This is a short montage of images from the Woodstock Festival held from August 15th to August 18th of 1969 in Bethel, New York. Max Yasgur graciously allowed the use of his 600 acre dairy farm for the massive three day event. Woodstock of 1969 is widely considered to be one of the defining moments in rock music history. It was a gathering of over half a million people of all ages with one common purpose: to experience peace, love, and music.

Update 4/25/11: Over 300,000 views! Thanks for watching and sharing your opinions.

I recently made a new video, so if you are a Beatles fan, check it out here:

  • Fuck 2011... Somebody send me back in time to 1969!

  • Hello, All. While I did NOT like the drugs(never tried them myself), I teach my children that the best part of Woodstock was the fact that THAT MANY PEOPLE could be crowded into a small area & not have even one fist fight break out. I don't agree that the lack of violence was ONLY due to all the smoking & snorting. People gathered to hear excellent music & demonstrate living together in PEACE. They WANTED to all get along. So, to you ALL I do wish Peace, Love, Bread & Justice.

  • song name please ? :)

  • I was there too with my guitar, girlfirend, 2 members of my band, and maybe 9-10 other people who crammed into the Ford Econoline panel van that I borrowed as we left from Brooklyn NY. At first I didn't want to go (too large for me), and we already knew that it was going to be a free concert before it was actually was. But my friends twisted my arm and off we went at night. The NY Thruway ended up getting shut down, but I knew the area and managed to get in via back roads. I'm so glad I went.

  • only a thousand more views to go and I'll be happy.

  • i want to be there ughaeituhketarkur

  • @Shortbus5100 Hello. Yes, I understand. I wasn't there either. I lived several states away. I do know ONE PERSON who did attend. She was 10 years old at the time; her parents took her & her siblings; they stayed in a local hotel room. She says she didn't realize at the time what a big deal it was & would be even decades later. At least they filmed it, huh? Best Wishes to You. PEACE & LOVE, BREAD & JUSTICE!

  • live free or die
