I was/am a hippie. You have no idea how much fun it was back then. You could go to a concert for $5, and no cops looked in your purse for anything. As soon as the lights went out the lighters came out! Oh to be free again in America.
I love being a child of the 90s and being raised in an area where hip hop is more popular but damn would i have loved to experience being a teen in the 70s
In '67 I was on my bike on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood. I had a hippie try to get me on one of those yellow buses from the 50s. He was going to take me and others to the desert to escape society. I was only 9 years old. He was recruiting youth for the new generation. He said your parents meant well but cannot help you. I listened to him preach for about 30 minutes on a Sunday Morning. I did not get on his bus. I went home on my Schwinn 3 speed racer and said nothing about it.
@MindMyLost You were lucky to be smart enough not to get on the bus. Who knows who of the others who did are alive or not. Good post and I am glad you are alive to tell the story. Regards.
I think its cool that he is bragging about his granddaughter. Its wierd that you would call him wierd when your the one who commented about it. shut up and enjoy the music. nobody cares what you think. wer'e just here for the music.
Right on brother. Im 46, born in years of war, protest and peace. I still remember many that came home from the Nam. My uncles, brothers and sisters. We are the last of that era to remember. Children of the love years.
I never saw a fight at Woodstock. Everyone was helping each other out & sharing what little they had. We walked to the local farms & asked to use their hoses to cool off , drink & clean up. They GAVE us sandwhiches, water, tea & ice - we haven't had ice for days. I will never forget their kindness & generousity.
I want to extend my apologies as a member of this bunch of freedom loving, live and let live folks in that we couldn't keep the vibe alive. Its pitiful where we took this world
@tmcmahen Amen to that Brother, It's now the age of Aquarius 2012 is the new awakening. As Martin Luther King said in his speech of 1968 ~ I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know t that we will get to the promised land! ~ We may not see our children inherit the love and peace experienced in those few Golden years when the 60's slipped into the 70's but hopefully our Grandchildren will pick up where we left off.
I don't know why people make fun of hippies, especially today. People today don't want war, people today are environmentally conscience, and people today care about human rights, equality, animals, etc.
Most Liberals are like this, yet even amongst Liberals who agree on everything I said will still put them down.
The hippies were right, and I do think of myself as a young hippie, because I've got very radical views on the world, and all I want is world peace.
Hippiechild, keep in mind that time had a lot of unrest, racism and war. They didn't luck into the peace and music, they MADE it happen! Love is a powerful magic force, but someone has to strike the match and start it burning.
@sgtpeppersplanet Written by Joni Mitchell, cranky vocal arrangements typical of her style. Sensational song but I prefare the Mathews Southern Comfort.version.
there is feeling that this era, the music and the people (hippies) had that just embodies the feelings of Unity and Brother and Sister hood...I look around and just don't see it....except in a few pockets here and there, and even that is tainted with materialism and greed all around it trying to pull those human beings out of the "garden"...
Music back then was a true expression of their creativity and love of it, its all about money and commercialism now, that killed the real spirit of music.
You know, I was a teenager from the mid 60's to the mid 70's. Loved the music and the times. Peace and Love! Would never want to trade it!! NOW, I have this first grader granddaughter who is beautiful, brilliant in school (A++) and will wear no clothes without a Peace sign or Peace flower on it...Something about those times has trickled down...to her and her generation. Have you noticed?
@skipmooncat This had to have been pre Sept in 1969. No one around that town wanted much of us after Woodstock..leastways not the 'establishment' types..Peace Tony
@skipmooncat Not to be the Buzzkill Dude or anything, but most kids wear peace signs as more of a fashion statement than a political one. However, with luck, when they get a bit older they'll understand the significance of the symbol, and appreciate it even more.
@skipmooncat My grandaughter loves all the peace signs etc too!!! I love it!!!....there was a little onsie when she was a baby that had a big peace sign on it and underneath it said Back by popular demand :)
@skipmooncat But me and your granddaughter (i think i am older / 79'er) will never feel what you felt 69. And i hope everyone who wears peace signs remember what this sign means. I am from germany and still today most of us know what it means. not all, but most..
Every generation has its issues. But there is no doubt in my mind that comparing the music of the 60s and 70s (and I was there) to music today is like comparing perfume to used toilet water. I'm not locked in the past - I look all the time for good new music. There is some, but the pickings are extremely slim.
@Rottyman63 no such thing as free Love, The 60s were a time when Sexist Pigs thought they had the right to any Woman they saw. Thankfully the Pigs are safely back in their Pens in 2010. At the epicenter of all the problems today are the liberal 1960s where everyone felt they had to the right to do anything. Thoughtfully the people who lived this lifestyle are now trying to enslave the current generation from their postions in state and federal government as well as the Corporate world.
