My first job was cooking hamburgers at Woodstock at 17 years old. I heard sizzling and didn't pay attention to the music. I made $5 an hour, I was rich.
Hey Phil did you meet any of the singer's that preformed at Woodstock, like Janis Joplin and such?
I wish you were still there flipping burgers a few yrs ago because there's nothing around there to get a proper bite to eat.
I didn't know that was a lot of money back then, due to the fact, I wasn't born yet. 🤷🏻♀️
👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
What an awesome experience, haven't heard anyone talk of Woodstock at all and I'm 63 now I only saw what I saw on TV . Well you have a story and thank you for sharing, glad you have a positive attitude out of it.👍❤️😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
As you were driving there I could hear Canned Heat playing in my head!! I'M GOIN TO THE COUNTRY......BABY DO YOU WANNA GOOOOOOO!!!!!???🤣
I’m a 60 year old baby boomer who thrives on rock ‘n’ roll it has been vital my entire life, it has pulled me through very dark moments. This is my favorite of your videos. I actually have tears in my eyes right now, thank you so much!
I’m 60 too! Wasn’t that just the most amazing time to be growing up! The music of the 60’s and 70’s is still my music! My Dad was a college professor at the time & used to make Peace symbol tie pins & pendants & handed them out to students & colleagues at the College as gifts ..
@@1927su we hit the jackpot of childhood. Such great times
All the time for music my favorite was the British invasion OMG , Shocking Blue , The Beatles , ZZ Top , Chuck Berry ,just missed Elvis . Thanks for tunes . Unbelievable music .
So well said. At 70 years now in 2024 this is a beautiful and meaningful site now and for those of us who came up in the period it strikes deep to the soul....I understand the tears !!!! Great Job on this video. You captured detail that recaptured the True Spirit of this event which makes it historic and totally unique
This was definitely my brother Dan's thing. He left KS headed for Woodstock came home 3 months later via Tijuana. He enjoyed himself at Woodstock for sure. Thank you for bringing him back to me in this vlog. He's been gone 25 plus years now. Thank you kiddo 🌻
Dude!!! Jordan!!! Your on a hot streak! I honestly don’t believe you have a bad video! You keep getting better! I’m enjoying the hell out of the ride! Once again Jordan, THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!! 🙂
Jordan, to answer your question about Sha Na Na… It was Jimi Hendrix that got Sha Na Na on the bill. He saw them perform their shtick at Steve Paul’s ‘The Scene’ in NYC and was impressed. He turned the promoters on to them and rest was history. They actually performed right before Jimi Hendrix on Monday morning 8/18/1969.
By far the most famous music festival that ever existed. We are to lucky to have this much amount of photographs and videos of the event!
Jimi still blows my mind with that solo! nobody has and never will come close to sounding like that.. it gives you cold chills listening to it.. still! that's a beautiful place! glad they're taking care of it... I'm jealous.
As far as the Ali Vietnam draft goes. I know damn well most of those boys didn’t want to go to that hell hole either but didn’t have a choice. Like my Uncle. RIP
Thank you, Jordan, for bringing back some memories! I was too young at 13 yrs old to go to this festival but really wanted to and I remember seeing the news coverage. It is hard to imagine all of those people crammed in there, but I saw the pictures to prove it! I will always love Rock & Roll history!
I was 8 years old and I too wished I would have been old enuf to go too!
Wonderful vlog. I was 13 in the summer of love. Had the album and saw the documentary. TFS
Thank you for documenting this, some of us may never visit New York. 🎬 We appreciate you buddy. ☮️☮️☮️
The next day Hendrix played in Harlem for free. The Airplane stole the show with "Won't you try" I'm a lifelong Deadhead. Not their best.
Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your trip to Woodstock! This is beyond groovy and far out! ☮️✌🏻🕊
Oh yeah we all wore love beads, hip hugger bell botton jeans (the more patches the better) neo colors were the rage along with wild pasley print. Years later we wondered how many babies were consieved at Woodstock lol. To be young during the Summer of Love. Hippies never age we just mellow out.
👍🤗✌️
I remember wearing hip hugger jeans with bell bottoms that I bought at the Army-Navy Surplus store. They had several buttons on each side on the hips to keep them up and you had to unbutton part way down to use the toilet! LOL.
Yay! Thank you for this vlog!
