Woodstock Music and Art Fair: An Aquarian Exposition
Max Yasgur's Dairy Farm - Bethel, NY
August 15 - 18, 1969
Fifty years ago today at 5:07 pm, Richie Havens took the stage and played the first notes at what would become the most iconic gathering in the history of music.
Starting at 5:07 pm today, Philadelphia's WXPN Radio will broadcast the reconstructed audio archive of the concert. Every moment of audio recording that exists today - the concerts, the announcements, everything - will be shared in as close to real-time as possible. If you live in or around Philadelphia, you can listen to it at 88.5 FM. If you live out of the area, you will be able to stream Woodstock for free on your PC or via their mobile app, available on Google Play and the Apple Store. The schedule is below. Stop in and experience a moment of peace, love and music.
