Woodstock promoted itself as "Three Days of Peace and Music". Due to massive traffic delays and sporadic horrible weather, it actually took place over four days from Friday, August 15 to Monday, August 18, 1969. But it wasn't just four ordinary days in the summer of '69. Woodstock was more than a monstrous and unprepared happening in a farmer's field in the Catskills.

Woodstock promoted itself as "Three Days of Peace and Music". Due to massive traffic delays and sporadic horrible weather, it actually took place over four days from Friday, August 15 to Monday, August 18, 1969. But it wasn't just four ordinary days in the summer of '69. Woodstock was more than a monstrous and unprepared happening in a farmer's field in the Catskills. It was a significant turning point for a generation that represented a unique part of human history. It was the largest gathering of its time of young people united by the spirit of love and their willingness to accept each other in every form. Without the normal security forces of armored police, the peace, love, and harmony of a gathering of nearly half a million young people was truly amazing. Politics, religion, war, or economics didn't unite them. It was the music - over three, no...four days of peace and music. And so, we all know (or think we know) what happened at Woodstock in the summer of '69. The music. The drugs. The sex. The mud. The rain. And much more in this instant city of nearly half a million. A drug overdose, an accidental death, and a murder. Based on actual events, this fictionalized account follows a young reporter on his journey to uncover who killed the drummer of one of the groups who were scheduled to perform at Woodstock. He had over 400,000 suspects to draw from. Were you one of them (or wished you were)?
