Woodstock and the counterculture revolution of the 1960s and 1970s was one the most significant movements of the 20th century by any measure.

As for inaugurals, I attended Obama's in 2009, both Clinton-Gore affairs, and several governors' inaugurals over the years and more, they're very special and important political events. Complete with mishaps which people expect and overcome in order to get the most out of public events on that level. Standard.
