Woodstock And Its Significance On The Music Industry
Woodstock was a music festival on August 15-18, 1969. It took place on Max Yasgur’s dairy farm in Bethel, New York. It may look like a simple music festival today, but it gathered around 500,000 people at that time. It stood tall to its goal of creating safe space, peace, and free love.
Its significance marked a pivotal moment in music history and the counterculture generation. It was even breathed out in a documentary film in 1970. “Rolling Stone” placed it 19th on the Moments That Changed Rock & Roll list. To top it all, the field where Woodstock occurred was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
