Most of the people never heard a lot of the music. The music was not what defined Woodstock. There were plenty of opportunities to see any of those acts. Woodstock was the largest gathering of people in the history of America. All working together helping each other with love. 500,000 people living in PEACE. Maybe the rest of the world should be zonked out on acid if that's what it takes to live in peace. Woodstock...Three days of Peace and Music...too bad it couldn't have been Three Millenium.

@cutis1000 You're absolutely right. But with the sound systems of the day and the enormous crowd many people couldn't begin to hear the music. It became MUCH more than a rock concert is what I was trying to convey. It was THE event that defined a generation.

@glennhmartin Music may not have defined woodstock? Well, it sure has hell was the reason half a million people came together at Yasgur's property!

The sincerity of this man, and how he was moved by all of this,is unmistakable, far above any details.woodstock showed the world something important and max yasgur knew it and felt it.

Yasgur was a gentleman and a scholar. RIP my friend.

[laneatlileden]

@ortleyman first off, saying that most of the people at this concert were from middle to upper class families is complete bullshit. i would love to know what factual statistics your basing that off of. there was 400,00 people there. your telling me they were all spoiled snobs? second, people like you are the reason why there is no peace love and understanding "shit" anymore. cuz ignorant fucks like you are so fucking close minded and fucking stupid. ww
