WOODSTOCK




(Barry Thomson, Marion Loudon, Mali Sewell, Dawn Selby & Jason Andrew)

Last year was the 45th anniversary of the 'three days of peace & music' celebration, 'Woodstock' where 32 acts performed to an audience of 400,000 young people. It took place from August 15 to 18 1969 on Max Yasgur's 600 acre dairy farm in the New York town of Bethel. Creedence Clearwater Revival were the first act to sign a contract and this persuaded other big acts to follow suit. The Rolling Stone magazine listed Woodstock as one of the '50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll'.
