"My band played at the very first (Berkshire Mountains)
festival in 1976. I recall us being first on stage for the Gospel Show that
Sunday morning, and due to rain the previous night, the sound system could not be used. We did our whole set acoustically, asking the audience to hunker around the stage so they could hear the music as God intended -- pure and un-amplified."
