The style of clothing at Woodstock in 1969 was characterized by a countercultural, bohemian aesthetic. Attendees often wore colorful, flowing garments such as tie-dye shirts, bell-bottom jeans, and maxi dresses, along with accessories like headbands, beads, and peace symbols. This style reflected the era's embrace of freedom, individuality, and a rejection of mainstream fashion norms. Comfort and self-expression were key, with many opting for layered, relaxed outfits suitable for the festival's outdoor setting.

drugs were used at Woodstock because it was Woodstock, and that's how it went down. peace.

Woodstock was initiated through the efforts of Michael Lang, John Roberts, Joel Rosenman and Artie Kornfeld. It was Roberts and Rosenman who had the finances. Lang had experience as a promoter and had already organized the largest festival on the East Coast at the time, the Miami Pop Festival, which had an estimated 100,000 people attend the two day event.

The idea of a Woodstock nation still exists today. When people come together and strive for a peaceful existence world wide within that group is a part of Woodstock. The event was held for 4 days in 1969, and then again in 1994 and 1999.

The youngest performer at Woodstock 1969 was Michael Shrieve. Michael was the drummer for Santana. He was born July 6th 1949, making him 20 years old at the Festival. Several other performers were 20 that year too, but Mr Shrieve was the youngest.

Henry Gross the guitarist of Sha Na Na was born April 1st 1951, which makes him 18 years old at Woodstock is the youngest.

In spite of negative news reports in the beginning, Woodstock was a success, Michael Lang did what he set out to do, put on an outdoor concert event. Considering the amount of people gathered in one place the event was historic, there was no violence and many people donated food. The organizers did not make any money, and were sued by numerous vendors and nearby farmers, so in that respect it could be seen as a disaster, but the performers, attendees and organizers don't view it as such.

Tickets for the three-day event cost $18 in advance and $24 at the gate.

Tough question..since the group at the time sang in (almost) perfect harmony, with no discernable lead voice on many of their recordings. David Crosby was undeniably the main voice on most of that particular cut, along with considerable help in the high register from ex-Holly Graham Nash, support from ex-Buffalo Springfield Steven Stills, and a lot of overdubbing. Hope that helps...

Nugent smoked some joints in 1967 and hated it. He went straight edge, believing that any outside element makes you "lesser than you were prior to taking it." Even though he had long hair and looked like a Hippie, he made it clear that he had no use for that lifestyle, and thought marijuana made people lethargic and lazy. He didn't play in the concert for that reason. He knew a lot of drug would be there.

They play the two-headed drum, also called the Naal drum.

As the festival ends, estimates of the number of people who attended vary widely. The state police estimate is 450,000, a figure frequently rounded to half a million. A newspaper editor on the scene claimed the total was probably closer to 150,000, but a Bethel historian says it's actually closer to 700,000. Due to the lack of an adequate ticket selling and collecting system, we'll never know for sure.

The Bethel Woods Center for the Arts says, at its website, that it is located "(a)t the site of the 1969 Woodstock festival." If that information is correct then I'd guess that the farm's address would be the same as the Center's: 200 Hurd Road, Bethel, NY.

. It was supposed from August 15 to 18, 1969 but the three day turned into four. It was the muddies concert of all.

In some cultures the woodstock represented the abundance of food in the granary.

It was held in Max Yasgur's 600-acre dairy farm in the town of Bethel, New York. It was supposed from August 15 to 18, 1969 but the three day turned into four.

It began as an Artie Kornfeld/Michael Lang proposal to build a recording studio in Woodstock NY. The two approached John Roberts and Joel Rosenman, New York City entrepreneurs, for funding. Rosenman suggested they scrap the studio idea and have a concert instead. They chose the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival as a model. They had no idea, until shortly before Woodstock took place, that millions would be drawn to the festival and that close to 500,000 would actually gain entry to the site. In August of 1969, the "counterculture" of the late 60's transformed a concert into a legendary event that named a generation.
