If they'd left it where it was, it would be fine. No one at woodstock saw things more accurately than anyone else. In fact given the drug intake, I'd suspect they had less of an awareness.
No doubt. Many that were there don't really remember it. Having spoken to a few people that were adults in the '60s, I get the impression that they were just watching all these things happen. The whole era seems to have taken on a meaning that it did not have while it was going on. It just was. The music is still here.
