253 - Woodstock

In 1969, some of the most iconic acts of the 1960s performed at Woodstock for four days of peace love and music. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Who, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Santana and many more took to the stage. But despite going down in history as one of the greatest festivals of all time, Woodstock was almost an unmitigated disaster. Last minute venue changes, bad weather, no security and a lack of food... combined with hundreds of thousands of extra people showing up, it really is a miracle it went ahead at all.Buy tickets to our streamed shows (there are 8 available, all with exclusive extra sections): https://sospresents.com/authors/dogoonSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes: patreon.com/DoGoOnPodCheck out our web series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2TuMQ31VXvqqEus9Bo6FZW-dDY5ukEuh Submit a topic idea directly to the hat: dogoonpod.com/Submit-a-TopicTwitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: [email protected] out our other podcasts:Book Cheat: https://play.acast.com/s/book-cheatPrime Mates: https://play.acast.com/s/prime-mates/Listen Now: https://play.acast.com/s/listen-now/Our awesome theme song by Evan Munro-Smith and logo by Peader ThomasREFERENCES AND FURTHER READING:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbWRIxsjhmQ&t=911shttps://allthatsinteresting.com/woodstock-festival-1969https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodstockhttps://www.vulture.com/2018/10/the-whos-roger-daltrey-had-the-worst-time-at-woodstock.html Hosted on Acast.
