Woodstock

Today is the 50th anniversary of the Woodstock Festival that took place in a New York suburb. I think that people of my age would remember the festival in which several rock musicians participated. Though the Woodstock Fest did accompany negative factors such as drugs and hippies, promotion of good softrock was welcome by numerous pop music fans then. (I remember how I used to complete my Physics Lab at college and rush home to listen to Woodstock proceedings on Voice of America).
