This crowd is en route to Woodstock, the iconic outdoor festival held in New York state in 1969.Rolling Stone has called Woodstock “one of the 50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll” — no wonder the line was so long.The 1969 Woodstock Festival’s most famous act may have been Jimi Hendrix who appeared after rain delays.
