Woodstock, 3 days of love, peace, and (good) music.

In August, 1969, an event happend that was so big it changed history forever. And, that event is Woodstock.
Woodstock was the first ever rock festival. Three days of rock from bands like The Who, The Greatful dead, and, The great, Jimi Hendrix!

So much great music, but what was Woodstock really about?
Woodstock was really about people getting together through tough times to enjoy just three days of world peace.

Woodstock will live on forever as the greatest event in rock history.

Guns n Roses, still rockin' hard!!!

In 1987, 5 ordinary teenagers living in L.A decided to form a band called Guns n roses.
Their first tour stunk, but when they went pro, they made a bang on the 1980's glam-metal scene.
They produced 6 studio albums (and 1 live album.) And just when it seemed like it would never end, it ended.
In 1996, front man Axl Rose bought the sole copyright of Guns n roses. Slash left after that. Matt Sorem, the drummer, and bassist, Duff Mckagan left with him and the three of them formed the successful band, Velvet Revolver.
While a reunion might never happen, the g.n.r legacy will live on, because Axl is currently touring with a new Guns n Roses line-up. Rock on G.N.R!!!

Twisted Sister, 27 years later.

They belted out anthems like," we're not gonna take it", and, " I wanna rock.",
Their lead singer had to testify in congress, but twisted sister really is one of the greatest bands of all time.
They started rockin' in 1985, but in 1987, they decided to split.
However, the band recently released a christmas album and went on tour to support it.

When not touring with the rest of the band, Lead singer, Dee snider lives in suburban California raising his two kids.

Twisted Sister will forever be one of the greatest bands EVER !!!!!
