4. Janis Joplin

Getting paid $7500 to perform was no mean feat. Janis Joplin thrilled the Woodstock fans with her popular "piece of my heart." She also performed other songs which received massive cheers and reception from the Woodstock crowd.

She was flown to the venue of the festival by Helicopter. She encouraged her band members to play and perform like it was just another gig. She loved the atmosphere at Woodstock that after her performance, she stayed back to celebrate with the attendees for the rest of the festival.
