History

Historical Context

The Altamont Free Concert, held on December 6, 1969, drew over 300,000 attendees and ended in chaos, including the fatal stabbing of Meredith Hunter by Hells Angels security. This event starkly contrasted with the peaceful Woodstock Festival earlier that year, symbolizing the decline of the 1960s counterculture and raising ongoing concerns about safety at live performances, as seen in Jamie Foxx's recent intervention at SKVLK Fest.
