But I was only 1-1/2 years old in 1969, so too young to remember anything about Woodstock...<br /><br />Somehow, I can't picture Roy Rogers singing Happy Trails to close out the show!!<br /><br />KellyDesignTieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561438683476880640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118984659862108570.post-43988399029229202002009-08-18T20:31:15.306-05:002009-08-18T20:31:15.306-05:00What amazing pictures.

For my mom's part, she (along with her sorority sisters) marched on Washington to protest the war in '69. These are some of my favorite pictures of her, with her Cher hair and her bright orange minidress. <br /><br />My dad, on the other hand, skipped out on his college graduation because of a planned war protest that he didn't want his parents to see -- two of his cousins were currently in 'Nam, one of whom was so badly injured he spent most of 1970 in a hospital, and he didn't want his folks to see any protesting/violence.Averillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05758556623588696377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118984659862108570.post-72171813519045622502009-08-17T12:23:10.056-05:002009-08-17T12:23:10.056-05:00What an awesome picture collection of a very speci...What an awesome picture collection of a very special event.

I was born in 1970 so I missed all that and never really new what it was all about. I'm not into any of that music either but find the whole thing kind of fascinting. Sha Na Na was there!

Because we were in NY state, when ever we went through mass casualty training, Woodstock was always, always reenacted. And then they held that reunion and we all had to stand there to have a real reenactment - and it was not pretty when they got old and high... nope. <br /><br />Marked my youth too... :)The Blushing Hostesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16303502206261407536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118984659862108570.post-77455679119083545592009-08-16T15:08:56.188-05:002009-08-16T15:08:56.188-05:00LOL.

It must have been an amazing time... I think any attempts at recreating Woodstock can never come close. It was all about the way people felt at the time and doing it for a real reason, as opposed to trying to relive something.
