Hi dear，
Thank you for sending this email, I can open the link but cant turn on the live music, what a pity! I can see the description and and the concert schedule, thats all! So thats why most of the Chinese people at not familiar with Rock music, its too rebellious, obviously not favored by the authority. its called 伍德斯托克音乐节，and I read the background about it on 百度。
1969 is a very interesting year. its the peak time of Cultural revolution，young people were mostly sent to the countryside to reform their mind, including my uncles and aunts at the age from 16-18, and that period has become the most miserable memories in their whole life, full of memories of starvation, hard labour and brain wash, West and East ,both were in the revolutionary time, but went to the opposite ways.
A French guy I know who was just 20 years old in 1969, was a university student, got only 200 US dollar from his father, in that summer vacation with his two other friends, came to US, they tried to go through some places in US and one of the goal was to attend the music festival. During the month, they experienced a lot, they had hichhike most of the time, met some funny guys on the way, one was a veteran who was drinking when driving and with a gun, he threated them that he could kill them all, another time, one old man invited him for a sex party, but told him its only for two of them, when he rejected, the old man dumped him on the road, when he and his friend were walking on the highway , they were caught by police, sent them to the jail for a few days, locked them with some horrible criminals together, as they had no money to pay for penalty, at last the French consulate saved them, another time when he lived in a motel, a young black boy suggested to give him a blow job. Finally they arrived the music festival, had great time, drank, smoke marihuana, had sex with crazy American girls, etc.... He wrote all in his diary and a few years ago he tried to wrote them all in a book about the trip and he sent me some part of the draft in French, I had to google translated them in poor English, and unfortunately I lost the draft in my old computer, I don’t know if he got it published, haven’t contacted him for a few years after that.
Just as you said what a time to have been alive.
Wish you have a good day and enjoy the music, if its possible, keep some nice songs for me, I hope we can enjoy them someday together
