The first large outdoor rock [[music festival]] was at [[Ngaruawahia]], 1973, in the central [[North Island]], [[New Zealand]]. The largest ever was in Golden Valley, 1979, just north of [[Waihi]].
Created under authority of the Uniformed Services Health Professions Revitalization Act of 1972, the HPSP is the primary source of trained healthcare professionals entering the [[United States Armed Forces]], followed by the [[Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences]] (USUHS). Subject to eligibility for a commission (such as US citizenship, physical and academic qualifications, etc.), scholarship winners ("selectees") are commissioned as [[Second Lieutenant|second lieutenants]] or [[Ensign (rank)|ensigns]] in the [[US Army Reserve]], the [[US Air Force Reserve]], or the [[US Navy Reserve]]. The selectees are then placed on inactive reserve status during their [[medical school|medical training]].
"There are regular jazz, folk, ethnic and country music awards and festivals, some of which have been in existence for decades. Large music festivals, for example [[Sweetwaters Music Festival]]s, [[Nambassa]] and The [[Big Day Out]], have been staged periodically since the 1970s." Nancy Swarbrick. 'Creative life', Te Ara - the Encyclopedia of New Zealand, updated 18-Nov-2005 [http://www.TeAra.govt.nz/NewZealandInBrief/CreativeLife/en]


==New Zealand Record==
Prospective students compete for scholarships that cover some or all of the medical school years. The Air Force offers three- and four-year scholarships, and the Army offers one- to four-year scholarships. While on scholarship, the financial expenses of tuition, fees, health insurance, and mandatory books and equipment are paid by the student's sponsoring service, estimated to be up to $250,000.
* [[Nambassa]] for being the largest music event in New Zealand. "nearly 60,000 came, making it, per capita, the world’s largest festival of its type. " "Nambassa will be remembered for many things.

As inactive reserve officers, the students are required by law to serve 45 days of active duty each fiscal year. While on active duty, they receive the same rights, privileges, and pay, and are subject to the [[Uniform Code of Military Justice]], as any other active-duty officer. For the first two years of training, this duty is usually spent attending an officer basic course/school ([http://www.cs.amedd.army.mil/obc/ Army], [https://otcn.netc.navy.mil/ois/index.cfm Navy], [http://ots.afoats.af.mil/ Air Force]) or executing "School Orders" at the student's university. For the 3rd and 4th years, the student is expected to carry out elective clinical rotations at a military hospital.

The incurred service obligation is generally one-for-one for every service-paid year of schooling, with a minimum of two years. Additional time required for certain postgraduate programs, such as lengthy residencies, can result in longer service obligations. Fulfillment of the obligation begins only ''after'' postgraduate training is completed. For Navy officers, time spent as a GMO is credited towards the service obligation.
* The Great Ngaruawahia Music Festival - Corben Simpson removed all his clothes on stage and was reported nation-wide in the media, Black Sabbath burned a cross on the hill while getting the entire audience to light a match or lighter. "Todd (Hunter) ... gathered some friends and fellow performers for an appearance at the Great Ngaruawahia Music Festival. They wrote original songs for their set list, and someone pulled the name "Dragon" out of an I Ching book. Their performance at the Ngaruawahia Music Festival led to a better gig, a few weeks performing at the Occidental Hotel in Auckland."


* Sweetwaters Music Festival - On closing night with jam packed traffic, A man had a serious seizure, a doctor was called via helicopter, the police boat transferred the man across the Waipa river to a waiting ambulance, bound for Waikato hospital.

"There are regular jazz, folk, ethnic and country music awards and festivals, some of which have been in existence for decades. Large music festivals, for example Sweetwaters Music Festivals, Nambassa and The Big Day Out, have been staged periodically since the 1970s." Nancy Swarbrick.
