What was Woodstock really like? Original festival attendees in the Syracuse area share their stories of peace, love, music, drugs and more at the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair. More than 400,000 attended the three-day concert in Upstate New York to witness legendary performances by Santana, Joe Cocker, Sly & The Family Stone, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Who, and more.
See interviews with John Villanueva, who was on stage at Woodstock as a percussion tech for Santana, and festival attendees Molly McCoy and Dave Tiedemann to get the real experience on the 50th anniversary of Woodstock. “I’d never been with so many people… and that was very life-changing,” Tiedemann recalls.
