Detailed explanation-1: -Woodstock was an opportunity for people to escape into music and spread a message of unity and peace. Although the crowd at Woodstock experienced bad weather, muddy conditions and a lack of food, water and adequate sanitation, the overall vibe there was harmonious.
Detailed explanation-2: -The legacy of the Woodstock Festival-which took place in Bethel, New York, from Friday, August 15th, 1969, through the morning of Monday, August 18th-rests on the fact that a half-million hippies turned a muddy, gridlocked area into a site that symbolized peace and love.
Detailed explanation-3: -The festival had a couple different names: Bethel Rock Festival, the Aquarian Music Festival, but the name Woodstock came from the town of Woodstock, New York, where there was a community of artists and musicians who lived there-artists like Bob Dylan.
