By , About.com Guide

Rock-and-Roll Concert at Woodstock (1969): From August 15-18, 1969, 500,000 young people from across the United States converged on Max Yasgur's 600-acre dairy farm in Bethel, New York. They were there to listen to the best rock 'n roll of the time at the Woodstock Festival of 1969. There were lots of drugs, lot of sex and nudity, and lots of mud. The Woodstock Music Festival became an icon of the 1960s hippie counterculture.
