Title: Woodstock
Post by: David Houck on August 20, 2019, 05:31:45 PM

The PBS series, American Experience, has a new documentary on Woodstock.  I haven't watched it yet, but plan to do so soon, and wanted to let you all know.

I enjoyed watching the American Experience Woodstock documentary, worth a view if you have any interest in the festival and how it came to be. It is also now available on Netflix, too. When I watched it on PBS they were in the middle of one of the endless pledge-drives and it was annoying to have them stop the film every fifteen minutes to ask for money. Last week WXPN in Philadelphia replayed the entire festival in real-time starting each of the sets at the time and date they originally happened.

That's a pretty cool thing to do.
