FORTY NINE YEARS AGO ‘THE ALTAMONT’ TOOK PLACE.
THE FREE CONCERT WAS THE BRAINCHILD OF THE ROLLING STONES AND IT
WAS SUPPOSED TO PUT A WRAP ON THE ROLLING STONES 1969 US TOUR.
A LARGELY IMPROVISED AFFAIR, 300,000 PEOPLE ATTENDED, AND THE HELLS ANGELS HANDLED SECURITY FOR 500 BUCKS IN BEER. WHAT COULD GO WRONG ?
FOUR DEATHS, SCORES INJURED, AND EXTENSIVE PROPERTY DAMAGE.
ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE CALLED IT “ROCK AND ROLL’S WORST DAY”
HERE IS COMPELLING VIDEO OF THE CONCERT AT ALTAMONT
