Flowery Desperation

This lady in the picture probably forgot to carry her ticket to the Woodstock festival, and she seems to be putting up the bouquet for sale to, you know, get the ticket! We all have that entrepreneurial spirit that kicks in at the most desperate moments, and for the girl, the flowers were all she had to offer.

Whether she was successful in her sale or getting the ticket is a story for another day, but for now, let’s give it to her for trying! Even sneaking in seems to be an option here!

The Highlight Of A Generation

A generation of music artists assembled on a piece of land in Woodstock‘s rural town to celebrate music with peace and love, and to this day, there has been nothing like it.

Images taken from the gathering of almost half a million people prove that there is bound to be a good time for everyone to promote a lovingly peaceful atmosphere with are good music and enthusiasm. Don’t you just wish you could relive that era to witness Jimi Hendrix and the rest of the crew in the most monumental music concert of the 20th century?

More Than Just One Version Of The Story!

US civil servants everywhere were surprised to the core by the conditions of Woodstock, especially with Bethel being named the third-largest city in New York City. But that did not stop the festival-goers from having fun as they swayed to some good old rock and roll music and spreading some positivity and peace!

Outside the festival area, however, everyone was worried about what would happen next, and even the State Governor was alarmed and declared Bethel as a disaster-prone area. Could there possibly be a better example of the phrase “two sides to every story?” Fun on one side and doomsday on the other!

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.
