Made it to Bethel, NY, where Woodstock actually happened

[cultureconnoisseurs]

On August the 15 1969, the Woodstock Music & Art Fair took place on a dairy farm in Bethel, NY. Over half a million people came to a 600-acre farm to hear 32 acts (leading and emerging performers of the time) play over the course of four days (August 15-18). Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, the Grateful Dead, the Who, Janis Joplin and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were among the line-up. Woodstock is known as one of the greatest happenings of all time and –perhaps- the most pivotal moment in music history.

Joni Mitchell said, “Woodstock was a spark of beauty” where half-a-million kids “saw that they were part of a greater organism.” According to Michael Lang, one of four young men who formed Woodstock Ventures to produce the festival, “That’s what means the most to me – the connection to one another felt by all of us who worked on the festival, all those who came to it, and the millions who couldn’t be there but were touched by it.”

By Wednesday, August 13, some 60,000 people had already arrived and set up camp. On Friday, the roads were so clogged with cars that performing artists had to arrive by helicopter. Though over 100,000 tickets were sold prior to the festival weekend, they became unnecessary as swarms of people descended on the concert grounds to take part in this historic and peaceful happening. Four days of music… half a million people… rain, and the rest is history.

what do you think of bethel

Bethel is yet another example of the beauty of western Connecticut. driving across the CT/NY border is probably one of my favorite things in the world because of the landscape and Bethel is right in the middle of that.

The heart of Bethel, NY

So, now that Phish has utterly exhausted me, I’m doing three weeks of no concerts. Then, I’m off to Bethel, NY to see them again on Saturday, August 10. Anyone in or around the Bethel area? Tis over a four-hour drive from here (which means 5+ hours, because I drive chill, and I make stops), so I might head there the day prior. Some drinks and some fun hanging out time would be swell with one of y’all.  Hit me up if you are somewhere along my flightpath and care to hang out. Have Phish, will travel.

Classic rock fans anyone?? Has anyone here ever been to Bethel, either for a concert, or to be where Woodstock was? I’ll be getting there early enough to walk around where the stage was, and see whatever there is to see there. Then, I can begin the loooong afternoon of Phish tailgating, and even longer evening of Phishing. Gone Phishing.....

To celebrate 35 years of a sneaker icon, Concepts drops their second Air Max 1 in festival fashion. In August of 1969, almost half a million festival goers made a trip to Bethel, NY and sent a message to the universe. They were dressed in the eclectic fashions of the time: faded denim, surplus fatigues (including M-65s and tiger camo), corduroy, and decorated with peaceful protest motifs. Jackets carried fringes, hair was decorated with flowers. The event concluded as a lasting symbol of ’60s counterculture. With the Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 SP “Heavy,” we link the legacy of that August weekend to a lineage of radical youth expression. While the material mix is similar to the “Mellow,” its heavier. We’ve got denim, tiger camo and leather, and these three materials juxtapose with the softness of wide wale corduroy at the collar. The “Heavy” also includes patterned elements of bandanna, cowhide, and woven material panels. The former, a Concepts-exclusive, approximates the famous guitar straps employed by festival performers.

Dec. 24 2014

The only person who didn't really shun me when i was studying to be a JW. She wasn't perfect but she was real and like me in alot of ways...

I had talked to her a month ago before she passed. My little sister pulled me aside one day... and my mom recognized her house on the news but she was probably afraid to tell me, so my sister told me.

Everybody in the world that I knew shunned me because I stopped celebrating holidays... despite me still being the same person they knew.

My sister tried telling me and my mind went blank and I was trying to convince myself that it wasn't her and tried to convince myself that there was a mixup.

I was like a plague to them. And I relived that feeling in 2022 when I left and had to block everyone I loved and leave instantly. People I loved went after me... and I don't hate them... they were just doing what they knew. But it was painful because the elders questioned me... asking me if I was an enemy of Jehovah. And I balled my eyes out and told them I was there to warn them. And that Jehovah wasn't happy with them and he was coming to judge them.

One of the elders that was in my committee was like a dad (Daryl Walker)to me... and he too went after me trying to disfellowship me... but I know he KNEW I married Daniel to try not sin again. And it was so incredibly upsetting that they knew my heart and didn't believe me.

In 2018, I had my committee comprised of Daryl Walker, Zane McNair, and Beau Sutton. I had sex with a brother named Joseph Synakowski... when I told Joshua Obadiah, he told me to tell the elders or he was going to... so I went to them... and I hated the fact that I told on Joseph and betrayed his trust... but he wasn't mad at me.... but I only got reproved and he got DFed. I was reproved for only six months. I went to NY Bethel by myself despite people saying it reckless to travel on my own. At the time I really loved the org and believed them.... so I went there and had a great time and afterwards I didn't want to sin again. I would see daniel off and on to have sex... because it helped me to cope with everything happening in my life.

So I figured Daniel would marry me since we had already talked about it before and I felt like I could trust him... and I figured I could bring him back to jehovah. That was in March of 2019.

I've begged him to do bible stuff with me... and sometimes he will.... but I can tell it's only because he knows I love God and he does it moreso for me... but he doesn't love Jehovah the same way. It seems like he's falling for all this fallen angel stuff that's coming out... he sees the physical... and doesn't trust Jehovah despite everything....

So if he wants to go into darkness spiritually... I can't and won't follow him into that.

Also... I didn't really invite anyone to our wedding in 2019 because I didn't want to be a stumbling or be showy. And honestly I don't care for showy things or peoples opinions like that... just the people I care about. I didn't want to give anyone a reason to have anything to say. At the time, those elders were some of the only people who put the puzzle pieces together on why I did what I did....

And still, they went after me and tried to DF me. They weren't able to do that though, as much as they wanted to.

I told them the euphrates river was drying up. Their were rivers turning to blood. There were only a couple YouTube videos of it up back then and before all the churches were talking about it. I studied prophecies while I was a JW. The organization calls themselves a watchtower but has no regard for prophecy or gifts of the spirit that the biblical Christians did. A WATCHTOWER WARNS AND IF THEY DON'T, BLOOD IS ON THEIR HANDS.

Before they had a slew of court cases against them like they do now, all I knew of as a JW was the Australian royal commission at the time. I didn't agree with it, and I knew it was true and didn't brush it off as a lie like most JWs... even as an active JW. I just figured... the org was imperfect and Jehovah would take care of it. But when I found out about the man-made doctrines like 1914... the false predictions... I figured they were being led by false prophets and was mad at them slandering jehovahs name.

Prophets don't always see things but Jehovah makes their words happen. And the fact that they demanded respect despite falsely prophesying told me everything I needed to know.
