Internet, if you"re fond of peace, love and flared trousers or at least if you were back in the 1960s you may recognise the rather eclectic-looking VW Camper above. That"s because this is an exact replica of the Light Bus, which appeared at the very first Woodstock Art and Music festival back in 1969 and is now back, ready to spread a little bit more of that love in modern-day America. The original Woodstock festival arrived at the end of a decade characterised by fights for greater social equality and quickly became symbolic of the anti-establishment counterculture of the time.
