Is that REALLY Jennifer Warren in the round glasses? It sure looks like her. Or is it just a festival goer that looks like her? I've always associated the shot of her being filmed during Santana's performance, or is that wrong too? Was it really during THIS performance of Bert and they just spliced it into Santana's footage for the movie?

Bert, you beautiful angel. All the beautiful people of Woodstck, you were/are so beautiful.

Art Kornfield got muddled after his departcher from Bert at the beginning of the video; what with being stoned and aircraft flying directly overhead an all.
