I was one and a half years old when I was at Woodstock. I missed the Atlanta Festival though.

I probably smoked weed with your mom and/or dad there.

It took place in July, 1969 just one month before Woodstock.


Here's a 6 minute YouTube video of it with Led Zeppelin and Janis Joplin in it.

I remember Led Zeppelin because they performed at night when it was cooler.

There was some kind of metal building there with a hundred or so people standing on the roof while they watched Led Zeppelin perform.

They were all stomping their feet to the music so hard on the roof that I thought the roof was going to collapse.

Fortunately it didn't.
