I was there and have the framed tickets to prove it. Also I think the Villages paper is doing an article on it in the future.

Thumbs up

The last I heard, 8,000,000 people have claimed to be at Woodstock. A 40 year reunion would be interesting. Let's do it.

In TV I bet that might pick up some national coverage.

Sounds groovy.

We might have to head down I-75.

Uh, speaking of coverage, you will be keeping your clothes on. Right?

"Woodstock" wasn't in Woodstock, NY (it was supposed to be, thus the name), but in Bethel, NY. The closest I got to it was being stuck in the traffic coming home from the Jersey shore. Time marches on. Here's what's happened to the muddy field.

I'd be there for sure. A few months ago there was a day long concert at the Polo fields where there were impersonators of famous performers. It was well attended. It ended with a great Beatles tribute band. I joked to my wife that we were at a "Woodstock for seniors". Funny, the air didn't smell like it did in the 60's.

How about a warm up?

Best Santana live performance of Soul Sacrifice ever. Next would be his live performance in 1968 at The Fillmore.

How about the guy with the perfect fro? How many of those will we see?

I also saw Santana at the Filmore East, and Buddy Miles, Elton John and a few others I can't quite remember.
I'm in for a reunion, might have some lovebeads somewhere, but I'll not be wearin' hot pants
