Strawberry Fields, held at Mosport Motorsports Park was an amazing event. As we were climbing over the fence, Jose Feliciano had just started "Light My Fire". The three days were magic. I never made it to Woodstock but Vancouver had The Aldergrove Lake Folk Festival in 1967, Mission Mountain in '68 and Squamish in "69 that featured the Doors
