    Yup, IIRC, there was also a stellar performance by Ron at Woodstock Music and Art Fair, closing with, "Turn On Your Love Light", glaring tech difficulties and all....

    I too would have been six at the time. No, scratch that, five. Once the promoters had broken even and more, didn't they open the floodgates and let everyone else in for free? Sadly, this is the way I experienced it, tail-of-the-comet as always...

    Woodstock was a Financial Disaster! The Promoters were scrambling trying how to slow the flow of humanity! New York Freeway was CLOSED!! Local farmers couldn't have the milk their cows provided picked up so it was just dumped!

    The funds from the film (which I saw at age 17) helped recoup some of the loses that the investors had put up.

    Here's something from Woodstock that I love!



    And another!

    Fair enough, yet recall that my supposition was posed as a question. At some point, things went from charging entry to free entry. Power to the people indeed.
