Digg your thinking man! I was born 14 years after woodstock in a different time. My dad was 18 in '69 but the music and the mindset of that time is so powerful you can still feel it today! You guys generation had something to say and it stick untill today. It may be 50 years ago but still actual today. You guys started something and we carry it on

@@Just_another_Euro_dude Agreed. My mother gave piano lesson's for 41 years (she used the John Schaum books). My sister play's the piano for (I cannot say in a public chat). She is weird but goodness, can she play. Sadly as we all get older, we realize, not to focus on just one group, but many. Differing styles/types of music.
It's not too late to bring back peace 🕊️ and love❣️ We need it more than ever now. We're the ones who are supposed to show this generation all the beautiful ways we were taught 🌺🌈❣️🕊️
I was born in '69 to a mother who had the long braids hanging below her rear, patches on her jeans, raising me on ALL the woodstock music... WHAT CULTURE!!! 👍🏻 And I can remember as a little girl, the Woodstock song blasting through our stereo system, and vibrating our trailer walls! It's no WONDER the music speaks to me😄 Well, besides the fact the artists are PURE GENIUS 🎊
thanks buddy---i popped out in 66, but my parents weren't very 60's at all--mom was a little more, and at least used to drive me to some of my band gigs in the early 80s, but they were generally very 50's and dad wasn't anti-establishment at all, and has never liked much other than bag pipes,so your pretty lucky there. it's rather amazing my bro and me were as anti-establishment as we are.
Funny...I was the same. I was born in '62. My mom was not musical at all and my dad was into the old twangy country music. But I remember in my early teens my brother got me into the Beatles. And from there I got into all the 60's music. And still love it!!! Nothing today can even come close to it. This past May (2022) finally got to make the pilgrimage to Woodstock to see the Who!! Peace and Love to all the hippies still out there!!
I recently visited Paris and I came back marveling at Montmartre and the Mouling Rooge. After that drive to Brussels, Strasbourg, Lucerne and Geneva in Switzerland. And I went back to Paris.
Serious question, How did so much amazing music come from this era? was it a rebellion to everything due to the vietnam war or just a strange time in history!? Seriously, young people today are amazed by this era .. raw talented musicians and non-computerised music!
I've been asking myself the same question. Back then you had to be really good to sell your albums to the public and get put on the radio. Today's climate is different perhaps? I'm not sure what it is about today that makes the music not as good.
Youth from that Era could have only dreamed of the 2010s, our version of the 60s minutes the music. The last decade had everything a 60s revolutionary could want, world's music library at fingertips, legal weed, no vietnam. The music came from the struggles sure, but the pre covid generation would not have been as free as they were without the 60s middle finger to the 50s
It was a time of rapid change and all of the resulting societal upheaval that came with that change. We still had people alive that were born in a world without electricity, or cars or running water.. much less hot running water. Or mattresses or refrigerators or washing machines or private bedrooms or... Technology was just beginning it’s rapid progression. As a society we were still innocent. Still just human beings. Skinny healthy ones too! Uncorrupted.. also uninterrupted by advertising and market/tech driven pop culture. There was one phone at home that the whole family used, which was sufficient given the only people that wanted to talk on the phone were largely just teenage girls. No internet.. no computers! Lucky if your house had a color tv! But tv wasn’t important because we still had nature. Clear clean lakes and rivers with the sweetest water and full of fish, frogs and crawdads, lined with thick lush greenery. Floating docks and rope swings there for all to enjoy. And public pools and skating rinks and sports in the streets! Traffic was only a thing that happened in big cities. The population explosion is a big piece of the picture. In 1970 we were 203 million Americans, a huge jump from 181 million in 1960 152 million in 1950, less than half of today’s population and the rough birthdate of someone who was at Woodstock to see CSNY play. As a country we were still young and this country was still full of life and astounding natural beauty, wide open spaces and seemingly infinite opportunity.
Amen, brother. That's for damned sure. I like their music, but it is too damned bad that these libs didn't understand the importance of that then and now.
We need this spirit again, Music about peace and love. Now we are in a world of hate. I am 70 years old in 2024. If I could I would go back in time to this place. I would also warn them of the hate that is to come.
