520 Good thing there were no drugs at Woodstock!
@@CyberData4 no ecstasy then.
@@joejones9520 Yea, just good ole acid.
After they got done with this one, somebody said "Hey, lets try this again in about 4 months, this time out in California!
We'll get the Stones to play, and we can hire the Oakland chapter of the Hells Angels to do the security, yeah, that'll be groovy!"
Rolling Stones were the ones who put it on because they wanted a west coast one. They effed up with the "security", they had no idea that the English chapter of H.A. was vastly different than in the States.
I was there. Loved it. Glad I was there. By being able to say that always added to my cache.
Ok whatever you say. Your lifes biggest highlight. Wow.
@@Bmancan84 why would you write something like this?
How did you manage keeping track of people without cell phones? Seriously curious about this because we are so dependent on our phones nowadays
@@levity90
Why do you need a cell phone at a concert? Usually when going to a concert you go with a group of friends who in turn stay as a group.
How do you go to a concert? arrive as a group then split up.? So explain yourself about needing a cell phone at a concert.
@@paulomaeney7324 do you know how easy it is to get separated from your group in a crowd that large? You don't "need" a phone but it's definitely useful and it's absolutely changed the way people behave and coordinate with each other. Back then they must have had to been very specific about meeting spots and times
Odd I was looking for a new ws69 doc and figured everything thats can be said already was, but here we are
Thanks timeline!
I was old enough to attend. My dad was producing stuff like "Day on the green" concerts with Bill Grahm in Okland Stadium, which I was draged to by my dad. The people at these 1 day festivals were laid back and very few problems. I think it was 10.00 for a ticket general admission to see six or so great bands. Led Zeplin, Trower, Joe walsh. There was pretty much the same thing going on, pot, LSD and other hallucinongens.
I was personally escorted backstage when I drove up to DAY ON THE GREEN in about 78 or? Friend Randy Hansen played. Nice man Mr Graham to take the time to do that in no particular rush. I think Van Halen was there🙃😁
I had a poster showing a lot of these bands playing a concert at the Oakland Colosseum, in Oakland, California, but the admission was shown as $3.00, not $10.00! Haha! Now that I think about it, It was a "Grateful Dead" poster! And, the concert lasted for 3 days, and 3 nights! Round the clock music!
They expected 50,000, then 500,000 showed up. Now, many, many years later there are 5,000,000 people talking about their experience at Woodstock!!
Someone said "if you claim to remember woodstock, you weren't there".
How great it must have been being a part of those times.
I cannot describe how fantastic it was!
I can only say it really was the best of times.
Styx actually has an album that has that song on it. The Best of Times.
@@terrypbug :. Drugs were there, but the PEOPLE gathering, getting along, and just having fun, was what it was all about. PEACE, LOVE AND ROCK N ROLL!
@@terrypbug no it was just the overwhelming feeling of peace among those at that time
You're living it now. Those hippies are in charge now. Happy?
I have a friend who was at Woodstock. He later was elected mayor of the town I live in. I have on DVD the three hour and 45 minute Woodstock documentary.
Post it then plz
My moms cousin was 21 and a college paper photographer. He was sent to Woodstock from Washington state. Such a stick in the mud guy though, always said he hated it.
I was EIGHT years old, living in small town Canada when I heard the news ! Soon clips of WoodStock was flying across the TV. "I Gotta Go ! " I yelled. My mother was in the livingroom of our tiny apt. I think she didn't realise I REALLY meant it ! I packed my small suitcase, grabbed my savings Ihad hid away and walked enthusiastically to the local bus depot. I didn't know exactly where i was going. . . New York state. I had NO IDEA ! lol surely I could rely on people to show me the way. I hopped on the local bus and asked the driver, " which way to Woodstock ?" What ? Who he replied. Square, I thought. "New York. Woodstock ! the biggest and best event of the century !" "I don't know 'bout that but New York is a loonngg ways away. Where's your mother ? Is she taking you ? " "No I'm big enough to go myself"" I replied. " I don't think so, you better go home, young lady" aggghhhh party poopers.
As much as I tried, I didn't make it there, well not in the physical anyway. ROCK ON ! BTW I want to organize a smaller scale reprise to raise funds for NPO to benefit people. ANY TAKERS ?
What I wouldn't have given to be apart of this!
You really did miss out, but you can be there through other's eyes.
That's what I say, I'm like damn I was Born2Late ✌️
14yrs old in Chicagoland, and had my little transistor radio with me all weekend, because the radio station gave continuous updates and snippits of the performances.
I was there. The Hog Farmers gave me food. A little paper cup of oats and raisins and some water, I'm still grateful. Back then Wavy was still Hugh. One concert a guy climbed one of the sound towers and wouldn't come down even though thousands of people were telling him to. Finally he did. I remember the path from the concert area through the woods to the Hog Farm area, and all the dope merchants with their little setups.
