WoodStock 40th Reunion

Barbara wrote this morning and wanted to post a reminder of the 40th anniversary of WoodStock held the summer of our graduating year. I found a few links for those who wanted more:

"In the early morning hours of Sunday, August 17, 1969, forty years ago this Sunday, the Jefferson Airplane took the stage at Woodstock. As the first band booked to play the festival, they were supposed to have played a headline slot on Saturday night, but like so many other artists, their set was interminably delayed. The Airplane had the unenviable task of following the Who, but they were at the peak of their powers, with their original lineup still intact, and the great piano player Nicky Hopkins sitting in."