Thank God I had the incredible luck to live in those times. The world will never be that psychedelic, fun and free again. When I watch clips and hear music from the ''hippy era'' it hurts my heart to think its gone forever.
David Elliott. The world was freer then?! They drafted men to go to war then! Now women and men can choose to fight or not. Now we have pot more legalized! I heard on the news last nite talk about psychedelic drugs getting legalized soon! I feel now is much more free than then in ways. But not in other ways! Crazy!
@@andyrock6481 The last hippy goes extinct and elderly rappers say how special now was when they carried their cell phones everywhere, never spoke to each other except on the internet and all the other great things that are so wonderful now. And the beat goes on...
I am 73, and grew up in the SF area right in the middle of the best of times and the best of music. I am sure every generation says their music is the best, but seriously we did have the best, most heartfelt, creative expression of music. It was an explosion of a new world coming from the ozzie and harriett mentality of our parents and their blind belief the government could be trusted. Many of my younger friends always say I am stuck in the 60's, and they are right. I always tell them NOTHING has come along since then to replace those days. peace, love and fuck the man.
I graduated from high school in 1968 . Starting the hippie era . Wonderful music - like this . Long hair , hippie clothes enc. bell bottoms - loved them . Relaxed , and fun times . Lots of new , special music , and bands! Remember it all well !
I graduated in the Netherlands 1969..being 19 years old . the most fantastic year of my life ..still living for the music of those decades... we know it all isnt it ..I think that one time in eternity!
I'm 71 n in Aug 1969 I was in the military if I wasn't I would have been there Love this song n in Nov 1969 I saw Janis Joplin In Phil great show lots of memories
Neil's "4 dead at Ohio" was history...watched a documentary that interviewed the young girl standing beside the girl lying dead on the road ( famous Time photo) when she went home her dad greeted her at door & said she shlda been shot too for standing against America...what a sickness & it continues today with all the GB America bull sh..
Brilliant version of a Joni Mitchell classic. "We are stardust. We are golden." I hope your trip back to the garden is golden David. Godspeed. Thanks for blessing the soundtrack of my life.
Joni could have made it to Woodstock, but settled for seeing it on the TV a few miles away instead of trying to find a helicopter ride over the crowd. Morale of the story: don't miss your moment, as it may not come again
@@j-5087 She had her first national television program on Monday after Woodstock. It was the Dick Cavett show. They were concerned that she might miss the show if she went to Woodstock so they decided to miss Woodstock thus ensuring her appearance on the Cavett show.
When I die, I will ask my lord if I can go to Woodstock right away. That will be my first trip in the after world. I will be driving my 1968 GTO all the way there!
Right on! I'll be there too! The three most beautiful days of the century took place there. The stars were aligned and it all fell into place. ...got to get ourselves back to the garden.
I was just a kid in high school in western Nebraska when we heard of a huge concert with our favorite bands performing.. We convinced one of our friends to take a group of us in his beat up VW van to Woodstock even though we didn’t have any money or even know for sure where Woodstock was. But we were too young and stupid and just thought we’d figure things out as we hit the road. So we skipped out of school, made up stories of spending weekend with friends for are parents and headed east. We didn’t make it 20 miles when the van broke down and crushed our Woodstock plans. Still love their music.
Yeah I read about that. But I heard they just didnt realize it was going to be such a big event! I remember robby krieger talking about how he regretted missing it. Cant remember exactly though...
I lived through this era… LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT… STILL TODAY THE BEST OF MUSIC EVER… CSN&Y the best.. Sion & Garfunkel… Sly & The Family Stone… Eagles, Peter Cetera, Chicago!!! On and on…❤
I was 13 when the movie came out. I couldn't see it because I was too young. I was SO jealous of my older sisters. They said people were dancing in the aisles at the movie theater. I remember when the CSN&Y version of Woodstock was playing on the radio. I would be walking down the street with a little AM radio playing it and I thought the youth/hippy culture was so cool and ascendant and going places. You would look at somebody with long hair like you and just know you had something in common. When I finally saw the movie in 1976 at a rerun theater kind of place, I was just mesmerized, especially by Sly, Ten Years After, Santana, The Who and Hendrix. You could have knocked me over with a feather.