Awesome vlog Jordan, well done. We were just there early May and I loved it. The museum is full of incredible memorabilia, the wood across the street where vendors would have been called Bindy Bazaar is a nice trail and just that beautiful green hill where everyone was. You feel somehow connected to that time. A must see.
This is a once in a lifetime moment. This one event changed music forever. It made people and bands careers. Great vlog Jordan.
A gem of a video. Absolutely loved this. Thank you so much Jordan!!! Blessings - Judith 🎭
Awesome video Jordan 😎✌️🎶☮️ the thing didn't say CCR they were a band that played on stage at that time, the drummer drums fell apart while he was still drumming lol
Hi, we actually have been curating the Museum Store for 15 years. Thank you so much for stopping by! We always try to bring in authentic Woodstock Merchandise for new and returning customers. So happy you noticed! We have an online shop you can visit for anyone who can’t make it in person. Amazing video :D
I literally do not count Woodstock 99 as Woodstock in general! It had the title, but the genre of music they brought did not bring peace, loving people it brought a different generation of people listening to experimental music along with people rebelling back in the 90s.
It has nothing to do with the artistes that they brought, but the kind of music they made was for those kinds of people.
If the festival was renamed something entirely different people wouldn’t complain because it wouldn’t harness the Woodstock Legacy. It would’ve been a different festival. In the Netflix documentary the people that were involved in the original festival even said this was nothing like the original Woodstock because it literally was not.. 😢
Hi Jordan, oh, I would have loved to have gone to Woodstock, but, I would still like to just go to this place and just close my eyes and imagine the atmosphere of what it must have been like. I like all the message rocks around the tree. So cool to see original items from the Festival. Great vlog Jordan.
@James Hama Go away, creep.
That Field is Energized My Brother ;] PEACE ☮️ ✌️Man!! It’s Far Out…Can You Dig It?? ❤️ 💕 LOVE is Groovy 💗 🌸 🌺 ✌️ 🎵 🎶 🎵 PEACE ✌️ 🕊 🎸 🕊 JIMI!! LOVE Ya Man ;] Marijuana!! 🍃 ☮️
I too went to Woodstock....but in 1994. An Irish guy in USA trying to rediscover the 1960s. It was the same time that evil emerged from Spahn Ranch at the Polanski house. But they were not real hippies. The real hippies were at Yasgur's farm. It was a dream. Yes, there was mud and rain too. But there was something hauntingly beautiful there too. Joni Mitchell captured this fleeting beauty too amongst the mud and aroma of marijuana down in Yasgur's farm. It was fleeting but it had the beauty of a psychedelic rose ☘🇮🇪☘
Hey Jordan…I love your channel but I was wondering if you will return to CA. to do your blogs again, or are you moving somewhere else? I ask because in my opinion, those were your best ones!! You went many places in CA and I never missed a one. Why did you leave there? CA has SO many great stories!! From places to go..and I loved the houses of celebrities, so many great stories there. Please answer if you can. I asked this question before and you didn’t answer it. I would REALLY love to know!!!! 🌞🌹😎🤗🌴
Nope, never moving there again. Sorry. Take care
You didn't know who Alvin Lee was when I asked you. He was one of the best guitar players in the world in the band you just read off of the plaque. The band he was in was "Ten Years After". Lee, you should know that. He also played with Presley's guitar player, Scotty Moore. Dude, educate yourself on TYA. You've mentioned everyone who didn't rock nearly as much. Ten Years After literally dwarfed everyone else with the exception of Hendrix. Watch the movie!
I was 14 at the time and busy selling watermelons at my parent's convenience store. Boy, did I miss out on something.
I wish I could travel back in time to witness Woodstock. The suburb I live in the street names are bands and festivals from the 60s. I live on Woodstock Drive, there's Fleetwood crescent, Bowie court, ashbury drive, Taylor Street.
💋Super Cool Vlog! I have the Woodstock collection! Such amazing performances! Richie Havens Freedom is my favorite! Continued Blessings and Support. ~Love&Light♥️Carli
Great vlog Jordan...I can so relate to those times...I'm a old hippie from those days. I wasn't at Woodstock because I was on tour, but I did play the Texas International Pop Festival in August of 69...
Awesome I wish I had been there!!!!!
