This top T-shirt is from Woodstock. Worn by contruction
workers. This T-shirt is apparently from Woodstock and worn by the security team. (The TM (trademark) makes me wonder if its legit). It sold at auction for $717 in February 2011 This is a stage-worn T-shirt worn by Graham Nash of Crosby Stills and Nash fame. (not actually worn at Woodstock I might add) |

The Woodstock Music and Art Fair
--------------------------------
Although
officially listed as a three day event and tickets sold appropriately,
it was in fact held over four days, from 5.07pm on Friday August 15th
1969 until 10.30am on Monday August 18th 1969.
The above set listings is as
accurate as I can possibly get it with each artist assigned to the
logical (or as logical as makes sense) dating. I have arranged each
artist into the day they actually started playing. So, any artist that began playing at midnight or after
has been assigned to the following days set listing, with the exception
of Joan Baez, who started performing at 1:00am on Saturday morning but was the last act for 11 hours.
You will notice that in the official set listings (below) Joe Cocker
began day three. However if you look at my set listing (above),
Jefferson Airplane and a few other artists played the same day but in the morning rather than the afternoon, where's the logic?

Some artists namely: Ravi
Shankar, Santana, Mountain, Grateful Dead, Creedance Clearwater
Revival, Janis Joplin, Sly & the Family Stone, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Johnny Winter, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and Jimi Hendrix are known
to be complete sets. The other artists sets are more than likely
complete but not guaranteed as such.
