Members Mudbass Posted June 10, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 10, 2007 It was called Hard Rock, not Heavy Metal, youngster. Actually at the time it was called Acid Rock. Hard rock wasn't a term that would exist for many years yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SB900LE Posted June 10, 2007 Members Share Posted June 10, 2007 Did you catch some of those comments under the video? This one's worth noting: "maxbignus04 (6 days ago) This segment was shot in the summer of '68. The Who performed it at Woodstock in Aug. '69. -Just settin' the 'ol time record straight. : ) Their manager at the time said that they could "Make cottage cheese out of the air in the first fifty rows". THAT'S Loud.. I have an old European live pic (circa Vincibus Eruptum) stowed away somewhere where they used 8 100W Marshall guitar & bass stacks PER SIDE! *whew*" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In their day they were the loudest band in the universe. The last place you wanted to be was in the first 50 rows unless you were stoned out of your skull, but back in the 60's there was no shortage of volunteers.
