Capturing the Untold Tale of the 1969 Anti-Woodstock Event Through 20 Images

The Altamont Free Concert in December 1969 was meant to be the West Coast version of Woodstock, but instead turned into a night of chaos and tragedy. With a lineup including Santana, Jefferson Airplane, and The Rolling Stones, the event quickly spiraled out of control due to the presence of a violent biker gang as security. The result was four dead and numerous injuries, earning the concert the title of "rock and roll's all-time worst day" by Rolling Stone. From intense performances by Jefferson Airplane to widespread fights breaking out in the crowd, the images captured from that fateful night tell the story of a concert gone terribly wrong.
