Hells Angels

    The Angels were a fixture of every major festival from 1969-71 after the London Angels were deputized by Mr Jagger to look after security at the Hyde Park concert. However, at Hollywood the lads seemed to have kept a pretty low profile. No reports of their activities, adverse or otherwise , have come to our ears at this point in time .

This photo of the Angels with their machines was sent by Roy Collingwood , click on the image to see a large version .


If you were there, we want your memories, please, please, write them up before they completely fade away ! gwshark@senet.com.au

Many thanks go to Garry Marsh for his fantastic archival material which has enabled us to construct most of the site. Also to Martin Williams for his oral history and colour photo of the stage and site ,Simon Phillips for all the Grateful Dead archival material and Bob Colover for the film footage .

    We have been endeavoring to collect audience or sbd tapes of the performances at this festival , so we can effectively review the performances, provide set lists and band line-ups. The intention is to also display as many personal histories of the festival as possible.

  If you can contribute in any way, with tapes, reviews from the music press, photos or personal histories, please Contact us.
