Good one. I like threads like this 'cause I get to listen to songs I would otherwise never encounter. 

Old Rockers Never Die!

They just get fat, forget the words and sing off key.

Not that I'm suggesting MK is anywhere near past it (did he ever sing on key), but that's what Youtube is for :D

It seldom pays to invent. It pays to exploit.

Woodtock is 40 years old today 15 Aug 09.  I was 19 at the time, and had just missed out on Nation Service, a lottery I am glad I lost.  I joined the regular army in 72 but Australia pulled out of Vietnam not long after my first posting to a combat unit.  Back to when I was 19, I was living in a big 5 bedroom house in Canberra, down the road from the Jamison Inn in Macquarie.  I had long, long hair and side burns, and was lean and mean and worked hard and played harder.  The Jamison Inn, Wellington Pub ( No longer there), the Ainslie( was converted to the canberra bus station), and the Dickson pub were the stomping grounds.  There were 3 guys and up to 6 girls living in the house, more after parties.  One of the best periods of my life.

What a great post! Thanks so much for for that. I know every one of those songs like I know my National Anthem. +1 fer'sure! Far out and solid, Bro! 

I hope you partied for me too.   I missed all the big events of 1969 (like the moon landing too). When Woodstock happened I was in Nam ... probably in some sh!t-hole boonies West of Da Nang. I knew the moon landing was going to happed but did not know it was sucessful for a day or two. I knew nothing about Woodstock until weeks later. All-in-all, I'd rather have been at Woodstock.  :angry:

I missed out on nation service for Vietnam which was a lottery in Australia.  Te government drew out a few dates, maybe 4 from each month and if you were 19 and born on those dates you were in and after a few weeks training you were in the mud in nam.

I joined the regular army in 72 but Australia pulled out of Vietnam later that year, but I stayed in for 22 years.

I would not liked to have been in your boots.
