The Challenge Of Getting There

First things first: transportation, of course. You would have to join tens of thousands of other people who flocked to Bethel, New York, to get into the event. The roads appeared to be parking lots! It is not surprising to hear that individuals have decided to just go on foot. The roads eventually closed down, which meant that some people did not even reach the road leading to the festival.

The Legendary Jimi Hendrix

Festivalgoers had to wait three whole days before Jimi Hendrix finally came on stage. His rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner has undoubtedly become so legendary that many associate it with the festival. The band he performed with at Woodstock was a temporary crew. Before the festival, the usual band broke up, so he needed to find people immediately.
