Carlos Santana, lead guitarist for Santana, the afternoon’s first band, watched the fighting breaking out in front of him during Santana’s set.

By the time the Rolling Stones took the stage in the early evening, the mood had taken a decidedly ugly turn as numerous fights had erupted between Angels and crowd members and within the crowd itself. The name of the game is money, power and ego, and money is first and it brings power. The Stones didn’t do it for free, they did it for money, only the tab was paid in a different way. Whoever goes to see that movie paid for the Altamont religious assembly. It was a long . . . long barrel, really long. Looked like a six shooter or something . . . I’ve never seen . . . it was really . . . like the barrel was about six inches or so . . .

Jagger was very, very shattered,” according to an associate who was with the Stones post-Altamont. “I cannot overemphasize how depressed and down he was with the way it turned out. They’d like to just be able to blink and make it go away. When they knew about the murder — it shook them.”

Love in Vain.” Jagger again urges the crowd to sit down. They do, as he watches. “Now, boys and girls, are you sitting comfortably? When we get to the end and we all want to go absolutely crazy and jump on each other, well, then we’ll stand up again. I mean, we can’t seem to keep together standing up.” The land itself is ok,” Haley, “It’s mostly just debris. There must be a million Red Mountain bottles here, and about half of them are broken. Spirits are really good; we’re doing it because we want to. There’s pretty good vibrations here while we’re working, but it gets pretty cold at night.” They planned to clean the land of the neighboring ranchers when they finished around the speedway, “if the ranchers will let us.” Fat chance the ranchers will let them. They’re pretty leery about longhairs these days. Remember what happened to Sharon Tate. One local rancher went so far as to quite seriously and quite openly propose genocide as the solution to the whole concert problem. Try to tell that man you want to mend his fence. Neighboring ranchers are preparing to file suit for what they say is extensive damage to their property. They claim fences were torn down for firewood, water lines were broken, cattle lost, and they and their families threatened. Osgerby, Bill (2005).

[23] In the documentary Gimme Shelter, Sonny Barger states that the Hells Angels were not interested in policing the event, and that organizers had told him that the Angels would be required to do little more than sit on the edge of the stage, drink beer, and make sure there were not any murders or rapes occurring. No one has offered even the slightest condolences to the family. No one even told the family their son was dead. They found out when a friend called the family at 2:30 Sunday morning. Gwen then called the Livermore hospital, the Alameda County Sheriffs Department at Santa Rita and several other locations before she was able to determine that her brother was at the morgue in Oakland. At 8 that morning, she left to identify the body. The Angels were together and the people weren’t together — they didn’t have time to get together, you know? If they had wanted to get rid of the Angels, honorably, they could have taken up another collection and laid another five hundred dollars on them to split, which they would have done, man.” Why Saturday’s episode? I suspect it is because, just as their parents 25 years ago thought America was full of Comanches scalping stagecoach riders and Capone gangsters shooting passers-by on Chicago streets, Jagger and Cutler think San Francisco is the Hell’s Angels and the Pranksters since those are the ones who went to London last year and first broached the idea of the Stones playing free here.

It is authoritatively reported (by an intimate of the higher echelons of the Sherrif’s department) that there were four, possibly five, plainclothesmen from the department near the stage, close to the action, on duty — which means that they were carrying their firearms. Their exact instructions are unknown, but, generally, it is a law enforcement officer’s duty to stop any crime he sees being committed, especially murder. (In fairness, it is not certain they were present during the Hunter murder.) They’re crazy. At this point, the best thing we can do is pray for rain, or hope that bands will refuse to play, as David Crosby has said Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young have promised to do. The promoters have so many dollar signs in their eyes they can’t see that size alone does not a festival make. It’s impossible to say what sheriff’s investigators will come up with. They stopped listening ( Rolling Stone learns) when one eyewitness said he wasn’t sure he could positively identify the killers. The question summoned forth Belli’s most contemptuous voice. “I think,” he declared, “that you’re over your head in a legal story like this, when you’re asking whether there’s going to be recompense for the man that died when it hasn’t been established whether he was at fault.” Midnight Rambler,” comes next, and, oooh, it is funky; but too late. The damage has been done. It’s later and later by the minute. Many are leaving.Inside History of the Grateful Dead by Dennis McNally - Broadway (August 12, 2003) ISBN 0-7679-1186-5 At first — before people settled in on the rolling pasture land — there was a nice kind of communal spirit on the hike. At least half the crowd was from the San Francisco Bay Area, but lots of them had come from afar. There was one red-headed longhair in Bermuda shorts who’d driven up in three and a half days from Florida. People from Denver, Los Angeles, Orange County (“everybody we know is coming up,” says one VW busload full), San Diego, Seattle, Vancouver, even New York and Pennsylvania. The attorney for the Stones (and friends), Melvin Belli, was handling all his legal arrangements, he said.
