The two-day outdoor and indoor festival, hosted by The Winery at St. George in Mohegan Lake, was held on the same dates -- Aug. 15-16 -- as the legendary arts and music festival that drew a reported half-million young people in 1969 to the tiny town of White Lake, New York, to see an all-star lineup of the day's most popular rock stars.

If the Orange County couple's names aren't familiar, as one fan among many fawning over them at the festival told the pair, "I feel like I've known you my whole life. I'm choking up." That's because they are the iconic young couple pictured on the cover of the Woodstock record album that was released in 1970. As such, they have come to personify The Woodstock Generation for the past 46 years.