What a beautiful little documentary! And I belive in change I sure wish that this generation that climes to on line would talk that same energy and let's do something real with it! Are world, country and fellow people are a jump off point and jumping in the wrong direction!! Stop waiting for the wrong people to tell you what way to walk... choose what way you know in your heart!!
There was a little event in Guy Arkansas called Woodstock Hangover Battle of the Bands in 1997.
Yes. RIP to Michael Lang who died on Jan 8, 2022. 🎶
I hadn't heard until I read the comments. I knew Michael in Woodstock circa 79 too 2006. RIP
Would loved to have been there. But unfortunately i was too young(15 mos old in AUG '69)
Yes Im always like I was Born2Late, lol✌️
Truly awesome documentary
Others may have mentioned it, but Sha Na Na was a group of Columbia University students appearing at Steve Paul's The Scene in NYC. There they became friends with Jimi Hendrix - and it was he who reccomended them for Woodstock.
After Woodstock entertained approx. 500,000 people in 1969, 4 years later there was the Watkins Glen "Summer Jam" in 1973 and more than 600,000 people were in attendance. The Grateful Dead, The Allman Brothers and The Band entertained the assembled group. I missed Woodstock, as I was only 14 years old when it was held but as an 18-year-old young man, I attended the Watkins Glen festival, and it was fantastic!
Starts off in the sixties with love and freedom and ends up they want take those things away at the end of the film. Sad.
We need another Woodstock now!
I might be able to get some black afhan
Thank you Michael Lang💖 you may be gone in this time, you will never be forgotten. You and friends put together a beautiful space & time.
I was 6 years old. Between my parents and relative and parents friend I completely grew up hippy and never grew out of it.thank goodness never will.🌝🌸
So lucky Richie Haven's invited me.. WOW!
You really should have talked about Ten Year's After performance......it was incendiary.....
Especially when after blowing our ears to shreds he picks up a watermelon onto his shoulder
Ten years after were the cream
@@james-le2rs Agree......however I love both bands and have each of all their albums plus live stuff.....Saw Alvin Lee open up for Sabbath during the "Mob Rules" tour. He rocked....
I was in Woodstock proper and never got to White Lake because I was the represented side from the ongoing combination of communities who as waiting for 500,000 to descend towards the bayous destinations out by running through Ulster Woodstock .
It never happened because nobody could take a fifth day and split in all different directs leaving us untouched except for the ooze of glory.
What saddens me is there is someone I knew that was a producer for Woodstock and he never gets mentioned. It's because of Michael Lang. This producer is the only person who has the entire concert on video. 17 videos to be exact.
No other event matched such a unique vibe that Woodstock had on history. Wish I could have been there. Sounds amazing ☮️
I live within walking distance of the original site. So funny how locals decried the festival but now it’s our focal point of the economy. They went from, I don’t want it, to if you use the name Woodstock you should pay Allen Garry. I wish I could go back to the days when you could hunt that field for deer. Now it’s overtaken by yuppie hordes trying to get a dollar.
Right on James. Every society has their Misfits.
I went to Woodstock 99’ and it was one of the craziest experiences I’ve ever had, I saw slot of terrible things but had slot of fun and met msny great people and a few bad ones. Crazy times
Was that the 3rd one or 2nd because am 45 and was going to one but it seemed earlyer then 99
@@jimmybright7579 I think 94
Rip mike lang.......rip shannon hoon too. God bless
We learn from history that -- we didn't learn from history --
I haven't seen Mark since I was a kid back in the early MTV days! ❤❤❤
mike was a special guy whom i've always felt connected to , it was a strange yet wonderful event [woodstock] n we can keep trying to live as those 3/half days taught us we can
Thank you so much I really enjoyed. That was the time I’m 80 years old now I still remember that time thank you I love you
Was 10 years old at the time the world was different then🤔♥️👍🙏

I will never take "old hippie" as an insult. I survived, and I still believe. They said I'd grow out of it. Well....there you have it. I'm still a tree-hugging earth worshiper who believes in a better way. Maturity has NOT changed my mind on major issues. But now, if offering them a space brownie won't solve the problem, I'd probably hit them with my cane. So that changed. LOL
excellent
Yeh, if someone offered me drugs today, I'd have to say, no, it might affect my hyperthyroidism, or my bad kidneys, or my visual impairment, or my arthritis, or my blood pressure. Sorry, I can't do it, lol. Thanks for the memory though.
We were on a very bad Road then, and it was a turning point. As well-intentioned as it was it put us on a worst Road that has led to the dystopia we are living in now
R.I.P., Michael Lang!! Thank you very much for Woodstock!! YOU showed the WORLD we could join together peacefully!! And so did those half million hippies!!
It makes me laugh to this day that they always state that when Roger sang See Me, Feel Me, they all claim the sun was coming up. Truth of the matter is that it was starting to get a little light out. But not to the point when the sun actually came up. When Jefferson Airplane played, the sun peaked out.
my recollection is that as the sun first broke over the mountain is when Pete started Tommy--capt walker etc----i still have my tickets
It could never happen now. The reason is because all those people who showed up at Woodstock had been brought up right. Nobody is brought up right anymore.
