Too wet, too long a walk from any parking area, and a minimum of 20 bucks to park in someone's drive or on their lawn (20 bucks back then was about $160 today). I hadn't been out of the Marines long enough to enjoy walking again, even though I wasn't a grunt. |

Just totally full of excellence. Thanks for that. 7 of us headed for Woodstock in an Econoline van and we were well on our way AND we were well on our way and were turned back at the US border in Niagara Falls. So, in a stroke of brilliance, my buddy drove us north to the Lewiston border, where the border man looked at his watch and said: "You guys made good time all the way from Niagara Falls..and NO, you're not getting in." In retrospect it was a good thing that they didn't even bother pulling us over into secondary to search us.... .. |

It's sometimes nice to encounter "law enforcement officials" with a sense of humour. In retrospect it was a good thing that they didn't even bother pulling us over into secondary to search us.... It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. We tend to remeber the best of times - and forget the worst of that same period. I hope we someday get to the best of those times - and get out of the worst times we're in right now - or on the verge of. Being on the Other Coast, we did our own version - BEFORE Altamont and the Stones blew it - big time. http://web.hypersurf.com/~charlieb/3daybein.htm I was the best of times. It was the worst of times. charlie b |

You'd head-bang your socks off one minute to Hendrix and got washed away by Judy Collins the next. It was all good. To divide this cockeyed world in two Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do. Beatniks and politics, nothing in new A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view Who care what games we choose? Little to win, but nothin' to lose. |

There /was/ good music - some great music - but there was also Kent State and music like John Stewart's "If you don't look around". I guess the "good" depended on the beholder and the moment. To me, it didn't all feel good. I'm with charlieb. -- Morris Dovey DeSoto Solar DeSoto, Iowa USA http://www.iedu.com/DeSoto/ |

Not if you're the guy who has to stay straight enough to deal with Suits and Uniforms - alas - a role I was often assigned - often by default rather than choice. On the plus side though, I'm one of the few who actually remember most of it - even behind some Hells Angles Window Pane Acid. It's a gift, or a curse depending on how you look at it, being The Responsible One. Having to find out if a friend's father was killed in a plane crash - in the middle of a mescaline trip - will really test one's ability to focus. He wasn't on the plane that crashed at La Guardia that night - with no survivors. |

I'm living proof that if you REALLY lived through the 60's, you don't remember them.. Luckily, I had a few friends that were more restrained and filled the gaps in for me.. I recently downloaded the some live music from Woodstock... It was cool, but just not the same without a high THC level.. ;-[ At what age did our drug of choice become ibuprofen? mac Please remove splinters before emailing |

I didn't even start "happening" till I was 19 which was 1969 and had come home from a year of small-town college in southern Colorado (another story for another time). But I blossomed soon thereafter and I was all over it like flies on ****. At what age did our drug of choice become ibuprofen? Like the old saying goes: "If I had known I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself." Dave in Houston |
