 * Interviewing Patrick Lancaster (Victoria's grandpa)**

After interviewing Victoria's grandpa, we have a clear understanding on what it was like to live as a music fan in the 1960s. We realized that you did not have to necessarily be a hippie to love music and be involved in the music world. We also learned that the Beatles were not the only group praised for their musicianship at the time. For example, Bob Dylan had a large impact on music. Finally, it was interesting to hear his reaction to the question concerning Woodstock. He responded with three words- "peace, love, and music."

The overall impact and legacy of music at this time was incredible. Without this music, we would not be where we are today artisticly. He said the music of the time reflected the views and stories of change and the younger generation. Although we weren't there, this really gave us a better view into the past, and music in the 1960s.
