There’s No Way It Wasn’t A Party

Woodstock was never actually meant to be as big as it was. The festival was to gather like-minded people who loved music to spend time in the countryside with each other, in the presence of the beats that made the ’60s so awesome.

The peace and love movement was at its peak, so there were bound to be more people invited than planned because the festival was the epitome of the national mood. Throw in a bunch of young people in the same mix with rock and roll and a celebratory atmosphere, and you’ve got yourself one of the biggest outdoor parties of all time.
