I'm glad I grew up with the 'brat pack' and Revenge of the Nerds rather than generation X death culture. The first Woodstock was great but the rest went downhill LOL

The first Woodstock had it's problems (attendees burned down the food stands then too). Abbie Hoffman blackmailed the promoters into giving him $10,000 and a free table so as not to disrupt the event. Even then Pete Townsend had to whack Abbie with his guitar when Abbie tried to take the microphone during the Who's 3am performance.

The eco-generation left an environmental nightmare behind.

Altamont and the Isle of Wight festivals came with their own problems.
