Woodstock is sometimes thought of as as the defining event for the Baby Boomer generation. To what extent did you young people outside of the Northeast know about Woodstock, and what did they think about it? Why is it thought of as being a unique and important event?

A comment rather than direct answer, but in July 1969, around half a millon people or more gathered around cape Canaveral for the Appollo space launch. This was more than attended Woodstock a month later. The Canaveral gathering was a huge event but is not mentioned as much as woodstock.
