Truth!
The two men were contacted by Artie Kornfeld and Michael Lang who initially proposed the idea of having a retreat-like recording studio in Woodstock but the idea soon morphed into an event that organizers expected would be attended by 50 000 people... 500 000 showed up.
Now comes your last chance for hippie redemption!
Fact One- Immediately after the event was planned for an industrial park near Wallkill, New York the town of Wallkill passed an ordinance requiring any gathering above 5000 people to require a permitting. Then they immediately denied the organizers the permit
Or! Fact 2!
In the field where Woodstock took place now stands 5 life-sized statues of Janis Joplin, Jerry Garcia, Joe Cocker, Jimi Hendrix and Arlo Guthrie.
