Woodstock 50th Anniversary Concert 2019
Woodstock 50th anniversary concert site, dates confirmed for 2019
It’s official: A Woodstock 50th anniversary concert is coming to the original site of the 1969 music festival in Upstate New York next year.
The Bethel Woods Center for the Arts confirmed Thursday that it will host a three-day event on August 16-18, 2019, titled “Bethel Woods Music and Culture Festival.” The “pan-generational music, culture, and community event” will celebrate the golden anniversary of the original Woodstock concert with a series of concerts, “TED-style talks,” and a “We Are Golden” history exhibit at the Museum at Bethel Woods.
"Fifty years ago, people gathered peacefully on our site inspired to change the world through music. As the stewards of this historic site, we remain committed to preserving this rich history and spirit and to educating and inspiring new generations to contribute positively to the world through music, culture and community,” Bethel Woods CEO Darlene Fedun said in a statement.
The lineup for the Bethel Woods celebration, put on by Live Nation and INVNT, has not been announced yet. Artists rumored to have been approached include Daft Punk, Bruce Springsteen, Eminem, Ariana Grande, Coldplay, Phish, The Weeknd, Elton John, Bon Jovi, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Pink, The Who, Santana, Zac Brown Band, Mumford & Sons, and The Chainsmokers (featuring Syracuse University alumnus Drew Taggart).
Carlos Santana, who performed at the original Woodstock concert and its 25th anniversary celebration in 1994, has already said he’s booked at Bethel Woods for the 2019 event. He also said he’s been approached by original Woodstock promoter Michael Lang for a separate 50th anniversary concert.
Lang said there are “definite plans” for a Woodstock celebration, but confirmed to the Poughkeepsie Journal last week that it’s separate from the event in Bethel, N.Y. Lang has not said where his event will be held or what artists will be performing.
Live Nation said the Bethel Woods Woodstock celebration lineup and ticket information will be announced soon.
An estimated 400,000 people attended the first Woodstock Music and Arts Festival, held Aug. 15-18, 1969 at Max Yasgur’s dairy farm near White Lake in the Catskill Mountains. Performers included Richie Havens, Jefferson Airplane, The Who, Joan Baez, Jimi Hendrix, Arlo Guthrie, Santana, Joe Cocker, the Grateful Dead and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
The iconic concert was revisited in 1994 with a modern lineup of artists like Nine Inch Nails, Sheryl Crow, Metallica, Cypress Hill and Red Hot Chili Peppers in Saugerties, but Woodstock ’99 -- held at Griffiss Air Force Base in Rome, N.Y. -- ended the fun with riots, fires and allegations of sexual assault.

Nothing says "Peace, Love & Music" like Eminem.

"I wish Bon Jovi would've given me a call before he recorded all of his hits, because the lyrics would've been smarter, the melodies would've been much more smashing, and they would've sold a lot fewer records." -David Lee Roth
"My beef is people thinking Bon Jovi is good cuz they sold lots of records to housewives." -tango
"But being number one doesn’t really mean jack fuck all. We sold twice as many records as other records that year (1984) that landed in the Number One position." ~Eddie Van Halen

When I was student teaching I couldn’t get this 7th grade class under control. And even the PhD who was there to help and observe me from time to time told me, “You’re screwed. I’ve never seen kids...
