Is the rock music festival the gang talks about in this episode Woodstock? I mean given the time period of the original series and the fact that they mentioned Creedence and Three Dog Night...I guess I was just wondering if it had ever been confirmed that the gang went to Woodstock?

It's...possible, I guess. I have my doubts, though, as Woodstock took place 14 months before this episode aired. Honestly, I think it's just any given event, since Woodstock is only one of dozens, if not hundreds of music festivals to take place during that time period.

its unlikely that it is Woodstock, it is far more likely to be local music festival. besides. woodstock took place in 1969, while this is clearly mentioning early 70s bands

And, if I'm not mistaken, ironically both bands were supposed to have been at Woodstock but I don't believe Three Dog Night actually made it. (Not sure about CCR.) |

Since the episode has a definite "Southern flavor" to it: the closest thing they were most likely referring to was THE 1970 ATLANTA POP FESTIVAL (which took place in July of that year).
It was actually the second-annual one held there (the first, the prior summer, had Woodstock beat on the calendar by a month and CCR was featured...though they were not at the 1970 event).
TDN wasn't at Atlanta -nor Woodstock- however; they were the band, coincidentally, with the first number one song played on Casey's first-ever America's Top 40 (with: "Mama Told Me Not to Come").
The most famous thing about the 1970 Atlanta Festival was that it would wind-up being JIMI HENDRIX's last public appearance in the U.S. before his death two months later.
