Default Big Sur Concert .... (1969)

Did you ever wonder how all those people found festival concerts to go to, way before anybody even imagined access to internet or social media?

I've always been super curious about how things like that came to pass.

I'm guessing AM radio stations played a major role in getting the word out and stores where records were sold.

Seems like ages ago.... but I found this vintage video recording of a festival down in Big Sur, California. Check out the massive lines of cars lining the road and people walking to the destination where they could hear Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Jonie Mitchell and Joan Baez and singers from back in the day. It's a pretty sweet video recording of the concert held down at Big Sur, way back in 1969.
