Atlantic City Pop Fest 1969

ATLANTIC CITY POP FEST 1969 - 2009

When Buddy Miles played the Hard Rock Cafe he mentioned the fact that he had played the Atlantic City Pop Fest, which he said made a lasting impression on his life.

He played that night for hours, hours beyond the 2 am time he was supposed to stop, and by the time he had finished, the room was half-empty, but those who were sitting in the back moved up to the front and the back was lined by casino dealers and executives in their suits, listening to the seemingly endless jam that rocked into the early morning hours.
