Woodstock Festival Photos from 1969: From Eccentric Spectators to Spellbinding Performances from Iconic Singers

Janis Joplin Shows Off her Moves

This image demonstrates Janis Joplin taking pleasure in the results of her pre-performance preparations. And, well, it was Woodstock, so we’re not going to pass judgment. And everyone was indulging, from audience members to performers. Naturally, she sang the popular tune “Ball and Chain.”

However, this is a great chance to argue against the use of photos because they frequently don’t give the entire story. Joplin is now prancing for the crowd and appears to be having a great time. In actuality, she was probably just glad to be taking a break from singing while Snooky Flowers, a member of her band, handled the microphone.