Lets not forget the race riots,Black segregation and last but not least the Vietnam war where all Hippies were shitting themselves they might end up(quite rightly)A Useless war where a lot of good young men died whilst the hippies worked to undermine them at home,so they wouldnt have to go themselves. as you can see I have little time for the so called Peace and Love generation who were only interested in saving their own skins really and went on to enslave this Generation once they took charge!
I repeat it's sacrilege I know but Joni didn't actually make it to Woodstock!!! and a lot of people didn't, I am 58, I was there in spirit, still am, Joni was too, and wrote the song, the theme song, fantastic song of the hippie ideal, but her butt was not actually on Yasgur's farm, only her soul!
Oh baby - you are too young to understand - this was an era of HISTORY!!!! LOVED THAT PIG FARM - i AM 58 & am still rockin! Yes I was a hippie & proud of it! Also - we din't want war - It was about uniting the people to express love & peace & the music brought it all together! PEACE Brother!
@pattyjols Yeah, I am a year younger and still feeling the vibe of that time. It was a magical time, we were filled with so many hopes and thought we would be able to make such changes. Sorry for young kids today, they are being put under so much pressure, when they should be out there having the time of their lives.
My friends and I are certainly still spreading the peace, love and unity message!
Oh baby - you are too young to understand - this was an era of HISTORY!!!! LOVED THAT PIG FARM - i AM 58 & am still rockin! Yes I was a hippie & proud of it! Peace!
Joni wrote the song! and she wasn't there, and I think wrote it the day after, CSN and Y were there, they made the song rock, hey I was there at that time, what was it a Heroic effort at something that was impossible to accomplish in this world, and some died trying.... but unforgettable....
@Williamharold1000 - William, sorry baby - Joni WAS there - yes she wrote it but she sucked at singing it (NOT at Woodstock: That was CSN&Y) Joni sang a folk-ballad - day 2 or 3
what happened to all these peace lovin hippies? They turned into greedy yuppies in the 1980s. These people are mostly the people in positions of power now. Blame these self indulgant fuckers for the problems of today, and in any event it was mostly middle class whites living this lifestyle in the 1960s, everyone else looked on and went to work...don't believe all the bullshit about free love and dancing around trees. Hippies were the sons and daughters of the middle class with money to burn.
As one o fthe middle class hippies in the UK I have to agree with you 100%
Most working class people in the UK could not afford to tune in turn on and drop out. What a lot of shit! As for free love - yes if you were a bloke - if you were a woman there was a lot of pressure to conform
I had to hit one guy at a party who was suggesting to my current GF she should go upstairs with hm. I wonder how his broken nose looks like after all these years.
@lndac02 Why are you so angry? Did you just listen to that amazing song?? I am one of those hippies from the 60, still living the dream, loving my fellow man and trying to do the best I can. Greedy yuppies did not come out of the hippy movement, get your facts straight! Peace man!
@greatruaha Yuppies most certainly did sir! By the end of the Vietnam war early-mid 70s the peace and generation went back to doing what was best for them.The chances of being shot by Viet cong had disappeared so everyone could drop the love and peace pretence and get back to making real money.in the 1980s these people were doing anything required to make to the top whilst lining their pockets.In 2010 we have grey old 50/60 ex-peace and love hippies running the corporate world.You & I know it!
@Rottyman63 Not a rant,Just someone from the 60s generation tired of all the balony thats been peddled for the last 40 years about a movement that was fairly exclusive to the white middle classes,You needed a rich Mommy & Daddy to "drop out".its fairly irritating to see kids today filled with bullshit about a era they only know from youtube clips.The 60s were a time when women were forced to conform,they now had the pill and no excuse not to offer sexual services 4 free. Freedom? I think not!
If you people of today think you are in the wrong era..think again..it is up to you to straighten out what you believe is wrong..they call you they techage children..do not let anyone label you what they think you should be it is up to you to change what you don't agree with..educate yourselfs as the school system did not..they misled you and made you a era of consumers and workers..you are thinkers ..use your brains
That's right, we are stardust, we are golden, we are a billion year old carbon ... we've got to get ourself back ... back to the wherever we think is worth while ... but to set our soul free.
a little blessing from the Lord GOD Almighty, not lucky
it was the lord god almighty showing us just a little light find the cost of freedom buried in the ground if you cant die for it then why do you believe it?
Piecemusic. Mir gefällt die Band und der Musiktitel, das Video ist auch nicht scheiße, nur einige Sequenzen sind völlig übertrieben.
Z.B. Das mit dem springenden Kind in der letzten Szene. Retro-Kitsch hoch zehn. Außerdem wundert mich, dass fast alle jungen Männer Ketten-Joint-Raucher sind. Unlogisch!
This movie was sweet! If you want to see the whole movie for free in great quality Just google yslides and the site should pop up. Yslides is where I watched this movie and didn't have any problems at all. I would just put the website address, but I don't want youtube to mark my account as spam. LOL