To think I lived in the Wallkill area for 4 years in the mid 1980’s and didn’t realize I passed that area of Woodstock several times. The farmland in Wallkill would have been a big mistake to have a concert. The promoters made the best choice in location. That part of Upstate New York is beautiful to connect with nature but the winter snow is brutally cold so back to my California I returned. The fall months were beautiful with the multicolored foliage. I have the Woodstock concert video and watch it often. Great performances & life changing experiences. Thanks Jordan for all your great vlogging. Give the Jahster a hug for me❣️❤️🙏🏻🐕🦺🌈
I love the hippies man the music the intensions of hippies wow a big HIPPIE SALUTE to all the hippies and music people of the world thanks for another kool great video jordan
Enjoy upstate New York, a beautiful place in my state!
It was muddy and overcrowded but it was glorious on Yasgur's farm 🚜 👌 😀
I visited the site 3 years ago and was in awe! There is such a special atmosphere there!
Bringing back nice memories of Woodstock. I was asked to ride along to this peace concert, but was unable to go. This was probably better as would have been stuck in the
traffic road there. Everyone just left their vehicles and walked . Thanks Jordan
The reason Sha Na Na performed is Jimi Hendrix was friends with guys in their band and he liked their music.
He said he would not perform unless Sha Na Na performed.
That’s why they were there
GREAT TOUR THANK YOU JORDAN. I LOANED MY TENT TO A CONCERT GOER. CAME BACK MISSING POLES. BTW. GLASSED WERE CALLED ☆☆☆GRANNY GLASSES☆☆☆ 🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦
I wasn't born until 1980 and I've ALWAYS been fascinated with Woodstock I wonder if we ever had past lives?
Thanks for the great start to the day with Woodstock locations, peace love and harmony ❤️ for ever ❤️ best show in history. 69
If we can only go back to that time,, where us hippies only wanted love peace hope , no hate ,, no wars, but to live as one,,, in peace,,, thank u you Jordan, for showing, this video, hopefully every one who sees this , can spread the love ❤ threw future generations,,,
I love music but sitting in the pouring rain and only a few bathrooms does not sound like fun
Liked the vlog from Margaret Parker from England
Wow that was great! What a trip that would have been to be there. Ty Jordon! I'm going to watch the documentary now. I was young when Woodstock happened, l new a guy that went and it took over a week hitchhiking to get back to Georgia. What a great guy that let them have it on his farm. Ty for taking me along! Belly rubs to Jah!❤
I have been there a few times. Woodstock and the 1960s was a very special time. The museum is amazing. Thank you for doing this GREAT video.
Too bad you couldn't see the site and its pristine condition before they turned it into a tourist trap
I was 8 years old when this occurred! It was such an interesting time to grow up in!
My Dad was a college professor and was not a fan of the Vietnam War & soldered together little peace symbol tie clips , to wear with his tie. And he made peace symbol pendants too, and handed them out to students and colleagues. He even grew his hair long & I remember his conservative Mother( my grandmother ) was mortified!!
I have to share a funny story from back then…Thinking
my Dad liked
All THINGS “FLOWER POWER”, I saved up my allowance and snow shoveling money, and bought these giant day glow flower stickers that you could put on cars! And while my Dad was at work, I plastered my Dad’s antique vintage collector Morris Minor truck, with all these cool permanent stickers!!
Omg when my Dad got home from work I just couldn’t WAIT TO SHOW HIM my SURPRISE!!!
Well…. My Dad wasn’t as
“COOL” as I thought! Lol! He was FURIOUS! It took me a WEEK to get all those stickers of that collector truck ! We still laugh about it from time to time!
My Dad was in the Korean War he was the opposite of your Dad. I grew up in a militaristic family but I was different even though now I am a conservative. My Dad HATED my music but he was a cool dad I miss him.
I really liked this presentation. Great video!
@James Hama OK. hope you are as well.
What a treat Jordan !!! Thank you so much for taking us along with you 🙏❤️
Excellent presentation !! I never tire of Woodstock stories, I was 9yo at the time and like you, I have always felt a deep haunted connection to that event.
The Hippies shut down the 87 NYS Thruway or “The Thruway”. ✌️
There is only one Woodstock in my eyes. 👀
I heard Alvin Lee's Bass player say seeing all the great musicians walking around the motel waiting for their helicopter rides blew him away. He was such a fan of many. When arrived the concert site getting off the helicopter he was real hungry but they told him not to eat the food because it had Acid in in it.
