Working to pay for college at Michigan State. Did see Eric Clapton and Cream along with the MC 5 at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit that summer though.

I was 16 and I was there with 3 of my best friends and we had a great time. The music was awesome and the mud was plentiful.

Those three were killed in a traffic accident 2 years later. The only reason I wasn't in that car was because it was Christmas Eve and I was at Mass.

Lived and worked in Manhattan at that time. There were signs everywhere about Woodstock. It was two weeks before my wedding. I had a part share in a house on Fire Island that weekend with friends, so we went there. It was an exciting summer.

Ft Riley, Kansas. I missed the whole thing until some of the other Lieutenants brought recordings to a party one night. Great music!

Not realizing how big this would be, my girlfriend and I went up there 2 weeks before to find a motel to stay at. Luckily, we didn't find one. I would have died trying to live in those conditions no matter how great the music was. Still don't regret it.

Second year of college in Pennsylvania, had too many other things going on, but several friends went or attempted to get to Woodstock. Just watched the news in amazement of the size.

Woodstock wasn't very publicized in the Chicago area. Maybe more of an East Coast word of mouth event. When I saw it in a downtown theater when the movie was first released I realized the opportunity I missed.

It was the summer after I graduated high school. I went with two friends in a VW bus. What great music and quite an experience.

I was in Lackland AFB, San Antonio Texas for basic training. Oh, it was so much fun.
