8/28/69 issue has some interesting letters to the editor from several Woodstock attendees.

9/4/69 "Scenes" speculates on a possible Woodstock II in 1970.

10/2/69 "Scenes" discusses the legal disputes between the partners in Woodstock Ventures.

10/23/69 "Scenes" on disgruntled White Lake-area residents.

12/11, 12/18, and 12/25/69 issues all have Altamont coverage.



Footage/audio from many of these fests is up on YT, particularly the Texas Pop Fest.
