AUGUST 9, 2006 --

Lonely Pamphleteer Review is taking a short break and plans to be back next week with lots of photos of the terrific 39th Connecticut Agricultural Fair.

The featured performer, Saturday, was the legendary Richie Havens, who opened the 1969 Woodstock Festival -- and perhaps Mr. Havens brought some of the Woodstock atmosphere with him, as rain poured down at the end of his
performance. He just continued on, inviting the audience to gather at the stage, under the tent.

Here are a few of LPR's photos of the Haven's concert at the Connecticut Agricultural Fair. More next week.

The Woodstock Spirit … The gentleman in this photo told LPR that he was at Woodstock in 1969.
