Woodstock: Three Days That Defined a Generation S31.E9 Episode aired Aug 6, 2019.
There are a lot of commentaries on Woodstock. Some are more complete than others. Some with a slant or an ax to grind. This presentation, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Woodstock, 1969, by American Experience, is complete and neutral except for the title “Three Days that Defined a Generation."
Instead of just focusing on a few main musical personalities, this presentation covers almost everything from the concept to the end. There are even a few excursions to the outermost fringes of the Woodstock location. We get first-hand commentaries from people who have been there and done that. Too bad they did not show the people speaking.
By the end of the presentation, you feel that you have been there.
I was stationed 52 miles up the Hudson and had an opportunity to go to the fringes. I missed all the good stuff. Drove to it in a car that is “unsafe at any speed” with paisley carpeting.
By the way, this did not define my generation.
