Merritt Island, FL – Fred Migliore of FM Odyssey fame will share his view of what happened at Woodstock, why it was important, and what it means to the growing peace-seeking, open-minded culture that is emerging world-wide today. Fred will be speaking at the New Way on Sunday, August 9th.  An optional meditation time begins at 10:30, followed by the talk at 10:50 am until 12:15pm. A limited number of FM Odyssey’s “40th Anniversary of Woodstock” radio program cds will be available.

Fred Migliore

In August 1969, an historic event occurred on a dairy farm near Bethel, New York, when an estimated 500,000 people gathered for three days of peace, love, and rock and roll.  This unlikely happening could have been disastrous given that the  organizers  were totally unprepared for the crowds, the weather was uncooperative at best, and nothing went according to plan.  However, the producers, performers, and multitude of young people collectively decided to make it work, and the Woodstock Nation was born.  That idealism of Woodstock was lost in the materialism of the 80s and 90s, but now it’s time to get back to the garden.

Fred is a friend whose amazing weekly radio show has been a “must listen to” for me since 1991.

After you register, it can take 30 minutes for them to send you an email with your activation code and maybe another 30 minutes after you have activated the account before you can comment.  Please bear with the process – give Fred – and all of us listening – a hand by doing this.  It’s an awesome show and has been consistently every single week for 18 years.  Andrea