I still have my three record set as well as the reel to reel tapes from the event. Some of the greatest rock music ever. The crap being produced today and being called "music" is just that, CRAP!
I totally agree with you!!!! I was 15 in ‘69 but couldn’t go bc I lived in L.A.
Great video Jordan, Woodstock is my eara, my home has a room all Woodstock,, you where not far from me , iam still a old hippie
WOW, Jordan! Felt as if I was there! Thank You! 👍🤗✌️
Very cool video. I (Steve) went to the town of Woodstock to see where the festival was. Didn't realize that it was actually in Bethel 🤣. Because of that mistake I didn't get to the spot because of time restrictions. Thanks for letting me be there until I get there in person. The town of Woodstock was pretty cool tho .
Unfortunately I was only 9 years old when this festival was held but I have always wished I had been older so I could have attended. I just don't think anything comes close it Woodstock! You should try to get an interview with arlo Guthrie, he has had such an interesting life.
I was like 12 yrs. that was interesting I've heard of Woodstock. impressive lineup of those that played thanks Jordan🤩
Fantastic.....as per usual. So interesting, thank you from Derbyshire, England.
This was awesome! I love seeing anything history. You hear so much about Woodstock but all you can do is imagine it if you weren’t there. This Vince’s a better perspective and understanding of it. Plus the reason behind it which I never knew. Thanks so much, Jordan! Keep on being you! 🦴🐾❤️
The film "Woodstock" does a decent job of showing what it was like. Martin Scorsese was the stage manager for setting up the acts for filming.
Love your work !!
I love this ! Well done !! ☮️✌️👍
You brought back some great memories....I had to return back to work so I missed Jimmy Hendricks playing the National Anthem.
My best friend went to Woodstock with two gfs. They tied a rope around their waste to connect them so they didn’t loose each other.
Linda, you wrote "They tied a rope around their waste...". That is hilarious.
So glad it mentions Sweetwater. They were one of the first bands to perform & not much is said about them. The singer if I remember correctly had some major throat injuries in a car accident not long after they started getting known. She fell off radar, I think it was VH1 that did a story on them & brought the band back into the public eye. Also. If I'm not mistaken the singer started singing again.
I was so, so close to going... i was 16 and in San Francisco... but no car of my own... i thought of stealing my parent's car, but thought against it... maybe hitchhike...?? Damn, I remember it all soooo clearly, and this was a wonderful trip down memory lane though it wasn't my memory... just had to pretend that I got to see my heroes Keith Moon, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix... Thank you for sharing the memories I didn't get to have! (Well, i did get to finally see Janis at The Family Dog in SF before her passing, at least!)
I was 15 and lived in Los Angeles at the time! Wished I could have gone too! I doubt my parents would have let me go even if my older sister who was 18 went...she didn’t end up going but I would have been very pissed if she went and I didn’t get to! I’m sure she wouldn’t have wanted me to tag along with her and her friends lol
@@vickiladu6755 We were both so, so close, huh... you were closer to going than i was... so you're first place loser, i'm second place!!
Thank you for this. I am 64 years old and grew up listening to these great bands.. I just read that Richie Havens was cremated and had his ashes dropped from air at Woodstock! Wow! Thank you again! I am from Covington, OH almost neighbors!!
That's really cool! I didn't know that!!!!
I’m 60, and wasn’t that an interesting time period to grow up in!
I read that the site was going to be used for Woodstock's 50th anniversary in 2019, but was cancelled. Thats unfortunate. I seriously doubt we will see this site ever be used for music festivals again.
It shouldn't be used again. The other anniversaries have been an embarrassment compared to this.. at least put the next embarrassment on some other land..
@@DazewithJordantheLion I was wondering if you were going to visit this site. I did a five day trip and visited five museums. The baseball HOF, Woodstock, West Point and FDR library in upstate New York and the National Civil War museum in Harrisburg Pennsylvania on my way back home to Virginia. Are you planning on visiting any of the military museums in Virginia? The Army and Marines are down the road from each other and the Navy is down town Washington DC. You did an amazing job on the Air Force museum in Dayton Ohio
It is now the Bethel Woods Performing Arts Center. Live concerts there all summer long.
Wow jordan, what a video! Although I wasn't there it was still a trip through memory Lane. I know quite a few people who went there and the stories were fabulous. Thanks a million, great job!
