What artists at Woodstock 1969 were paid

[Mystic]

Maybe the data listed @ the table are in error, and The Who were paid UK Sterling 6,250? In 1969 that would have come out roughly to USD 12,000. Just a thought.

That's easy and is a point of history for every babyboomer...

Joplin, The Dead, and The Who insisted on payment up front.

That's funny...

I've watched the historical documentary that said that The Who were the only ones that had to be paid up front. So much for that source of information....
