My husband and I were married in 1969 in June then in August a whole group of us went to Woodstock ….it poured rain and the food was questionable but for 3 days it was music heaven….thank you for allowing me to relive one of the most wonderful times of my life…you guys ROCK! ❤❤❤
What was it actually like to be there? Where did people stay? Tell us about it.
In 1969 I was 15 years old and lived in North Carolina. My cousin who was 18 at the time and I hitched hiked to Woodstock. We got a ride in Virginia with two couples who was headed there anyway So we road with them the whole way there. I grew up a lot on that trip, done a lot of things I never had even dreamed of, but to this day it's one of the best memories I have. Thank you for taking me back!
So cool. What an experience.
Nice story fella. Best wishes from NE Scotland. :o)
That's the Overlook Mountain House that you toured the remains of. Also Natalie you rocked those Lennon glasses! ❤
I was at Woodstock in a sense. My Mom and Dad were there while my Mom was pregnant with me. So Technically I was there but wasn't born until November that year. lol
Thank God you guys are getting hipper,lol
California and Woodstock,
Now your living 😊😊😊😊 😊😊
I had a friend that hitchhiked from salt lake city utah out there for woodstock and then hitchhike all the way back by himself. He was seventeen years old, And his parents didn't know about it Until he got back.
Thanks you guys!! Excellent informative video,( love the new yellow glasses) I would have been there at Woodstock...but i was busy repairing Swiftboats in Vietnam at the time...
But im from the sfo bay area ( marin) Janis Joplin lived in our little town ...met her a few times ....as well as others ...
Jimmy Hendrix , by the way was in the Army prior to being a great musician 🎶🎶
Little trivia for you ...
Love you guys 🙏
Natalie can definitely pull off the glasses. Good for you.
Admitting a lot of my age here...yep I was there, and to be honest my memory is pretty hazy as I was a 20 year old sailor at the time and I was pretty (ok VERY) drunk for most of the festival. There were a lot of great performers there. and one became a personal friend over the years Richie Havens look him up I have a photo of him holding my 3 year old daughter. I've never been back. Oddly enough I did no drugs while I was there (or even since then) but a bottle of 101 proof wild turkey kept me rocking for most of the festival. Joan Baez, Country Joe and the Fish, Santana, Canned Heat, John Sebastian,. Jefferson airplane, Sly and the Family Stone Crosby Stills Nash and Young were there, and Arlo Guthrie among others. Thanks you two for giving me a flashback to a LOOONG time ago!
note that in 1969 the legal drinking age in New York was 18
such an awesome talent lineup, won't happen again, highest paid act was the Who wtf!
I love listening to CCR !!! Their music is as old as I am !!!
I really love this week’s episode !!!
OMG! I was driving through town and I thought I saw Jimmy, but told myself I was being silly. It was you guys! I am glad you enjoyed Woodstock. It has changed a lot over the years, but its still pretty cool. &Don't feel bad, that hike is killer! You can look up original pics of the Overlook Mountain House, its kinda stunning. It burned down in the 1800 (if I remember correct) I've lived in the area my whole life, I wasn't alive for the first Woodstock, but I lived less than two miles from the second one in 1994. I was 17, and that was one of the craziest weekend of my life! Very cool to see you guys enjoying NY.
Welcome to my World! My music! Good video! Good research.
I was there, I was 18 yrs old and in the army. Went in a class A uniform and came home in shorts and a T
talent lineup at the festival was insane, you could never really get that many artists today in one place,
Maybe the Woodstock spirit can come back in some form, someday.
My first concert , no food or water, no bathrooms. Got lost from my friends I went with. Lots of mud and music but glad I went it was historical. Now I brag I was there. Peace and love to everyone.✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Great video! You guys are awesome!! My husband was one of those hippies, lol, and attended Woodstock all three days. It was so muddy that his shoes got sucked into the mud and he went home batefoot. He drove from NC to NY in a 1960 VW bug, and what he remembers of it - he had a blast!! ☮️ Thanks for all the hard work and effort you put into your channel. Much appreciated and enjoyed! 😊
My wife and I started watching your videos 2 months ago and finally caught up today!
I was originally searching for Lectric reviews (we bought 4 bikes for us and the in-laws) and your Grand Canyon video popped up. When Jimmy said “we’re gonna head back home and put the bikes in the garage” then proceeded to put them in the back of a green bus…I HAD to know what the heck was going on!