Not a care in the world . Everyone came together for a almost a week of Music and fun . No violence or shootings or cellphones . Only a few port a potties for all those people but oh well that looked like a very awesome place and time .
I was born in the wrong era, i have the heart and soul of a true hippie... It truly breaks my heart that I missed one of the greatest moments in history! Woodstock was a one time only thing. It will never and CAN NEVER be recreated!
I so feel your pain. I too was born too late. But I am a true Hippie and have been all my life. The 60s and 70s should go down as the generation that started moving this Country forward thinking. I missed Woodstock too. You are so right that it can NEVER be recreated. We have lost too many artists. 🥲
Same I've always said and truly felt that I was born in a wrong Era I was born 1977 my mom was too young to go to Woodstock but her sister was 18 and she went she said it was a true life experience and she was grateful to experience it she said it was a once in a life time deal that the vibe the love it was everywhere so majestic! I can't even imagine but to see videos of Woodstock it always perceive such peace and joy I can feel it sò deeply!!
WOW I was only just born in 1970 but I really appreciate my parents exposure to this entire era of music. This generation is almost gone but never forgotten. Thank you David Crosby.
I saw this movie the day it came out..in Austin. On Congress BLVD. have watched it many times since. A brilliant movie. And a time that changed our world.
My father stormed the beaches of Normandy France. He fought the Nazis in the hedge rows, he killed horses so the French could eat, he survived and created me. He never complained or spoke about his experience on Omaha beach. Me and my friends complained about the rain and mud in Bethel N.Y. I have been embarrassed for the last 50 or so years and never spoke about it.
Friend, you and he had that in common. Nobody likes the rain & mud. Bet he complained about it too. But, he had a good reason for being in the s**t- so did you. We thought we could find peace- he thought that too.
You have nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed of. You are a very special part of an important moment in human history. We celebrate you and everyone else who had the courage to attend. Without every single one of you Woodstock would never have happened. Thank you ❤
You are one of a kind that still think like a peaceful lovely girl long live those beautiful times I salute you Baby you are from my beautiful generation 60s 70s little 80s
Lovely to see kids at Woodstock parents bringing children how happy n content everyone seemed just to be there .. no phones no police no red tape .. a free time we have undoubtedly lost !
@bizkitgto The future is bleaker now than it has been since WWII or maybe ever. What can we do to save the planet and ourselves from the Republican`s fascist party? My son is a , millennial and my grandson is generation Z and I feel their pain and am pissed with them for damn good reasons!
I'm 69. The 60s were a turbulent decade to grow up; We lost our innocence before we grew up. The music was great though. I loved folk and folk-rock., and rock. Woodstock was amazing. A music festival like that could never, but it did happen on Yasgur's farm in Bedford, NY. in 1969. I love this song.
I’m 19 im happy to be apart of my generation even though my generation definitely has our flaws, but I would do anything to have been at Woodstock. These are almost all of the bands that I’ve loved all of my life, thanks to my parents, and I cannot imagine what it must’ve been like to see them all live all at once
Look people , look how awesome life was before now . You might find some people and friends like this at slab city today . RIP David we are gonna miss ya
So thankful that people took the time and effort to photograph all of this - no camera phones and no go-pros but great documentation of what went into this piece of history!
An absolutely amazing but amazing time in my life and apparently in the lives of thousands of other folks as well!!!! Never ever to be forgotten Woodstock!!!!!! God bless and peace to all.
You were born. Reborn when you discovered this ! ... August 15, 2024 ... 55th anniversary ( August 15, 1969 ); and, fortunately, it still feels like yesterday. 👍☮️✌️
I was a wee lad after this awe inspiring event took place. Things were so different back then. My folks and neighbors didn't have to lock their doors at night and people were so much cooler and more friendly. We held and went to many a good party and clam bake (remember those) when we weren't on dad's speed boat. Once or twice a week we would have family and or friends over for cook outs and parties and everybody had a ball. As kids we played ball, built forts and tree houses, played with train sets that filled a huge board along with race tracks. Music was simply amazing with one awesome hit after another playing on but 3 or 4 available stations. Good times indeed!

