For 25.00 of free fish, who want's to play TUIC July trivia in August?!

No need to think too hard about this one, all you (well) aging hippies.
Be the first person to correctly answer all the below questions.

Something very, very big occurred on Max Yasgur's 600 acre dairy farm in Bethel, NY 40 years ago this weekend. WHAT HAPPENED?!

What band or musician performed the most number of songs at this event?

Who quickly wrote a song about this event, even though he/she was not in attendance?

Twenty five years after the actual festival, a 'reunion' event was held nearby the original site.
The list of performers here was extremely varied. However, there were two bands (well, 75% of one band, all of the other) that performed at both events. Please name them.

Can you name at least 4 headlining musicians/band members who performed at this original 1969 event that now reside in Rock and Roll Heaven (where you know they got a hell of a band!)

Lastly, post a photo, any photo you like (within reason please) that was taken at this event 40 years ago.
 
Woodstock!

Can't find who preformed the most! :irked:

Leslie West and Mountain

Bret Sommer
Felix Pappalardi
Pigpen McKerman