Now my wife is wanting to build out a skoolie because of you two! We had no idea there was such a thing but loved watching and learning from you both and so much enjoy seeing you on this journey. If you’re ever coming through Birmingham, Alabama again please stop and let’s grab a meal!
Oh that’s awesome to hear!! We’re so happy you found our channel - that’s such a funny story! 😄💚 The bus thing does seem quite random when looking up eBike reviews 😂 lol
Thank you so much for watching and your nice comment! It means a lot to us!
I graduated from high school in 1969. I fell in love with the music from woodstock, CCR is one of my favorites. I was a pretty conservative kid, but I did identify with the hippy (anti-war) movement of the day. I wish I had went to Woodstock, it was a cultural milestone. I had many classmates who ended up in the military and in Viet Nam, several died. It was a sad situation.
We LOVED New York when we visited last year. Already excited to be back!
Great Video, Jimmy and Natalie! This is Ernest and Ruth Perez from San Antonio, Texas.
We received our “Jimmy and Natalie” sticker you mailed out in Rochester, NY.
We have been to the state of NY ourselves and love the country and historic value. We had a planned trip to NY when COVID hit and it got canceled.
Thank you so much and we are looking forward to your travels.
Hey guys before you leave New York go see Letchworth State Park known as the Grand Canyon of the east.
We’ve heard so much about Letchworth! We’ve already left NY, but we definitely want to see it next time we’re there! 😊
I was there.....I'm 74 years old now.
I remember Woodstock though I was only 12 at the time.
Max Yasgur was the owner of the farm. He also made a speech at the start.
Great video guys.
In 69 I was 21 years old and was driving a 59 VW Bus. Now I’m 75 and still driving a 71 Bus. Didn’t make it to Woodstock but always wished I had!
I was being inducted into the army a month prior to Woodstock. I do remember a small advertisement for the concert stapled to a telephone pole near my home and wishing I could go. Several years after arriving home though, I did get to meet John Lennon in Philidelphia in 1975. Got his autograph and was honored to be a target of his wittiness. Better than Woodstock and a bit less muddy. You looked great in the JL sunglasses, Natalie!
This was such a cool video!! A lot of info on Woodstock!!! That abandoned hotel looks so awesome and that view looked amazing!!! It looks like it was worth the steep climb!!
Looking back now, the hike was totally worth it, but we were reeeeally struggling in the moment 😂😂 Woodstock was such a cool experience, we had a lot of fun making this video! Thanks so much Cory!! 💚
@@JimmyandNatalie That's the story of every good hike: lots of work at the time, but memorable afterward! Thanks for sharing your visit!
Jimi Hendrix did not want any band to play after him, and it was in his contract that he was the grand finale. Problem was there was a lot of rain delays, so by the time he played on Monday, most people were gone by then. Definitely a groovy time was had by all.✌️☮️
Thank you guys I lived there once upon a time thanks for taking me up Overlook Mountain I tried to start on the trail once and I had to turn around and go back down so I never saw the hotel though I lived there for years. Next time go to a moon party in magic meadow.
Ok I have to say the YELLOW sunglasses are really cool.
I just finished binge watching your whole series over the past 2 weeks, you guys did an awesome job on both vehicles, keep up the good work
Interesting. I loved Jimmys shirt, very handsome looking! The glasses Natallie were really neat! I loved the Lennon look! The blanket was beautiful! I think it will compliment any area you put it.
This was great .... my Uncle and aunt was there. They said it was so AWESOME. WISH I WAS THERE.
Judging by the dirt floor that "basement" could have been a root cellar where food for the guests were stored. IF there was a fireplace somewhere they could have cooked the food and sent it up a "food elevator" of sorts to the dining room.
You brought back a historic event from my teens. I followed the news reports an my Dad’s reactions to those long haired hippies. Fun video thanks.
I was there over 1989 years and there was nothing in Bethel but the original general store in Bethel. The still sold woodstock related stuff but no music festival center or realy any just a grass place with a sign park. We also when to woodstock the town Being more season we we say a musical at the theater in town we say Hair it was the 20 anniversary or the musical and concert. Love watching your adventures, this time reminding me of one of mine when I was in my 20s before my wife I had kids. Thanks
I was conceived at Woodstock!😊
Oh, I liked the purple glasses!! The blanket is great...good purchase.
