I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, “Where are you going?”
And this he told me:
“I’m going on down to Yasgur’s farm;
I’m gonna join in a rock ‘n’ roll band...”
Joni Mitchell, “Woodstock”
“It’s incredible! I heard the New York Freeway’s closed. [...] Isn’t that far out?” Arlo Guthrie
Though the New York State Thruway wasn’t actually closed, the roads surrounding Bethel, New York became gridlocked for almost 20 miles in mid-August 1969 as people arrived for the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair. The festival, which began on Friday, August 15, drew an estimated 400,000 to 500,000 attendees—vastly more than the crowd of 50,000 that the organizers had anticipated. Many of them simply left their vehicles on the clogged rural roads and walked the rest of the way.
