Woodstock Festival

In the past class we watched the Woodstock festival. Woodstock was interesting cause it was overnight and cause there were so many people. The people who set up cleared fields and set up the stage, campsites, and places to bring food and water. There were only expected to be about 50,000 people a day, but they were terribly wrong. From the stage there were people as far as the camera could look, and there were bands playing all through the nights. The festival itself was both a failure and a success. It was a failure at first, because it lost 3 million dollars, and that was back in 1969. It was a success because it pleased the people, and later made money from the documentary and and album. The Woodstock festival was important to music history because it was one of the first times where bands played in front of massive crowds.
