At first glance, everyone is bored. Then you realize everyone is stoned, and probably having their mind blown at the same time.

@ad-xf8bb

Just like me, right now.

@IsabellaHale

@IsabellaHale

Charles Manson will burn in hell where he belongs.

@Orieus

lol, i agree, they are so stoned and getting their minds blown its amazing lol

@IsabellaHale

Where did you get that idea? reading a history book or UTUBE? Pop Festivals were completely different venues than Concerts where some actually had NO seating like Janis Joplin which I saw.. and the ones in stadiums where seating was stadium style but as I recall it.. everyone stood up the whole time even three hour festivals. I lived it. When you are 19 standing up and dancing for 6 hours straight or whatever was not problem. Anyone who actually attended "music" in those days.. well attest to that. but anyway.. have a good day.

I was at this concert. I was 17 years old and somewhere in the audience. People were sitting around because this was an all day festival with lots of bands. Very hot also.

@enaepriscila

What a f... envy I have of you!

@felipeguzman7834

@richardbetts7088

You are a very lucky man indeed, when you watch Jimi play that guitar you realise nobody is going to that good, you will always be second.
I sold the guitar and raced bikes instead 😂