I bet you still shine with spirit and beauty. Good for you. I always said I was born 10 years too late (in 63)! What a period it was. Of course it wasn't all love and peace but this event remains so iconic.

I was born in '69 to a mother who had the long braids hanging below her rear, patches on her jeans, raising me on ALL the woodstock music... WHAT CULTURE!!! 👍🏻
And I can remember as a little girl, the Woodstock song blasting through our stereo system, and vibrating our trailer walls! It's no WONDER the music speaks to me😄
Well, besides the fact the artists are PURE GENIUS 🎊
thanks buddy---i popped out in 66, but my parents weren't very 60's at all--mom was a little more, and at least used to drive me to some of my band gigs in the early 80s, but they were generally very 50's and dad wasn't anti-establishment at all, and has never liked much other than bag pipes,so your pretty lucky there. it's rather amazing my bro and me were as anti-establishment as we are.
Funny...I was the same. I was born in '62. My mom was not musical at all and my dad was into the old twangy country music. But I remember in my early teens my brother got me into the Beatles. And from there I got into all the 60's music. And still love it!!! Nothing today can even come close to it. This past May (2022) finally got to make the pilgrimage to Woodstock to see the Who!! Peace and Love to all the hippies still out there!!
They are also pure gold.
No Nukes!
Great days
I never gave up Im still part of the revolution Im 65 years old I was there and I will never give up
Never give up! Never surrender!
No joke...never give in!!!
Right on!

some don't know yet but those 3 days were a unique moment in all of human history. A great moment!
as was I amen brother
I was a lucky man I was at Bethel, NY, Sullivan County, on the Woodstock festival. Best festival ever.
R.I.P. David Crosby, thanks for your music.
for us young teenagers in France , Woodstock was such an inspiration ! It made us part of the worldwide society change.
righteous
I recently visited Paris and I came back marveling at Montmartre and the Mouling Rooge. After that drive to Brussels, Strasbourg, Lucerne and Geneva in Switzerland. And I went back to Paris.
✌️❤
Fight the system with baguette and croissant...
Same in the Netherlands ..What an era! No idea at the time where we would go to.
Well I'm 69 and I don't care what anybody says I still like dressing like that and playing my music loud and I ain't going to change
❤
Seen them twice with Neil still there Great shows Your Missed DC
Tu a bien raison
Serious question, How did so much amazing music come from this era? was it a rebellion to everything due to the vietnam war or just a strange time in history!? Seriously, young people today are amazed by this era .. raw talented musicians and non-computerised music!
I've been asking myself the same question. Back then you had to be really good to sell your albums to the public and get put on the radio. Today's climate is different perhaps? I'm not sure what it is about today that makes the music not as good.
Real Music!!!
Youth from that Era could have only dreamed of the 2010s, our version of the 60s minutes the music. The last decade had everything a 60s revolutionary could want, world's music library at fingertips, legal weed, no vietnam. The music came from the struggles sure, but the pre covid generation would not have been as free as they were without the 60s middle finger to the 50s
It was a time of rapid change and all of the resulting societal upheaval that came with that change.
We still had people alive that were born in a world without electricity, or cars or running water.. much less hot running water. Or mattresses or refrigerators or washing machines or private bedrooms or...
Technology was just beginning it’s rapid progression. As a society we were still innocent. Still just human beings. Skinny healthy ones too!
Uncorrupted.. also uninterrupted by advertising and market/tech driven pop culture. There was one phone at home that the whole family used, which was sufficient given the only people that wanted to talk on the phone were largely just teenage girls.
No internet.. no computers!
Lucky if your house had a color tv!
But tv wasn’t important because we still had nature. Clear clean lakes and rivers with the sweetest water and full of fish, frogs and crawdads, lined with thick lush greenery. Floating docks and rope swings there for all to enjoy. And public pools and skating rinks and sports in the streets!
Traffic was only a thing that happened in big cities.
