Taking Woodstock Page #4
here, not just the alfalfa fields.
Now, wait a second.
I mean, I could...
I mean, I could buy a farm for the
kind of money you're asking for.
I could buy five farms.
From what I read in
the papers, Mr. Roberts,
million dollars in Wallkill,
and you've only got until
the 15th until your festival.
Now, I'm sure a wealthy
young man such as yourself
could, indeed,
buy a lot of farms.
But that's neither here nor
there. All I'm saying is...
Yeah, all you're saying is that
you've got us over a barrel.
Well, if I didn't, you wouldn't
be on your second carton
of chocolate milk
now, would you?
But I tell you this, fellas, when
you make a deal with me, it's a deal.
Okay? So long as you promise
to put things back in order,
I'll stand by you 100/.
These people
are my neighbors,
and I know how
to deal with them.
I won't let them run you off
like they did in Wallkill,
'cause this is my land,
and let's just see them try.
Wow, Max, that is very
cool. And you're right.
We're going to
have a lot of people
come here and
enjoy your place.
Michael, if I may, I wouldn't
describe $75,000 as cool.
$5,000 is cool.
Hey, it's your bread, guys.
I'm just trying to put you
together here with Max's vision.
Right. Look, Max, if we were
willing to consider doing this,
let us make it work.
Mike, listen, really, if this
doesn't shake out with Max...
I'm sure we're
gonna be fine.
John and Joel and Max, they're
all gonna come together.
I can feel it.
Good vibes.
He won't let them near it.
Smithson? Who's Smithson?
I don't own the property down
there. You don't own the property?
I own this
and I own that,
which reminds me, I'm sure you'll
be willing to put up a bond,
just in case there's damage.
I was thinking $75,000.
F***!
A $75,000 bond, too?
Can I ask you a question? Please.
Is Mike for real?
I mean, he's so relaxed.
Michael, yeah,
he's totally real,
so long as
the cash is real.
And the cash is real so long
as John and Joel are real.
And I guess John and Joel
are gonna stay real because,
between us, they've already
sold 100,000 tickets.
And who wants 100,000 freaks
coming after them for refunds?
So Mikey is trying
to sell those six acres.
It's got a lake?
Yeah.
Hey, Dave.
I'll have the usual.
Geez, sorry, Elliot. I
think we're out of the usual.
Out of the usual?
Wow, that's unusual.
For crying out loud, Elliot.
How could you?
Okay, then I'll try
the waffles.
"To ensure three days of peace
and music, we've left Wallkill
"and are now in
White Lake, New York.
"Certain people of Wallkill decided
to try to run us out of town.
"Our new site, it's twice the
size of our original site. "
You did this, Teichberg.
You know what those hippies
are gonna do to our town?
They'll be high on drugs.
Robbing us by day and
raping the cattle at night.
We ought to run you Jews
out of town. You and Yasgur.
milk. Shut the hotel down, too.
Get out of here, you hippie.
You're disgusting, Elliot.
You know what, Elliot?
You're not the only...
Elliot! God bless you.
Hi, Annie.
You can't imagine
what happened this morning.
What? I'm fully booked! Every room!
Yeah, me, too.
For the first time
since Herb died.
Thank you, Elliot.
You're welcome.
Thank you, Elliot.
Hi.
Those motherfuckers in
there wanna f*** you up, huh?
That seems to be
the sense I'm getting.
Well, you're gonna have to carve
some f***ing hearts out, man.
Fry them on a stick
over a fire pit
and then sit down and eat
them, before those motherfuckers
do the aforesaid
f***ing to you, man!
Billy, can you just stop
with the motherfucking this
and motherfucking that.
Please?
F***.
Yeah. F***.
This could really
be a down trip.
My brother and his wife, they're
getting f***ing organized.
Then what should I do?
Get f***ing organized
yourself. Rally your troops.
Do I have troops?
F***, yeah.
You got your mom, don't you?
She's a f***ing battalion.
And the Chamber of Commerce. This
whole thing is about commerce, right?
Right on!
Right on.
I'm off to HQ.
At ease, men... Man.
Go fry those f***ers.
Elliot!
We were in Wallkill.
Hanging with some friends,
making the scene.
Rapping on each other. And
they said this is where it's at.
So we rode our thumbs
up here. Can you dig it?
Elli, help.
It's these two.
They want a hole.
To dig their thumbs.
After they hit each other,
they made a scene in Wallkill!
What are they
talking about?
Just looking to score,
you know, the magic tickets.
Dad, get the tickets.
To the festival.
Okay, Neil, we can see you
coming down the ladder now.
Heading back up
to that first step.
But it's adequate
to get back up.
Roger. We copy. Takes a
pretty good little jump.
Hey. Hi, Tisha. What is it?
You've got
a couple of visitors.
Hello? What can
I do for you?
Mr. Teichberg?
Yes.
Here. That's 47 citations. Wiring,
plumbing, health code violations.
Quite a place
you've got here.
It's humble, but it's home.
Away from home, I mean.
And here's 14 more fire code.
You're way over the occupancy limits.
You've got five days
to pay up and repair
or else we're shutting
you down for good.
Have a nice day.
What's going on?
Your mother says we
can triple our money.
Three times the rooms.
You're kidding me.
They don't seem to mind. Honest.
These people, they like it.
I'm finished here,
you start on the bunking.
I don't know. White Lake
sounds better than Wallkill.
Don't ask me why
they call it Woodstock.
Everyone's gonna drive
to the f***ing real Woodstock
and be really bummed
when they get there.
DOT's letting us put signage
up. Just not on the Thruway yet.
But we're working on it.
We're gonna want to run lines
all the way
back to the fence.
Can you trench here?
No, man. Everything,
water pipes, juice,
all the cables
gotta run aboveground.
I got the specs from
Hanley, for the speakers.
That's a lot of juice.
When Hendrix lights up, there won't
be a bird left in Sullivan County.
Hey, I spoke to Wavy Gravy
and the Hog Farmers.
Wavy?
Yeah.
His real name's Hugh. He's
got 80 freaks, the Hog Farmers.
They've got a commune
in the desert.
They drop more acid
than Timothy Leary.
There's 80 of them coming
in on a jumbo jet next week.
Hey, man, I can't find
the keys to my room.
Ask my mom.
Hey, how's your room?
Fine, man.
Trip tents? Yeah, where
the kids can come down...
From the trip. Wait, wait.
What have you got here?
No, no.
Don't put it down there.
He and his people are willing
to work with you on security.
You know, they really like your
non-confrontational approach.
You know, they wanna
call it a "Please Force. "
Not sure how Fabbri's
going to like that moniker.
We're still going
to need real police.
Hey, Mike,
do you have a second?
I'm just feeling
a little anxious.
Did Tisha tell you about
these code violations?
Hey, Elliot. Just the
