Worldwide focus on Sixties music and culture sure to increase demand for Vintage Concert Posters
New details are emerging about the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock and by all major media accounts this event is set to be even larger and more impressive than our most optimistic expectations.
Michael Lang, the producer of the original Woodstock Festival in 1969, is back at the helm. Woodstock 50 will take place August 16th - 18th in Watkins Glen International in upstate New York, just a couple hours away from Bethel, New York where the original Woodstock was held.
An impressive lineup of bands have been announced with a nice blend of classic artists and more contemporary performers. Improbably, a fine assortment of musicians will appear that also performed at the original Woodstock 50 years ago!
These classic 1960’s music legends include Santana, Canned Heat, John Sebastian, John Fogerty, Country Joe McDonald, David Crosby, members of Jefferson Airplane (now performing as Hot Tuna) and Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart from the Grateful Dead!
While history has rightfully noted all the Sixties legends that tragically passed away in their twenties, it is truly inspiring to have this many original musical groups that are still performing and thriving today, 50 years later.
