I was at Woodstock '94 with Ziggy Owczarzak and his wife Tina. We lost Tina in that five hour line through the mud to the buses Sunday night. Someone kept saying that Nick Drake was going to close the show. He was coming in by chopper. "Drake is dead," scofffed Ziggy. Tina ignored him, sulked, and smoked from an antler. The line was so long a couple got married and then divorced before reaching the big sewage tank by the temporary cemetery. There was despondent talk that the line lead nowhere; it was cyclical. At dusk a police helicopter flew over spattering us with mud and debris. "It's Drake!" shouted Tina. She crowd surfed back toward the stages and we never saw her again. She still might be there. I might go look. She has the keys to my van.
