Woodstock: 1969 – Peace-lovers join
September 15, 1989
1989 marked the twenty-year anniversary of Woodstock, where 500,000 teenagers had gathered on a farm in Woodstock, New York for a once-in-a-lifetime music festival that would likely never be topped or even equaled. For the twentieth anniversary, students were asked whether something like Woodstock could ever be repeated. The response? It’s highly unlikely to ever happen again on the sheer scale that the original had. The cultural impact alone of that event was immeasurable.