The people who got to expierience the 1960's were so lucky. :( I hate being born in the 90's the music sucks and the people are rude and have not time to enjoy life :(
@hippiechild100 hang in there hippie child - I appreciate ur love for a momentous period but remember THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN is at HAND and u can still access the timeless energy from the festival if u hang with the right folks in the right environment. if u see the woodstock film my father is a star in it and talks about me . he says you "gotta feed the kids - if pot makes the kids peaceful maybe we should give all the adults pot" i have a 19 yr old in california' *& a lot more . t
@MANIPADMEOM If thats your father then wow, cause i saw that, i solute you and your message is exactly how im thinking, the power to bring this kind of freedom of expression and love is at the hands of us, the people. we can change it anytime we want.
Couldn't agree more with you. Theres times where I wish I could just gather with thousands of people and smoke pot and listen to music for days without caring about life.
@hippiechild100 Don't envy the children of the 60's. No one talks about all the violence, mistrust of govt., uptight people, angry people, free loaders, etc. (wait... are we talking about the 60's or now?) None the less - the 90's had moments too. Love who you are! Make it a groovy time!
@hippiechild100 Bless you, my young friend. Just remember that it is easy to romanticize another time, forgetting that there were troubles then, just as there are now. The nation was divided over many issues, Vietnam was raging on, civil rights hadn't been established, and there was alot of hatred toward those who were different. None of us were any luckier on account of our birth. You've got to make every era worth living in. Make every decade count. Keep the spirit of peace alive! Peace!
@hippiechild100 you're parents SUCK- why do you take their shit?
the 90's were actually BETTER than the 60s. I graduated in the 90s. the reason why we had good tunes is becaue we actually went out and listened to bands BEFORE they got famous. Your parents ruined you. I'm sorry, your gen sucks because you did nothing about it.
@therealcaptobvious go to a music festival today, or maybe just compare a concert or a music festival in the 90s to a concert in the 60s, people in the 90s would be ignorant fucks, starting fights, pushing people around and not giving shit about anyone but themselvses. Although in the 60s people would be welcoming you, offering you CLEAN drugs, minding their own business and just appreciating the quality of life. Now a days people could give two shits whether your dead, living or dying. WEED.
What the world needs is Peace and Love!! Hippie ideology is the only way that works for the good of all and if you weren't lucky enough to be a part of that generation, join the movement that's all around you cause the hippies had it right and still do ~ Peace to all who enter this wonderful kingdom;-) Love you my hippie Freespirit<3<3<3
@rromyja24 you are right on my Hippie flower child, united we stand divided we fall ! the hippie's had it right and got it right now and it's great to see the movement back.! I Love you forever Moonpie Soulflower ! Peace and Love to all from NC and Colorado
Ok remember they tried another woodstock twice and both were a disaster, it's not about woodstock the festival it's about the ideology that people were forced into. R u for the war or against are you for minority rights or against for big business or against are u greedy or altruistic etc,etc. It's the same divisions that are in a large still going on. So the musicians were not separated from that, they were just able to express that sentiment through music and we dug them for it.
There is also a "forgotten" version of this song by a band called Matthew's Southern Comfort. While Joni's version was a lament,and CSNY's version an all -out rocker,the Mathew's Southern Comfort version was somewhere in between. Kind of has a mellower almost countryish vibe to it. Give it a listen if you haven't already heard it back in the day. It's on Youtube.
I went from a little, long haired dope smoker in late 60's and 70's who loved every type of rock and the laid back lifestyle. 80's and 90's I went "Straight", Cop, DoD Security and Weapons Trainer for 25 years. Owned nice homes, put 2 kids through College, Wore a tie, paid my taxes and never smoked weed since 1982. Now I'm semi-retired and am STILL a freakin' hippie at heart! Never judge a book by its cover...
@fussionfunk actually this is not the version that is on the Deja Vu album.... so this version may actually be from '71 I don't really know I've never heard it before
sigo deseando en mi alma el haber estado en ese memorable festival lo mejor de la generacion de los 60s . de exisitr una maquina del tiempo me iria directo para ver y oir a jimi hendrix,janis joplin sly family stone canned head johny winter a cc revival y a todos los grandes de esa a la que llamo mi generacion.que vuelvan los 60s
....A great time in my life! This film was all shot there at Woodstock. Micheal Lang, t(the promoter) is seen in the earlier shots riding a horse. He got the idea for Woodstock when attending "The Rock Pow-Wow" May of 1968 in Miami Florida.
I was 8 years old and at my grandparents cabin in Bethel just 4 miles from the concert and these pictures bring back great memories seeing the Psychedelics buses, and all the people was a sight i will never forget, it influenced my life big time
I was/am a hippie. You have no idea how much fun it was back then. You could go to a concert for $5, and no cops looked in your purse for anything. As soon as the lights went out the lighters came out! Oh to be free again in America.

