Dagens citat – John Sebastian på Woodstock 1969
17. august 2014“I went to Woodstock as a member of the audience. I did not show up there with a road manager and a couple of guitars. I showed up with a change of clothes and a toothbrush. It just so happened that because most of my friends were musicians I ended up backstage. There was a moment when the stage had filled up with water and it was impossible to put electric instruments onstage. At that time Chip Monck (Woodstock announcer, stage co-ordination) said to me ‘Look, we need somebody who can go out there with an acoustic guitar and hold ’em (the audience) while we go out and sweep the water off the stage and let it dry up and you’re elected.’ So, I had to run and borrow a guitar from Timmy Hardin and go on. But, it was not anything I had planned for. It was just one of those nice accidents and it resulted in my career then taking another step forward.â€
