Yes. This should be a cover story for the magazine.

Totally agree with Race! You guys gotta make this the cover story for the anniversary.

I just finished reading The Road to Woodstock, and it’s a great read about Woodstock.

I also brought Woodstock 40th Anniversary in Blu-ray format, it’s great!

I’ve lived in Cleveland my entire life, and I must say, though there are many things to be disappointed about with our city… We’ll always have the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Hey, I was there! I think?

How is the Mountain set in the just released video, what did they play?

I do NOT care at all for this Hall of Shame. The Sex Pistols and Ramones getting IN BEFORE The Dave Clark Five and Steppenwolf? What a joke the hall is. duncanw.

An exhibition about the freakin’ Woodstock event ‘aint exactly telling the whole truth and maybe none of the truth!

Any real lates sixties / early seventies dude / dudette or event worth their salt was too high to remember anything much less details.

Good try RRHF but no way…no way!

Come on…this is a cash grab!

Woodstock was the real deal…it really happened! I was only a toddler then but I still remember the “strange” tie-dyed t-shirts everyone was wearing and psychedelic kid’s shows like “Seymour and the Sea Monsters” “The Banana Splits” etc. The closest I ever got was the thrill I experienced attending the opening ceremonies and the R&R Hall of Fame Concert at Cleveland Municipal Stadium in September of 1995. (Up until then, Lollapalooza 1991 with NIN and Jane’s Addiction was the best and biggest “event” I ever attended.) The R&R HofF show booked acts like Chrissy Hynde, Tom Patty and Bruce Springsteen. Later that night we ended up at The Euclid Tavern to witness a very late show by The Jesus Lizard and ended up drinking pitchers of Pabst Blue Ribbon with David Yow at that infamous Cleveland dive – that’s the kind of kick-ass/take no prisoners approach Cleveland had to offer the music scene. The following month that year saw the Page & Plant Tour roll into town. I managed to have a brief conversation with Jimmy Page as he was casually eating lunch prior to their show at the Hard Rock Cafe… (at Tower City, the magnificent complex which used to be the B&O/Union Pacific/Penn Central Railway station. He commented on how wonderfully Cleveland had evolved since the construction of the R&R Hall of Fame and all the ancillary projects that sprung up with it. Sadly, 1995 was the last year that Cleveland was relevant. Ever since then it has been a long excruciating demise. I couldn’t take the city’s death throes any longer and relocated to Phoenix where we get a stunning array of new artists as well as established acts. Besides, Coachella’s only a 4 hour ride west…you get the drift…PEACE, LOVE & MUSIC, MAN!!!

i was indeed there, and have to disagree w/WANK DOPEHEAD. Sure, there was stuff at Woodstock, but it was HARDLY the point! But UNlike some of the ‘dope festivals’ the proceeded W.S. in an effort to regain some of it’s FUNK, it truly WAS about the music, and about a LOT of our heroes ALL being in the SAME PLACE at once! The whole thing was SO OVERWHELMING to me (already becoming a rock ‘n blues warrior at 15- and hope I still AM!) I decided early on that- aside from the ass-pocket of Bali Hai I had on the bus up from the GWB Port Authority, that I would HAVE to stay straight to be able to TAKE IN as much of the spectacle, fun, funk, dancing, rocking, & communing w/my R’n Roll brethren, & aside fm maybe a hit of pot that made it to the front on Sun aftnn, I DID. Hey, I HAD TO if I wanted to MAKE IT till Jimi played!! To this day, I’m glad I stayed basically ALIVE & AWARE. Heck, we could get loaded ANYTIME, pretyy much. I’m sure I wasn’t the only only one who KNEW- this was SPECIAL. I always say Woodstock was when & where I FIRST awoke….
