The Year Our City Was Invaded!! Were You There?

Ozark Music Festival Exhibited Through December 2009! "Seventies Flashback"

This was an invasion of our city that I will never forget! Although I was only 10 years old I can remember that there were more people in our city than I had ever seen in one spot in my life. I was not allowed to play outside for a whole weekend. My dad did take me, my grandad and and uncle for a drive in the peak of this invasion and what we saw was nothing but amazing and very eye opening for this 10 year old. The local McDonalds had paper sacks in the parking lot knee high to an adult man. The streets, store parking and yards were packed full of people just meandering around. I remember that most all of the men had scruffy beards and ladies......well the ladies had more skin than this 10 year old had ever seen in his life!
