Thursday, 8:05 P.M., July 26, 197 40 hours before the music's ex scheduled and the crowds marching Watkins Glen, New York, peak 600,000 . . . already they're ripped c of their heads. Boogie!ll Come on man . . . le party!! l Boogieeeeeeeeeeeee ..... ll The banshee cries continued to ec througi the woods, as the recen arrived stumbled around in the da occupied with the task of setting shelter: Sears and Roebuck ter make-shift lean-tos, orange and wh parachutes stretched between vans a plastic Hefty garbage bags supported sticks and scrounged string for the I fortunate. The novice architects weren't ir boogieing yet. They had just spent fc nerve wracking hours inching their vv along the last five miles to the site Summer Jam, an 1100 acre spread, wh: the Grand Prix is held each year. Athough the hassles getting in wi definitely a bummer, not too many wi complaining. After all, it's not every d one gets an opportunity to hear four hc sets from the Grateful Dead, the Allm Brothers and the Band.

The lowing morning provided a sight nd-blowing to even the most sober ak in attendance, The sooted, clammy at lifted, while the sun's blinding light yloded off the windshields of iusands of vehicles, smothermg nearly 'ry square inch of land in sight.
