It's no coincidence the Dead's performance (except for a shot of Jerry smoking a joint) isn't in there; it's pretty legendary that they were terrible at Woodstock. Not helped, of course, by the fact that the storm picked up as they got on stage, the big sheet behind the stage was acting like a sail and pulling the stage through the mud like a boat, plus every time Bob got close to the mic he would nearly get electrocuted.
You a Jay Mascis fan? Seems like he's widely regarded as one of the guitar guys who was never appreciated as much as he deserved. I was having an early 90s nostalgia moment and I put an old Dinosaur Jr. Album on my ipod... at the time I didn't appreciate the technical aspects of musicianship. I have a lot of musicians in my family and my kids are showing some aptitude for it, though, so I'm developing more of an appreciation for it from that angle. I can't play at all.
