Woodstock was an iconic rock and roll festival that had a lot of energy, and I think that it should still be hosted.

I agree.  It sounded amazing!! Over 400000 people attended!

Some of my favorite artists such as Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin have headlined at Woodstock. It was a blast.

Aparently there were 32 different acts performed during the weekend.  How amazing would it have been to see Jimi Hendrix!!

It's a shame that he didn't live and perform for much longer. Jimi Hendrix was very young when he passed away.

I know, he was only 27 years old when he died in london.

Woodstock has a drug use connotation attached to it and many of the musicians were high when they performed. That's probably why they shut Woodstock down.

Is that right? I didnt know that but even so, the famous rolling stone mag listed it as one of the 50 to moments that changed the history of rock and roll, and to be honest I couldnt agree more.
