The Woodstock Music and Art Fair was a historic event held at Max Yasgur's 600 acre (2.4 km²; 240 ha) dairy farm in the rural town of Bethel, New York from August 15 to August 18, 1969. Bethel (Sullivan County) is 43 miles (69 km) southwest of the town of Woodstock, New York, which is in adjoining Ulster County.To many, the festival exemplified the counterculture of the 1960s and the "hippie era." Thirty-two of the best-known musicians of the day appeared during the sometimes rainy weekend. Although attempts have been made over the years to recreate the festival, the original event has proven to be unique and legendary. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest moments in music history and was listed on Rolling Stone's 50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll.The event was captured in a successful 1970 movie, Woodstock, and Joni Mitchell's song "Woodstock", which memorialized the event and became a major hit for Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

First performer...you young folk need to watch this film and realize alot of the e not popular until after this film...such as Richie,Santana,Alvin Lee,etc.Santana didn't have a recording contract until after their incredible performance here.A year later Joe Cocker had a couple of huge hits and Santana released their first great album..Evil Ways.Carry on..and peace to all..

He's saying, "Turn my guitar mic up, please. My guitar mic".

Just like 39 years ago at Yasgur's farm he broke a string playing Motherless Child tonight at the Admiral theater in Bremerton Wa. If he comes to your town you must go. America the Beautiful
