Woodstock
David Dalton, Gadfly, August 1999
Woodstock. August 15, 16, 17, 1969. Three days of peace, love and music. For the past thirty years, it has been touted as a new stage in the psychic evolution of the world, a mass celebration of what the 1960s was all about, the miraculous assembly of a new species.
