Jerry Garcia – Grateful Dead

One of the band members of the Grateful Dead, Jerry Garcia, is seen posing in this photo before his performance on stage. Their chance to perform would not come without its caveats, however. They were featured in a lineup consisting of 32 other famous bands and musicians.

The bad weather made the stage equipment malfunction, the management faced sound and lighting issues, and the other performers delayed their acts. The band is known for its ingenious blues improvisations and psychedelic roots; the crowd at Woodstock was excited for their time on stage. They still delivered a lengthy performance and got an ovation from the fans.
