>> I was hanging around that summer so I went with a friend who worked with me at the ski area during the winter season to look for a job at Powder Ridge during the festival. Because we were familiar with the entire property we got instant jobs. The promoter, Sid Luft with his company, Middleton Arts as part of the deal with the property owners had to fire the festival security (colonel somebody or other), that was in place at the time. We were put in charge of festival security! Wow! We were handed walky-talkies and my first job was to stop the ABC, CBS, BBC, and a French broadcasting company from landing helicopters in a field nearby. I drove around the fields in a jeep like I was a maniac just in case they thought about trying a landing I wanted them to think I was probably on drugs so they wouldn't risk it. Gotta go. More later.
