We’re All Connected
You might think of hippies as dropouts from society who could care less about what happens in the world they abandoned. This photograph shows otherwise, as it’s clear that the pair here grabbing a copy of the Evening Standard (something you wouldn’t expect to find at Woodstock, either) were invested in world news. In a world as volatile as the one in the mid-20th century, where any crazy new development could occur, it comes as no surprise if even Woodstock attendees wanted to keep abreast of the news.
A Bubbly Personality
You might not have blown bubbles since you were a child, but this was the sort of activity which hippies adored. You must remember that Woodstock took place more than fifty years ago, before anything even close to the electronic wonderlands of events like Tomorrowland had come to be. Speaking of bubbles, the original Woodstock venue is currently held within historic site preservation, and in 2017 it was added into the National Register of the Historic Places.
