It just seemed The Incredible String Band found themselves completely out of sync with the Woodstock crowd’s mood for heavier rock. Firstly, they played on Saturday evening right after Santana and Keef Hartley Band — difficult acts to follow. Despite their pleasant sound, it was a quieter acoustic set in a festival that demanded a faster pace. Scheduled for a Friday performance, they delayed to Saturday due to rain, perhaps missing a potentially more receptive audience.
