On this day in 1969 the '60's ended. The Altamont Speedway Free Concert. The Hells Angels were hired as security by the management of the Rolling Stones, on the recommendation of the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane (who both had previously used the Angels for security at performances without incident), for $500 worth of beer. The violence resulted in the murder of Meredith Hunter, while one person was struck by a vehicle and another drown in an irrigation canal.
Recommended viewing "Gimme Shelter" the 1970 film by Albert and David Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin chronicling the last week of the Stones' tour.

#Doug McKechnie sunrise set Altamont 1969
https://youtu.be/0rConeeD1AIFrom the comments
Q "Doug, did you do another set later in the day?"DM "I tried but Owsley freaked out at the board and cut me off. He could see his needles moving with the low frequency wave form, but he couldn’t hear anything, and it freaked him out. That’s my best guess. He was isolated three stories up in the scaffolding in the middle of the crowd, and knowing the Bear he was probably on acid."

Hay hechos de la historia que marcan el fin de una era. El festival gratuito de #Altamont, llevado adelante el 6 de diciembre de 1969 en un autódromo abandonado al norte de California, significó el comienzo del ocaso del sueño hippie. Y quienes se llevaron toda la atención no fue ninguna de las bandas que dijeron presente allí sino los Hell´s Angels, un grupo de motociclistas que habían sido contratados para seguridad y se excedieron en sus atribuciones. Lo cierto, es que el recital ya desde un principio, se mostró con deficiencias de logística por la cercanía entre el anuncio y la fecha en que se iba a llevar adelante. El día del concierto fue un verdadero infierno, las 300.000 personas que se acercaron a disfrutar fueron testigos de escenas de vandalismo durante toda la jornada aunque lo peor se vivió mientras estaban en el escenario los #RollingStones, cuando los encargados de la protección asesinaron de 5 puñalazos a Meredith Hunter un joven negro con el que habían tenido un encontronazo y empuñaba un arma de fuego.
