"Today marks the 50th Anniversary of..."

















I wish I could have been there to see, Joplin, Hendricks, and many more.....

There is a good Movie about this event call "Taking Woodstock"
Directed by Ang Lee, released in 2009.
This fictional movie will give you a feeling that 
how this monumental event had happened.
It has many interesting side stories, and casting is quite something.

And, YES, you can always watch the documentary film "Woodstock" 

It is hard believe this is where it happened 50 years ago.
