(13 Aug 2009) HEADLINE: Iconic Woodstock couple still together CAPTION: They were the symbol of Woodstock, a young couple huddled together in a blanket. Find out what their lives are like now, 40 years later. (Aug. 13) [Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] NB. THIS IS A VOICEOVER TRANSCRIPT, NOT A FULL SHOT LIST. (Bethel, NY) It is one of the iconic images of the 1960s. A young couple embracing in the crowd at the Woodstock Festival in 1969. It became the cover of the Woodstock album, and is now on permanent display at the Woodstock museum. (Pine Bush, NY) Guess what, the couple is still together! "We have a wonderful family, we've been truly blessed, truly blessed" Bobbi and Nick Ercoline were twenty years old when they went to Woodstock. "We did what any 20 year old kids would do, they told us not to go so we went." They had been dating only a couple of months. (Bobbi and Nick Ercoline) "Everybody happy, singing, dancing, doing drugs, eating, sleeping." They were not aware they were being photographed. "We didn't know it was being taken, I'm tired, but I love you, that's pretty much what it says." Today they live less than an hour from where the festival took place, not far from where they each grew up. They now have three children. He works for the department of housing, and she's a school nurse. "At that time people didn't think with free love and you know, sex, drugs and rock and roll, that it was just like carefree and not responsible. But we've been together for 40 years and true to each other for that time." They have a large version of the photo on their kitchen wall. They look to look at it with their good friend, Jim "Corky" Corcoran, who is also in the photo, on the lower right with his knee up in a sleeping bag. At that time he was a Marine newly returned from Vietnam. (Jim "Corky" Corcoran) "To have that many people together peacefully was a monumental task." For these members of the Woodstock generation, that spirit of peace and music carries through to today.