Great video. The glasses are definitely giving off Lennon vibes! Thanks Jimmy and Natalie!
Love your new shades Natalie,and blanket. The abandoned hotel was very interesting. Looks like you 2 had a wonderful time. Have a good week.
Super cool to see you guys do this, especially since you are so far after that generation.
Love this week's travels! You make it come alive. Natalie you rock those glasses! With your straight blond locks and those glasses you could have stepped from 1969!
You need a day where you throw the budget out the window every now and then. As for vegan food, well I like all food so I’ll eat whatever is available. Looks like a fun day in town
Thank you for the information. I’ve heard so much divided by nothing so much details that you guys did. I appreciate you guys. Stay blessed stay healthy and keep the epic videos coming. I love them by later later.
Groovy Man!! All I am going to say is yeah, I got wet and cold. I would love to go back before I die....
I was 2, my mom thought it would be a great idea to take me with her to Woodstock. Wish I could remember it.
I was 15 at the time but wanted to go so bad. My sister’s roommate went. My brother was so mad at his boss because he wouldn’t let him off work. Our friend said everyone just left their cars in the road and walked in. The music was of my time and I still love it. Janis Joplin was my all time favorite.
Was a senior in high school went up with some friends look up Wavy Gravy saying good morning
Best memory was Jimi Hendricks doing the national anthem ✌️
Living up in the Catskills, you made the town more appealing than it is ...
Great video!!! Thanks got taking us with you.
Found your videos about a month ago, while searching for some Woodstock videos. Since then I have watched your build and travel videos. You guys are the best! I was at the original Woodstock and would love to share some pictures with you, if that is possible. I was 19 and drove to Woodstock in my 67 VW Karmann Ghia with my wife and two friends.
AWESOME shades!! So happy you guys are feeling better after the bike fall...it hurt me to see you fall Jimmy....glad youre doing better bro....great video guys
I would imagine that all the Hotel floors were wood...and the Hotel suffered a fire...Great Video! ❤
Hey you peace lovin guys need some bell bottoms, fringe vest and tee shirts pluse the head bands. 😂❤❤
Love the glasses❤❤
I was 8 when Woodstock happened. I remember it was on the news. My grandfather kept saying "look at all those hippies". I lived about 2 hours from there when I was younger. That area of New York is beautiful. Great video. Thanks for bringing back memories.
My ex brother in law went with some friends. They had no idea what they were getting into, just heard about a concert happening there. I loved watching the movie about it.
Oh yeah, love the glasses and I dig the shirt … Totally groovy!
Interesting history lesson on "Woodstock" . Just think if social media , messaging . and email were available , wonder how many would have showed up .
Natalie always looks like a model .
Gotta love Jimmy's quick witted humor . @12:53 "Good luck Nat . . .that was more of good-bye in case something happened" LOL
You are really rockin the yellow glasses!
I wanted to go to Woodstock but I was 13 or so. Enjoyed the vlog. Very interesting . So green. Thanks for the vlog.
My ex husband watched the Woodstock movie many, many times. He would have loved being there. I would have hated it. BUT my favorite quote from that movie is “There’s always a little bit of heaven in a disaster area.”
Finally you guys spent some money, LOL! You need to splurge now and then! I was 4 in 1969, but my mother's brother died that weekend. he was only 40 and a highly decorated Marine from the Korean war.
Love your honest and variety of videos. (Love the sun glasses too). Also - so happy I got my sticker today!!! 😊
Apparently the owner of the farm at the time was the cousin of Sorrell Booke who played "Boss Hogg" on TV's The Dukes of Hazzard.
In High school my best friend and I rode her uncle's horses from a nearby Farm to the location of the original event.
Child of the 60's here! ☮ I was only 10, so my parents wouldn't let me go - Lol. That said, I grew up with all the great music you listened to this week.
Hey, I can see my sticker on the box. NICE!
Cool glasses Natalie 😎
great job, guys
I was at the 1998 show at the original site. Definitely one of the best times of my life❣️
Sweet, cool ☮vibes and wishing time travel was a thing so I could go back to 1969 to experience the whole Woodstock peace festival. "What we have in mind is breakfast in bed for 400,000" -Wavy Gravy 😎☮✌🏼
Natalie you look great in those glasses.
