I WAS YOUNG(17}AND WAS FORBIDDEN TO GO. I KNEW I JUST HAD TO. I'M GLAD I DID BECAUSE TWO MONTHS AFTER THAT I MOVED TO FLA AND NEVER REALLY STAYED CLOSR TO MY SO CALLED FRIENDS. IT WAS UN-BELIEVEABLE FOR ME AS I MISSED WOODSTOCK BECAUSE OF THE RAIN. NEXT BEST THING, MORE PEOPLE FOR SURE, LESS BANDS BUT GOOD ONES. AT THE TIME MY WHOLE CREW FROM STAPELTON,STATEN ISLAND WAS FOLLOWING THE ALLMAN BROS WHERE EVER THEY PLAYED. LOT'S OF DRUGS AND THEY WERE FREE, DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY MUCH ABOUT BAD PEOPLE AT THAT TIME. HALF MY FRIENDS WERE ARRESTED FOR BEING IN A STOLEN VECHICLE AND NEVER MADE IT. I LOOK AT MY PICS I TOOK TODAY AND MOST OF MY FRIENDS IN THEM ARE NOW DEAD. ALOT FROM DRUG OVER DOSES. I NEVER REALLY TOOK THEM TO THE LIMIT. NOT ONE TO HAVE ANYTHING RUN MY LIFE OTHER THAN MY GREAT AND NOW DECEASED MOTHER. GOD BLESS HER. SHE TAUGHT ME WELL AND ALWAYS TALKED TO ME LIKE A FRIEND. I WENT TO A FEW GOOD LARGE CONCERTS DOWN HERE AND GLAD I MOVED AWAY SINCE ALL MY FRIENDS WERE DYING FROM DRUGS. MISS THOSE OLD DAYS, THE BAD WITH THE GOOD. MANY GOOD MEMORIES,GOOD DRUGS AND GOOD PEOPLE ESP THE MUSIC. GLAD I GREW UP THEN!!! PEACE!sBY THE WAY, IT RAINED,BUT WE DID SO MUCH THC THAT IT LOOKED MORE LIKE GLITTER! I THINK I STILL HAVE FLASHBACKS. I'M GLAD TO HAVE THAT FROM THAT ERA. TO SAY THE LEAST,ALL THE BANDS WERE AWESOME. I STILL HAVE THE T-SHIRT. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE ALLMANS DOING WHIPPING POST AT MIDNIGHT? AND A GOOD DAY TOO ALL! SPEAKING OF GARBAGE,WE STAYED AND HELPED CLEAN UP AND I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE GONE WITH MY OLDER FRIENDS WHO HAD A VW BUS AND WERE PARKED RIGHT OUTSIDE THE GATE. I THINK I WAS HIGH FOR DAYS AFTER THAT. THINK I STILL AM!!!
