The Rolling Stones, Santana, Jefferson Airplane, The Flying Burrito Brothers And Crosby, Stills & Nash all played at the Altamont free concert. The Grateful Dead were scheduled to play but cancelled shortly before their appearance because of the violence because the Hell's Angels allegedly were hired by the Stones for security.

Was Altamont more peaceful than Woodstock?

Altamont was not more peaceful than Woodstock; in fact, it is often remembered for its violence and chaos. The 1969 concert, intended as a free festival, ended in tragedy with several incidents, including the stabbing death of a concertgoer by the Hell's Angels, who were hired for security. In contrast, Woodstock is celebrated for its spirit of peace and community, despite facing challenges like rain and overcrowding. Overall, Woodstock is viewed as a symbol of the counterculture movement, while Altamont is seen as a turning point marking the end of that era's idealism.
