46 years ago today, 400,000 people descended on a farm for the greatest music festival of all time

This August marks the 46th anniversary of the famed Woodstock Music and Art Festival, which took place on Max Yasgur's 600-acre farm in Bethel, New York.

Every notably musician at the time, from Jimi Hendrix to Janis Joplin, played during the three-day fest. The crowd was made up of over 400,000 attendees who forced their way in, despite extremely heavy traffic and fences surrounding the perimeter.

Even with so many fans, zero reports of violence were made to the police during or after the Festival, and with two babies allegedly born on the premises, it certainly was a weekend of peace, love, and music.

Ahead, take a look at those who made it into the music festival's premises and became part of the renowned "Woodstock generation."
