Forty years ago, half a million people gathered for three days of peace, love and letting their private parts flap all over the hashish-covered mud at a place called Woodstock. This event exists as mythology for most of our readers, who only know it from a series of photographs and wistful documentaries.
This might be a tad morbid, but thatâs the way it goes sometimesâ¦. A friend recently sent me an email containing a link to a news story about the death of a 1960s musician. Well, he was probably a musician later in life as well, but was most famous during the â60s. I cranked off a reply that was something along these lines: âHuh. Wonder how many of the original Woodstock performers are dead now? Forty percent?â Turns out the musician in the article hadnât even performed at the festival. I was mistaken, but still curious about the Woodstock Death Count. I did some Google searches, and came up with nothing. Nobody, it seemed, was keeping a running tally. And so, once again, itâs been left to me to crunch the numbers. First it was Deadwood, and now Woodstock. Itâs a heavy burden I carry, my friends.