Wow!!!! That’s a huge area!!! Thanks Jordan ❤️ The Hippie era great times!! Love the bus 🚌 ☮️
Fabulous Jordan thanks for the visit to Woodstock another place I'll likely never get to see but feel like I have with you 😊
The Hog Farm played an important role in this. Food, medical, cleaning. They did it
This was GROOVY!!
Thanks for the video, I definitely have to get there someday!
Привіт з України 2024 Шалом Православні Шалом Арійці розуміння себе та процесів що відбуваються в всесвіті 😉❤❤❤❤ всім людям доброї волі ☮️☮️☮️☮️❤❤❤❤❤ дякую що показали легендарні місця ідеї Вудстока актуальні і сьогодні як ніколи
I was 16, my sister 19. Such memories.
Did you get to go to the festival??
Brilliant Jordan
Remember the festival well. I was 17 and living in southern Albany County NY so wasn’t that far away. It was all over the newspapers and night time news. Following year the movie came out and the 3 record album soundtrack. Some bands I did not know of like Santana, Country Joe and the Fish. It was a turning point in time for sure.
Were you actually there?
This is so cool. I just read that Richie Havens ashes were scattered at the Bethel site
Wasn’t born yet
Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Ten Years After, Santana, Joe Cocker, Sly Stone, CSN&Y, Canned Heat, and Arlo Guthrie were the best there.
I went to woodstock
Though I didn’t attend Woodstock I was 5 years old , but we were traveling and got caught up in the traffic on route 17 I remember my dad cussing up a storm puffing his pall malls !
Thank you for this vlog….I was just married for one month in August 1969, we were thinking of going but hearing of all the traffic jams, etc we decided against it…big regret!
No Beatles, Kinks, Clapton, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan.. just imagine if they all performed 😳
First child I was carrying so I knew I wasn’t going to attend and good thing I gave birth to my only child, a boy. Come from a small Boston town, CHARLESTOWN , MA. I’ll bet you half of the hippy kids were there. They still talk about it.
♋☮☯✳✴❇🎤🎶🎸🎺🎻🪕🎷🌠🪶✌💌💯 " Great Video "
Sister and Brother in-law spent there Honeymoon here. Said I could have the back seat. Mom said they would need there privacy! Laughed out loud!. 🤠✌️🎸🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🌄
A friend of mine just posted a FB update about his visit to the McIntosh headquarters in New York. They have one of the original amps used at Woodstock just sitting in a corner there... Crazy....
R.I.P. the great Michael Lang (Dec. 11,1944 - Jan. 8, 2022)
Thank you. Well done! I went to Bethel a couple of months ago. My favorite part was talking with the ticket taker who brought up an interesting questiion: "Why isn't Max Yasgur in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?" Woodstock, the greatest rock and roll concert of all time, would not have happened without his heoic involvement. I hear a number of people saying that the hall would not exist without Michael Lang and Artie Kornfeld. I will say they would not even be considered for the hall had Max Yasgur not come to their rescue.
The last day of the festival in the morning before most people woke up, 2 jet fighters did a flyover with sonic booms. The military was trying to make a statement.
😅😂🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂Hippies use side door!😂😂🤣😂
Awesome mate. Really enjoying your channel. Great stuff. From New Zealand.
lol....what you said about...
SHA NA NA....I thought I was the only one who didn't get what the hell THEY were doing there.😄
The Site of Woodstock is on my Pilgrimage bucket list. Currently in Massachusetts not too far away. Maybe this year. While I’m from California was actually traveling with my family on the East Coast at the time in 1969, but didn’t hear about it until the Movie
Far out man !!
What’s up Jordan? How are you doing good brother just wanted to say hello and I hope all is well with you! As always I thank you for posting amazing videos you are absolutely an amazing person and I’m truly blust that you get to bring us really cool places that you visit and that’s awesome man I never knew were the 1969 Woodstock was at until you told me that’s pretty neat man do you even have a plaque to mark the spot that’s cool! Anyways I just want to say hello and I just wanted to say thank you for everything it would be cool to talk to you someday! One of my favorite videos that you post it was one you went to The Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village and The Ty Cobb visit to Royston, Georgia, and I’m a huge Detroit Tigers fan so that’s awesome that you could do a video about one of the greatest baseball players of all time but he also played for the Detroit Tigers for most of his MLB career
