Woodstock '94 kicked off today with tens of thousands flocking to the three-day event in upstate New York. Some 180,000 scored the $135 tickets. Melissa Etheridge, Aerosmith, the Spin Doctors, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel and veteran Woodstocker Joe Cocker will perform over the weekend. One aspect of the original Woodstock threatens to repeat itself -- weather forecasters predict on-again off-again thunderstorms that would once again turn the fields of the 850-acre farm into mud.