🙄🙄🙄 Oh, Gramma!
My dad was 17 or 18 at Woodstock. I asked him WTH did you do if you lost your friends at a time with no cell phones. I think that boggles my mind more than anything.
make new friends
OMG !! Heavens to Betsy even ! Biggest addiction on Earth hadn't happened yet !
at that event, you'd just make new friends. they'd hand you a joint. and Cell phones ?" you can't miss something you ain't never had", to quote Muddy Waters.
Smartphones are making people dumb
I thought that too, how would you find each other again , nowadays some one has a flag to hold up till all one back but then with half a million people even that's near impossible .-bud the painter-
It was all about peace and love
greatest music festival in the history of everything.
That would never fly these days, even without Covid. Too many regulations and red tape. The concept of private property barely exists these days. Want to hold a concert on your own property? Where's your permit? Ridiculous.
A few years later I saw Sha Na Na open for Frank Zappa...that was actually just right...it was New Years eve. Actually I should write a screenplay about that night. It was a very crazy night ,but a lot of fun.
31:40 In a interview Rolling Stone Magazine Carlos Santana said he was so high on mescaline he wasn't sure he able to play
He played the sheet out of it. I've listened to that live performance of Soul Sacrifice so many times I can nearly play it all back in my head.
Plenty of smaller festivals that still push the love and positive vibrations out…just gotta poke around (~);-)
Omg im so glad I wasn't there
I am so glad I was! I will never forget 1969! Best year ever & I am now 71!
I still wish I would have been there. Oh what a festival that was.
@@leslieschanock2797 right on ✌
me too, when I was younger I wished I had been there but that's when I had an idealized view of the sixties. Now, I cant stand useless, immoral people, especially ones that espouse their way to be the way everyone should be.
@@joejones9520 were you looking in a mirror when you wrote that last sentence??
Missed it! I was 18 at the time and had just graduated from High School! A friend of mine who had a van invited me to go with him, but another friend and I, had already planned on doing a little tour or our own being the fact that we were musicians ourselves. But, the music we played at the time was much different. I wish now that I had gone to Woodstock with the other friend instead. The tour I had gone on was boring and nothing interesting happened. When my other friend got home and told me all about the concert...!!!
Because the internet makes music free or incredibly cheap, real music-makers can no longer dedicate thier lives to sound-tracking our lives. Hopefully it sorts out sooner than later.
The documentary should have touched on the aftermath. The terrible amount of garbage and castaway tents,bags and other muddy trash left in the fields. The organizers promised to clean up the field for Mr. Yasgar. The promoters also initially lost a lot of money after paying for additional security, food and other supplies needed to care for the vast crowd. They eventually got royalties from the film and album sales. Also the logo with the bird perched on the guitar neck was a trademark. It would have been interesting to have seen Martin Scorsese in the documentary. He was a young filmmaker at the festival.
Right on Joseph. The people didn't care. They wanted to get high and listen to music. That's what drugs and hippie life does. Make people irresponsible.
Scorsese was one of the film editors.
Looks like it was good party 🥳
I've Always Said I Was Born At the Wrong Time I Was Born In The Summer Of Love 67 I Love The Music Of The Mid Late 60s Early 70s Loved To Been Around Back In Thoses Day's Keep On Rocking✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍

TOMMY was well known to the massive crowd by this time. in footage that wasn't in the original film, Pete starts the intro to 'Pinball Wizard', and the applause after hearing it all Summer on car radios and such, is very audible. it reached #19 on the Billboard charts at the height of it's U.S. success .
Wavy Gravy is an example of why you DON'T do drugs. But I have a lot of love and respect for Michael Lang, he created something from his bare hands and it became legendary. Michael deserved better than what he got at the last Woodstock.
Power to the People Power to the People Right On

28:45. wasnt it the brown acid?
I envy the ones who were lucky enough to be there. Id give anything to watch CCR play in their prime. What a privilege that was and they didnt even know it lol. What a time to be alive.
DID I MISS MENTION OF JOAN BAEZ? IF SO , WHY?
best documentary feature, which I guess, means more than 90 minutes. that was big time. that a bunch of longhairs won an Oscar. it was a case of 'just rewards'. if you buy it, get the deluxe version, w/ 'extras' on it. you'll see Creedence, Janis, My Generation (which was TheWHO's encore), ending w/ Pete's SG being pounded into the plywood, but still in one piece.
Prob for copyright reasons, there's no music.
I fully agree that a hallmark was Jimi Hendrix's discordant anthem,
and I would add Country Joe's "Give me an F, iive me a U, igve me an C, give me an K, ",
at a time when people were in jail for uttering this holy word.
I was born way too late..... I've always said it must have been great growing up in the 50s and 60s as a kid. I love the TV show "The Wonder Years" and even "That 70s show". Great music, great cars, the families had values and morals and ppl respected each other. I enjoyed my childhood too, but growing up in the 80s and 90s will never come close to the 50s and 60s