The population explosion is a big piece of the picture. In 1970 we were 203 million Americans, a huge jump from
181 million in 1960
152 million in 1950,
less than half of today’s population and the rough birthdate of someone who was at Woodstock to see CSNY play.
As a country we were still young and this country was still full of life and astounding natural beauty,
wide open spaces and seemingly infinite opportunity.
God sent some spiritual people with this art called music. I'm from 60s and 70.was an amazing time.
Was a very different world back then................I miss it!
More ''Made in America''
Amen, brother. That's for damned sure. I like their music, but it is too damned bad that these libs didn't understand the importance of that then and now.
The dim time. We're getting old
@@franticfreak3648 Naw! It was Made in Japan!! Junky terrible toys! LOL!
@@henrystowe6217 LOL! Back then lib was In!
We need this spirit again, Music about peace and love. Now we are in a world of hate. I am 70 years old in 2024. If I could I would go back in time to this place. I would also warn them of the hate that is to come.
Rest in Peace David Crosby! Your music brought Joy!
Where’s BING Crosby when you need him!!!???
Thank God I had the incredible luck to live in those times. The world will never be that psychedelic, fun and free again. When I watch clips and hear music from the ''hippy era'' it hurts my heart to think its gone forever.
David Elliott what do you remember of the summer of love?
David Elliott. The world was freer then?! They drafted men to go to war then! Now women and men can choose to fight or not.
Now we have pot more legalized! I heard on the news last nite talk about psychedelic drugs getting legalized soon! I feel now is much more free than then in ways. But not in other ways! Crazy!
Gone forever and getting further away maybe it'll make it in the news when the last 101 year old 60's hippie dies
@@andyrock6481 The last hippy goes extinct and elderly rappers say how special now was when they carried their cell phones everywhere, never spoke to each other except on the internet and all the other great things that are so wonderful now. And the beat goes on...
Your heart and soul are still there, and here, believe in what you felt then, and still feel, peace and love my brother, you are not alone
RIP Crosby.
Gone but never forgotten. This music and Woodstock are timeless.
I am 73, and grew up in the SF area right in the middle of the best of times and the best of music. I am sure every generation says their music is the best, but seriously we did have the best, most heartfelt, creative expression of music. It was an explosion of a new world coming from the ozzie and harriett mentality of our parents and their blind belief the government could be trusted. Many of my younger friends always say I am stuck in the 60's, and they are right. I always tell them NOTHING has come along since then to replace those days. peace, love and fuck the man.
I graduated from high school in 1968 . Starting the hippie era . Wonderful music - like this . Long hair , hippie clothes enc. bell bottoms - loved them . Relaxed , and fun times . Lots of new , special music , and bands! Remember it all well !
I graduated in the Netherlands 1969..being 19 years old . the most fantastic year of my life ..still living for the music of those decades... we know it all isnt it ..I think that one time in eternity!
David Crosby has passed away today 1/19/23. I loved his music. Thanks for your contributions to the music world! They will live on forever. RIP
As my Dad used to say" We lived in the best of times"..I agree with him about 'ours'. It was..'The best of times'...Long live Woodstock..
Except for the profound 'backdrop" of the war in Viet Nam. Tumult creates great art from true artists.
The best music video on TH-cam.
I'm 71 n in Aug 1969 I was in the military if I wasn't I would have been there
Love this song n in Nov 1969 I saw Janis Joplin
In Phil great show lots of memories
"By the time we got to Woodstock, we were half a million strong..."
Neil's "4 dead at Ohio" was history...watched a documentary that interviewed the young girl standing beside the girl lying dead on the road ( famous Time photo) when she went home her dad greeted her at door & said she shlda been shot too for standing against America...what a sickness & it continues today with all the GB America bull sh..
that part gives me chills :) In a GOOD way
Probably an understatement
we still are and much more , peace from amsterdam
Oh that nun flashing the peace sign, love it ❣️❣️❣️
Brilliant version of a Joni Mitchell classic. "We are stardust. We are golden." I hope your trip back to the garden is golden David. Godspeed. Thanks for blessing the soundtrack of my life.
