In 1970, the Festival Express set off across Canada for a rock and roll tour like no other before or since. Various big-name acts of the day (The Band, The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin and more) traveled together by Canadian National Railways train to three different cities, the idea being that by having the musicians share close quarters, the train would become a kind of mobile art colony. The tour survived various unexpected problems along the way, including a few riots when fans who were expecting to get in for free discovered that tickets were actually $14, a rather hefty sum for the time.
