Top Ten Most Memorable Moments Ever
We finish off this year, decade, century, millenium (and for those who say that it's in 2001, too bad, I don't care, and I write this article, not you.) with a look at the most memorable moments in rock history. This doesn't mean necessarily the most influential, or shocking, or even a combination of the two. It just means the moments like the Kennedy assassination when you think back and remember where you were at that time. Concerts, murders, festivals, press conferences and riots are all included here, so it should have a bit of variety.

An Accidental Hippie Returns to Woodstock
More than 30 years ago, three friends and I walked into a vast, muddy alfalfa field where we joined 450,000 others to experience firsthand the phenomenon now known simply as “Woodstock.” The event became the icon of an era and of a generation. But, at the time, it was simply a disorganized happening wrapped in music and, for many, marinated with drugs. Back then, I had no clear idea why I was there. But, like many others, I was eventually drawn back to where it all happened.