Joni could have made it to Woodstock, but settled for seeing it on the TV a few miles away instead of trying to find a helicopter ride over the crowd. Morale of the story: don't miss your moment, as it may not come again
@@j-5087 She had her first national television program on Monday after Woodstock. It was the Dick Cavett show. They were concerned that she might miss the show if she went to Woodstock so they decided to miss Woodstock thus ensuring her appearance on the Cavett show.
@@roberthamlin6638 she definitely wouldn't have made it out in time for Monday lol
Hair, loved the hippie look , Hair , music , bell bottoms , love , most everyone was friendly and kind to each other ! The music - the best !
When I die, I will ask my lord if I can go to Woodstock right away. That will be my first trip in the after world. I will be driving my 1968 GTO all the way there!
yeah try that but when the time has come to year 2052 u wont get there even with
a laser blasterXD
vtha sangkulh: LOOL
I'll be behind you in my van man. We can share some food, a smile, and some wine and jam out to some fine music.
Right on! I'll be there too! The three most beautiful days of the century took place there. The stars were aligned and it all fell into place. ...got to get ourselves back to the garden.
It will be granted especially to see Jimi Hendrix's performance!
Le plus grand de tous les concerts créé sur terre
RIP David & thanks for the tunes.
Woodstock...never forget..Best of all.. now I'm 70 years...this feeling...it will never comes back..
I was just a kid in high school in western Nebraska when we heard of a huge concert with our favorite bands performing.. We convinced one of our friends to take a group of us in his beat up VW van to Woodstock even though we didn’t have any money or even know for sure where Woodstock was. But we were too young and stupid and just thought we’d figure things out as we hit the road. So we skipped out of school, made up stories of spending weekend with friends for are parents and headed east. We didn’t make it 20 miles when the van broke down and crushed our Woodstock plans. Still love their music.
Bummer on the van..but y'all did it, even if you didn't make it, you did it! That's the spirit of Woodstock, man😎✌
Broken bow
Thier harmony is matchless, & I really like the energy Graham Nash brings to what they do
Playing this song in 2011 as a young man pumped for the decade ahead, man what a ride. RIP Crosby
I was 19 in summer of 69, what a year that was, the music of those times will be timeless, so glad I was still a teenager then.
A simply better time. Breaks my heart. Truly.
You know The Doors were suppose to attend Woodstock. They were revoked when Morrison had the Miami incident.
Yeah I read about that. But I heard they just didnt realize it was going to be such a big event! I remember robby krieger talking about how he regretted missing it. Cant remember exactly though...
Amen to that!
yes
totally! i miss it too.
I lived through this era… LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT… STILL TODAY THE BEST OF MUSIC EVER… CSN&Y the best.. Sion & Garfunkel… Sly & The Family Stone… Eagles, Peter Cetera, Chicago!!! On and on…❤
I was 13 when the movie came out. I couldn't see it because I was too young. I was SO jealous of my older sisters.
They said people were dancing in the aisles at the movie theater. I remember when the CSN&Y version of Woodstock was playing on the radio. I would be walking down the street with a little AM radio playing it and I thought the youth/hippy culture was so cool and ascendant and going places. You would look at somebody with long hair like you and just know you had something in common. When I finally saw the movie in 1976 at a rerun theater kind of place, I was just mesmerized, especially by Sly, Ten Years After, Santana, The Who and Hendrix. You could have knocked me over with a feather.
13 as well..
Not a care in the world . Everyone came together for a almost a week of Music and fun . No violence or shootings or cellphones . Only a few port a potties for all those people but oh well that looked like a very awesome place and time .
I was born in the wrong era, i have the heart and soul of a true hippie... It truly breaks my heart that I missed one of the greatest moments in history! Woodstock was a one time only thing. It will never and CAN NEVER be recreated!
I so feel your pain. I too was born too late. But I am a true Hippie and have been all my life. The 60s and 70s should go down as the generation that started moving this Country forward thinking. I missed Woodstock too. You are so right that it can NEVER be recreated. We have lost too many artists. 🥲
it seems that many time travelers were (and will be) present at this festival
Same I've always said and truly felt that I was born in a wrong Era I was born 1977 my mom was too young to go to Woodstock but her sister was 18 and she went she said it was a true life experience and she was grateful to experience it she said it was a once in a life time deal that the vibe the love it was everywhere so majestic! I can't even imagine but to see videos of Woodstock it always perceive such peace and joy I can feel it sò deeply!!
