Yeah, I saw it the other day.  It was hilarious.  For those interested, the 
character Slappy the Squirrel went to upstate New York to get some rest, but her 
tree happened to be right smack dab in the middle of Woodstock.  Appearing in 
the cartoon were impressions of Country Joe & the Fish, Joe Cocker, and then The 
Who.  They did a parody of "See Me, Feel Me", with Roger singing "Sense me, 
Listen to me, Smell Me" and then he proceeded to smell his armpit.  The 
aforementioned Who's on Stage routine (based on Abbott and Costello's "Who's on 
First") followed.  Slappy ended up being so distraught over the noise being 
made, that she stole Jimi Hendrix's guitar and smashed it into the amplifier.  
The Who took notice, said "cool", and proceeded to smash their instruments as 
well.  They all ended up getting shocked, the stage exploded, and they were 
carried out on stretchers.  Roger was drawn with the frills on the sleeves, and 
Pete was drawn with the white jumpsuit, no beard, and he even had the Gibson SG. 
 All in all, it was hilarious.
