According to some on the FC list, JD played Woodstock(the one in upstate New York not the one in Oxfordshire).
Does anyone know who he played with? i must admit i never knew, still you live and learn.

Never heard that before and wondering if someone got confused with Bruce Rowland...who did actually play at Woodstock with Joe Cocker?

I've certainly never heard that if it is true - Bruce was definitely always the answer to 'Which member of FC played the Woodstock Festival?' questions when I were a lad...  |

Only way I could see it is if he appeared with one of the bands I have no idea who was in them. Skipping the well known bands, there were the following-Sweetwater, Bert Sommer, Tim Hardin, Melanie, Quill, John Sebastian, Keef Hartley Band. Now a few of those I have heard of, but I have certainly never seen any of them on Jerry's resume, unless he jammed with someone, or might it be possible he was in Incredible Strings Band circle at that point by association and joined them on stage?

Jerry is listed as playing with Keef Hartley, but I don't know if it was in the Woodstock line-up.

grease band, Henry Mc Culloch(sp?), Bruce R, Chris Stainton, Alan Spenner, Neil Hubbard, would be my best guess without looking at the video! I'm off to you tube it now line up as above but no Neil Hubbard |

Having said all that, knowledge is power so it's all good to know |

Having said all that, knowledge is power so it's all good to know Ah the dots....see, just used them again! David is correct, so sorry for the confusion. I was trying to say that Bruce had played at Woodstock for sure with the Grease Band. I don't remember the exact quote but on the Cropredy Box Ashley in his intro for Bruce made a comment about some of the substances from Woodstock still being in Bruce's beard!  |

Was it not The Grease Band's bass player who unloaded fourteen pints and a vindaloo onto Bruce's floor tom?

I think Wally was last spotted at the Penny Concert at Birmingham Town Hall in 1971, in the crowd watching the gloriously demented Demon Fuzz (I kid you not, I was there!!!)  |

Sorry Jim, the question running through my head is. 'why the hell does it matter?' it doesn't matter a jot. The FC board had a remark about Alvin Lee's death and someone looking for a FC connection(they always look for FC connections  ) remarked that the only thing they could think of was that both him(Alvin) and JD played at Woodstock, which was news to me as i would have thought that it would have been fairly common knowledge and i was under the impression that the only FC bod at Max's was Bruce Rowland. |