I repeat it's sacrilege I know but Joni didn't actually make it to Woodstock!!! and a lot of people didn't, I am 58, I was there in spirit, still am, Joni was too, and wrote the song, the theme song, fantastic song of the hippie ideal, but her butt was not actually on Yasgur's farm, only her soul!

@pattyjols Yeah, I am a year younger and still feeling the vibe of that time. It was a magical time, we were filled with so many hopes and thought we would be able to make such changes. Sorry for young kids today, they are being put under so much pressure, when they should be out there having the time of their lives.
My friends and I are certainly still spreading the peace, love and unity message!
All the best!

Joni wrote the song! and she wasn't there, and I think wrote it the day after, CSN and Y were there, they made the song rock, hey I was there at that time, what was it a Heroic effort at something that was impossible to accomplish in this world, and some died trying.... but unforgettable....

what happened to all these peace lovin hippies? They turned into greedy yuppies in the 1980s. These people are mostly the people in positions of power now. Blame these self indulgant fuckers for the problems of today, and in any event it was mostly middle class whites living this lifestyle in the 1960s, everyone else looked on and went to work...don't believe all the bullshit about free love and dancing around trees. Hippies were the sons and daughters of the middle class with money to burn.

As one o fthe middle class hippies in the UK I have to agree with you 100%
Most working class people in the UK could not afford to tune in turn on and drop out. What a lot of shit! As for free love - yes if you were a bloke - if you were a woman there was a lot of pressure to conform
I had to hit one guy at a party who was suggesting to my current GF she should go upstairs with hm. I wonder how his broken nose looks like after all these years.

@greatruaha Yuppies most certainly did sir! By the end of the Vietnam war early-mid 70s the peace and generation went back to doing what was best for them.The chances of being shot by Viet cong had disappeared so everyone could drop the love and peace pretence and get back to making real money.in the 1980s these people were doing anything required to make to the top whilst lining their pockets.In 2010 we have grey old 50/60 ex-peace and love hippies running the corporate world.You & I know it!

The nation was divided over many issues, Vietnam was raging on, civil rights hadn't been established, and there was alot of hatred toward those who were different. None of us were any luckier on account of our birth. You've got to make every era worth living in. Make every decade count. Keep the spirit of peace alive! Peace!

@therealcaptobvious go to a music festival today, or maybe just compare a concert or a music festival in the 90s to a concert in the 60s, people in the 90s would be ignorant fucks, starting fights, pushing people around and not giving shit about anyone but themselvses. Although in the 60s people would be welcoming you, offering you CLEAN drugs, minding their own business and just appreciating the quality of life. Now a days people could give two shits whether your dead, living or dying. WEED.

One of the most incredible , historic shows I've ever seen.
Their vocals were the best I have EVER heard live.
Long live the spirit of peace and love of that time.
Thank God I was alive then and can remember it.

Ok remember they tried another woodstock twice and both were a disaster, it's not about woodstock the festival it's about the ideology that people were forced into. R u for the war or against are you for minority rights or against for big business or against are u greedy or altruistic etc,etc. It's the same divisions that are in a large still going on. So the musicians were not separated from that, they were just able to express that sentiment through music and we dug them for it.

There is also a "forgotten" version of this song by a band called Matthew's Southern Comfort. While Joni's version was a lament,and CSNY's version an all -out rocker,the Mathew's Southern Comfort version was somewhere in between. Kind of has a mellower almost countryish vibe to it. Give it a listen if you haven't already heard it back in the day. It's on Youtube.

This song has been written by Joni Mitchell apparently during the same days and nights in which Woodstock 69' was going on.

Owned nice homes, put 2 kids through College, Wore a tie, paid my taxes and never smoked weed since 1982. Now I'm semi-retired and am STILL a freakin' hippie at heart!