Hey Jimmy & Natalie just wanted to say i got my sticker in the mail yesterday Thank you keep up the awesome videos ❤
CCR , great band .. it was fun
Groovy video! The hotel tour…😂 Great description! Jimmy needed a pair of Lennon glasses too.
Jimmy tried some of the sunglasses on, and he pulled them off pretty well! 😂😎 Thanks for watching Samy! So glad you enjoyed the “tour”! 💚
New subscriber . I've always wanted to travel the country like this. It's super cool seeing your history of your adventures
That was so much fun! I went to the Simon and Garfunkel concert in New York City in 1981 and they think they were 500,000 people. It was definitely an appreciation for a lot of people in a small area. Wonderful experience, but overwhelming also. Thanks for sharing your journey, that was fun!
Great video as always. And your backdrop tunes were amazing. Keep up the good work. From west coast Canada. Can't wait till you get up this way. See ya
Don't forget Jefferson Airplane. August 15, 1969 was my 23rd birthday 😊
I went to a modern day Woodstock! EDC Las Vegas 💙
Thanks for your interesting dialogue! I went online to find more information on the hotel.
The lemon Lennon glasses really do work for you. Looks good!
Groovy man, you cats took a cool trip. 😂
New sunglasses match your hair, but much better than the purple.
Enjoyed to video. I was eleven years old in 1969, and it was the same year my youngest sister was born. None of us went, but we heard about it.
Very cool! 💚 We really didn’t know much about it before this, but we’re so glad we got to experience it a bit! 😄
0h you two would have been GREAT hippies!
Woodstock would have been so fun..even though I had family members fighting for their lives in another country Vietnam
Fab video.
The glasses look good. They go with your hair.
I worked with a guy in South America who went to the 1969 festival. I think he was wearing Jimmy's shirt at work 😂
Great video! I didn't go to Woodstock, but I had a close friend who did. And it changed him in many ways. For one, he turned into a pothead at least for a short time. I was a rising college senior at a southern university that summer. I wasn't a big fan of "psychedelic" music at the time, but Woodstock really changed that.
Woodstock wow 👌
Kids. I started hitchhiking there from the Midwest but didn’t make it.
Fish Cheer. 😁
Fish cheer back at you! Long live Country Joe!!!
I did not attend Woodstock but I have a friend that did go. She is in a photo that was published in the Woodstock edition of Life magazine.
Love the hippie chick glasses! Tomorrow I will rattle off other groups at that concert, like Jefferson Airplane, Joe Cocker, Country Joe McDonald, Canned Heat, CSNY and more....stay tuned. Oh wait, you ever hear of Wavy Gravy, he and his followers were there.
YAY!!!
💚💚
I didn't go to Woodstock myself, but a few years later in my life I met and became close friends with another young woman a few years older than me who had gone to Woodstock when she was 17 years old. She had been living in New Jersey at the time, in foster care, and hitch-hiked to the concert. While at Woodstock, she hung around the back stage area and meet a lot of the artists that performed there, also meet a lot of folks in "wanna be" bands that were hanging out in the back stage area hoping for a chance to perform. Among the artists she met were a couple of members of what would later become The Allmans Brothers Band and given she was semi-homeless at the time, they invited her to come back to Georgia with them after the concert was over. She accepted and ended up living in the same house as Duane and Greg Allman, as well as other members of the band. She was living with them while they were recording their first album. Unfortunately, she also started using heroin while she lived there, a problem that affected various members of the band off and on for many years, as it also affected my friend off and on for many years. During the years we were friends, she was clean (not using), but as time drew our lives apart from each other, I heard she had begun using again. I don' know what ever happened with her, we lost contact decades ago, as happens in life. But I have to say, she had some great stories to tell...
So cool great glasses.
1969 I was 23, in the Air Force in Florida a bunch of us were going to Woodstock--a few people did go, had a ball--my wife and I were hours away from leaving when she became violently ill--we didn't know at the time she was pregnant with our daughter--so we were close but no cigar!
What an awesome trip! Thanks for such a great tour! I was still a kid (and I know y’all weren’t even thought of yet), but I really enjoyed the tour and music! I love the blanket and glasses you bought. you deserved to treat yourselves! That meal at the lunch place looked delicious, too. much love from SC, Jane ❤️🙏🏻
Jimmy you should have got Natalie a headband of roses or flowers