@@christophealbertchannel Music I think is the closest thing we have to time travel, so I guess we are all at woodstock today
WOW I was only just born in 1970 but I really appreciate my parents exposure to this entire era of music. This generation is almost gone but never forgotten. Thank you David Crosby.
Thank you Mitchell and Stills!!
I saw this movie the day it came out..in Austin. On Congress BLVD. have watched it many times since. A brilliant movie. And a time that changed our world.
My high school years were '67-'71...the BEST 4 years in Rock History.
That harmony at the end just gives me goosebumps. Beautiful work guys. Thank you.
My father stormed the beaches of Normandy France. He fought the Nazis in the hedge rows, he killed horses so the French could eat, he survived and created me. He never complained or spoke about his experience on Omaha beach. Me and my friends complained about the rain and mud in Bethel N.Y. I have been embarrassed for the last 50 or so years and never spoke about it.
Friend, you and he had that in common. Nobody likes the rain & mud. Bet he complained about it too. But, he had a good reason for being in the s**t- so did you. We thought we could find peace- he thought that too.
Your father is an American hero❤
Your father was one of the old school ... Mine was as well ... Good stuff
You have nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed of. You are a very special part of an important moment in human history. We celebrate you and everyone else who had the courage to attend. Without every single one of you Woodstock would never have happened. Thank you ❤
I knew a couple of people that went. I never heard them complain at all.
Je bénis toutes les personnes qui étaient à woudstock pour l'éternité
This musical high school that I’m going to next year is putting on a Woodstock filled with 60s music
53 years on, wish I had been alive and present for such an important piece of history!
I'm as old as dirt, and I'm still getting back to the garden.
Happy 50th Woodstock! We are still golden no matter what!
Such a different time everyone smoked weed & so they were all calm & happy! Lets go back!
We can go back just no weed please!!!
Never stopped smokin ' weed and never left! 😎✌❤️🎶
@@petermackie7395I know you prefer harder drugs.
I still get chills when I see this or hear it . Totally awesome.
You are one of a kind that still think like a peaceful lovely girl long live those beautiful times I salute you Baby you are from my beautiful generation 60s 70s little 80s
Lovely to see kids at Woodstock parents bringing children how happy n content everyone seemed just to be there .. no phones no police no red tape .. a free time we have undoubtedly lost !
Hello Carol, How are you doing?
im seventy now and stuck in the sixties but thats all right!
yes me too
Yeah baby!
Back to stardust when this earthly ride is over :-)
@bizkitgto The future is bleaker now than it has been since WWII or maybe ever. What can we do to save the planet and ourselves from the Republican`s fascist party? My son is a , millennial and my grandson is generation Z and I feel their pain and am pissed with them for damn good reasons!
bizkitgto I don’t know man, I don’t know. That’s my generation and 95% of us get it so wrong... in fact this new generation don’t get anything
I'm 69. The 60s were a turbulent decade to grow up; We lost our innocence before we grew up. The music was great though. I loved folk and folk-rock., and rock. Woodstock was amazing. A music festival like that could never, but it did happen on Yasgur's farm in Bedford, NY. in 1969. I love this song.
Absolutely Magnificent Masterpiece from the greatest musical decade of all time, great music & great memories of life
And the same shit still going on.
Mathews Southern Comforts version is by far the best🙏👍👍
I’m 19 im happy to be apart of my generation even though my generation definitely has our flaws, but I would do anything to have been at Woodstock. These are almost all of the bands that I’ve loved all of my life, thanks to my parents, and I cannot imagine what it must’ve been like to see them all live all at once
I grew up in the 1970s but was too young to know how awesome it was
That means you were more of an 1980s kid . PAC MAN Generation 1. @@dogfriendly1623
Look people , look how awesome life was before now . You might find some people and friends like this at slab city today . RIP David we are gonna miss ya
So thankful that people took the time and effort to photograph all of this - no camera phones and no go-pros but great documentation of what went into this piece of history!
