at the heart of Woodstock


When they had the Woodstock music festival, I had a geographical problem.

I was in Ohio.

Woodstock -- with

Janis Joplin
Crosby, Stills & Nash
Richie Havens ("Freedom -- freedom...!")
Country Joe & the Fish ("One-two-three -- what are we fightin' for?...")
Jimi Hendrix



was in upstate New York.

It was a map problem.

I was on the wrong part of the map -- across two state lines from Woodstock...

(If only I'd had access to some Rock And Roll G-P-S...)

Yeah, there's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No, he couldn't look much stranger
Walkin' in the hall with his things and all
Smilin' - said he was the Lone Ranger
