I didn\'t go to Woodstock. I had to work at a Howard Johnson\'s Restaurant in I-84 just over into Connecticut. The city was Danbury.

I remember waiting on many folks that nite as they were returning to their homes. They stopped by the restaurant to get their first decent meal in many days. Everyone looked worn and tired.

It wasn\'t until this past May (Memorial Day) thaty I actually got to Bethel Woods and walked around the site.

Just before that I finished reading the Book \"Taking Woodstock\" by Elliot Tiber with Tom Monte. I\'ll see the movie when it comes out the anniversary weekend.

\"It was the music that helped define my life.\"