The nun giving the peace sign was one of the most memorable events at Woodstock.
Sister Susanne Bunn. God bless her!
An absolutely amazing but amazing time in my life and apparently in the lives of thousands of other folks as well!!!! Never ever to be forgotten Woodstock!!!!!! God bless and peace to all.
The world then stopped and paused for this musical event.
✌️ ❤️ 💟 ☮️
Crosby Stills and Nash. The songbirds of Woodstock. Carry on my beloveds.
This makes me feel nostalgic and I wasn't even born
You were born. Reborn when you discovered this ! ... August 15, 2024 ... 55th anniversary ( August 15, 1969 ); and, fortunately, it still feels like yesterday. 👍☮️✌️
Sol beleza juventude esperança, todas nos abandonaram. Essa canção nos leva de volta ao sonho da perfeição. RIP DAVID
The first wave of awakened humans 🙏🙏🙏 Rest in Peace Brother David
Awake & still here. We aren’t finished.
UK group Mathews Southern Comforts version is by far the best 🎶🎶🎵🎵🙏🙏👍👍👍👍...NO.1..
Very beautiful song and clip. Beautiful as Woodstock is
I wasn’t born yet when Woodstock took place but the concert looks like a good time ..
Thankyou David for your heartouching 🎶 music .. free now 🙌 to fly 🌊
Woodstock,was the greatest thing that ever happened.It was Love,Drugs,Freedom and Utopia.
I remember those days.❤️❤️❤️❤️.
History HAS TO hand it to this one.....the best song from the whole thing.....
Please make this happen again somehow. My life will not have been in vain.
🙏🙏
It can NOT happen again. A time machine is our best bet.
It will...in some form in the next 40 years
Avrei voluto vivere quei tempi..quell'energia, quelle speranze, quelle good vibrations..
I was a wee lad after this awe inspiring event took place. Things were so different back then. My folks and neighbors didn't have to lock their doors at night and people were so much cooler and more friendly. We held and went to many a good party and clam bake (remember those) when we weren't on dad's speed boat. Once or twice a week we would have family and or friends over for cook outs and parties and everybody had a ball. As kids we played ball, built forts and tree houses, played with train sets that filled a huge board along with race tracks. Music was simply amazing with one awesome hit after another playing on but 3 or 4 available stations. Good times indeed!
The harmony has been silenced but not forgotten
RIP David Crosby you rocked the world and we loved it 😀
MAGNÍFICO TEMA DE CROSBY, STILLS NASH, EN WOODSTOCK 1969, EL MEJOR PERIODO DE LA HISTORIA DE LA MÚSICA, Y DE LA CULTURA HIPPIE, GRACIAS A vtha sangkulh, POR COMPARTIRLA, DESDE ESPAÑA, MI MÁS PROFUNDA ADMIRACIÓN, A UN MOVIMIENTO QUE CAMBIÓ A TODA EUROPA, Y QUE ES UN ICONO DE LIBERTAD, Y AGRADEZCO A EEUU, POR PERMITIR, QUE UN MOVIMIENTO TAN INNOVADOR Y ÚNICO, PARA MUCHOS EUROPEOS, DE LA GENERACIÓN DE LOS 60,, Y A LOS QUE HAN NACIDO DESPUÉS, SEA LA CUNA DE LA MÚSICA, IRREPETIBLE , E INOLVIDABLE UN ABRAZO DESDE ESPAÑA
I especially liked the Catholic Nuns and the one giving the peace sign. Woodstock was a huge deal. It was a very huge deal.
Love that too
My favorite moment in the video.
For the people in Texas, Got to get Our Selves to help them out, Donate to a proper help organization. After all, it may help you some day. Peace out.
I would do the nun with the glasses. She is so very hott that I don't know what to do with myself. Just saying. I wonder when I see this video, what became of these individuals.
Nice nuns.
I am so proud of the Woodstock generation. I m 70 and still have my peace symbol and my War is not healthy poster. Rock On!
