WOODSTOCK REDUX

Modified Aug 17,2010
WOODSTOCK I in 1969 with 200,000 attendance closed today in West Bethel,New York,close to Woodstock.It was "3 days of peace and music" with plenty of rock'n'roll,peace,love,etc...
WOODSTOCK II organized the 25th anniversary in Saugerties,New York,in 1994.
The 40th anniversary also was celebrated in 2009,for that occasion I wrote this note and posted  in my english blog.

TICKET SALE,ON LINE
 MY GOOD NEIGHBOR LARRY KING APPEARED AT THE DOOR ,WHILE DANCING AND SINGING "IT'S IMPOSSIBLE."

HE INFORMED ME OF WOODSTOCK EXTRAVAGANZA AND SAID IT IS ONLY A WALKING DISTANCE FROM ,ONLY 100 MILES.I WENT BACK IN TO BRING MY LITTLE ENGLISH DICTIONARY ,TO BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING TO HIM.IT WAS 40 YEARS AGO THESE DAYS AND I HAD TO TELL LARRY THAT I JUST ARRIVED HERE SEVEN WEEKS AGO ,WITH ELVIS AND BEATLES CAREFULLY SARDINED IN MY SUITCASE,PASSED THROUGH EUROPE(PRE-UNION) AND J.F.K.AIRPORT.I AM AT THE BEGINNING OF MY EDUCTIONAL POSITION.I AM "S.E.R."IN BETWEEN MEETINGS,CONFERENCES,NIGHT DUTIES AND RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE STEPS,DAYS AND NIGHTS.THEN I HAD TO EXPLAIN WHAT S.E.R. WAS:SLEEPING,EATING.READING WHILE NOT AT WORK.MY DAUGHTER WAS BORN ONLY A MONTH BEFORE AND STILL A LITTLE BABY AND MOM'S STILL RECUPERATING.I AM NOT DECORATED BY BEARD ,MOUSTACHE ,PONY TAIL,AND DON'T DRIVE A FOLKS WAGON,A.K.A. FA VE.NEAL JUST RETURNED FROM THE MOON AND MOHAMMAD ALI IS RETURNING TO THE RINK FOR ANOTHER FIGHT IN MAD SQUARE GARDEN OR IN ZAIRE.AND ALTHOUGH THIS IS A GREEN MUSIC IN PEACE,I NEED MORE OF HENRY MANCINI'S MUSIC NOW AND ANDY WILLIAMS. WHO NEEDS BOB DYLAN AND NAKED MUDDY MUSICIANS?
SO I MISSED IT AND I DID NOT JOIN THOSE HALF MILLION PEOPLE TO SING " WE SHALL OVERCOME " WITH JOAN BAEZ,AND AND I MISSED THE JOINT AND THE GOOD PARTY TIME IN ALFALAFA FARM. STILL EVERYTIME I TRAVEL DOWN SOUTH ON ROUTE 81 WITH ALL THOSE FEROCIOUSLY BIG FAT OR FRIENDLY TRUCKS ,AND PASS BY WOODSTOCK,VRGINIA AND ITS AWSOME WATER TOWER ,IT REMINDS ME OF LARRY KING'S FACE THAT DAY,WHO GAVE UP RELUCTANTLY WHEN LISTENED TO ALL MY EXCUSES 40 YEARS BACK.
NOW I AM WAITING FOR WOODSTOCK REDUX TO COME.
I KNOW TICKETS ARE GOING TO BE OVERPRICED AT THE GATE.

SO I START PERFORMING IN ANOTHER
WOODSTOCKMANIA ,WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM

BOB DYLAN OF 60'S .
(matinee performance)

IT AIN'T ME BABY

I MISSED IT AND I AM SORRY

IT AIN'T ALLEN GINSBURG

OR JAMES DEAN.

WHERE WAS WOODY ALLEN THAT DAY?

WHERE DID JOHNNY CASH CHANGE CLOTHES?

WHEN IT AIN'T ME BABY.

I FEEL BAD AND I AM SORRY

IT AIN'T ME BABY

WHO'S INVITING YOU TO MUDSLIDE?

IT AIN'T ME BABY

WHO'S TAKING YOU AROUND TO A RIDE.

IT AIN'T ME BABY.
