Isle of Wright, The Who

Handel's inaugural London performance of The Messiah

1. Maria Callas in anything.

But preferably "Medea" or "Norma."

[Moondog]

2. I know it's not exactly the same, but

Sirius / XM is running a Woodstock extravaganza now through Sunday night of live tracks from Woodstock on Channel 16. I've had it on for hours. Too much talk, particularly for satellite radio, but it's pretty good ....

4. cool

I'm watching a special on VH1 on the behind the scenes at Woodstock

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. The first performance of Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring."

It started a riot. :D
