Fire Dept. cooling down the crowd at the 2nd Atlanta Pop Festival, 1970

“We parked the car in the orchards. I really can't remember what kind of orchards. But, from the others who have written, I assume they were pecan orchards. What I mainly remember is that it was HOT. It was really really hot. Did I mention how hot it was? Well it was. It was really hot. Firetrucks had to be brought in just to hose down the crowd to make sure that people didn't die from the heat. And what I also remember is that I walked around barefoot the whole time.” … Gary R. from Knoxville, TN
