Woodstock: Three Days that Defined a Generation
In August 1969, nearly half a million people gathered at a farm in upstate New York to hear music. What happened over the next three days, however, was far more than a concert. Woodstock: Three Days that Defined a Generation turns the lens back at the audience, at the swarming, impromptu city that grew up overnight on a few acres of farmland. The teeming mass of humanity, the rain-soaked, starving, tripping, half-a-million strong throng of young people, was a manifestation of the “peace and love” the festival had touted and a validation of the counterculture’s promise to the world.
