Woodstock '69 and Woodstock '99 were the same in name only; in reality, they couldn't have been more different.

The original Woodstock is currently celebrating its 53rd anniversary, while the new Netflix documentary Trainwreck: Woodstock '99 was recently made available for streaming. This made me want to do a little comparison of the two.

I wanted to know: if Joe Schmoe Concertgoer took a time machine directly from Woodstock '69 in the fields of Bethel to Woodstock '99 on the asphalt of Griffiss, three decades apart, what would've been the most glaring differences?

Here are just a few:

PRICE OF ATTENDANCE

1969: $6.50 for one day, $18 advance for all three days.

1999: $150 plus service charges

We would be here all day if we wrote about everything that was different about the two Woodstocks, but why not let the pictures do the talking? Below are some side-by-side photo comparisons of Woodstock '69 and Woodstock '99:
