Woodstock 50th Anniversary Festival Cancelled

Woodstock 50th Anniversary Festival Canceled



   There will be no 50th-anniversary celebration of Woodstock this summer. According to a new report from Billboard shared early Monday afternoon, the three-day festival organized by Woodstock co-founder Michael Lang which was set to take place at Watkins Glen International on August 16th–18th, has officially been canceled.

   The somewhat (but not really) surprising news on Monday comes just a week after the event’s on-sale date for tickets was postponed, sparking rumors of a potential cancellation which as now come into fruition. Just a few days later, Lang shared his hopes for potential international expansion for the Woodstock brand, although they now may be in jeopardy going forward.

This story is developing.

Seems like some things are just too flukey to try and repeat. 

SFO tried to do a 50th anniversary Summer of LOve event in 2017 that turned out to be sort of a dud, although not a total fail.

And today I'm reading that this will be the last year for Burning Man due to the Feds getting all red tapey with next year's planning.  Of course I think BM is already over the hill since it's become an expensive  caricature of what it once was.  But still, the Fed getting involved is just a further instance of it being something Trump doesn't like.

Good. Woodstock was the detritus of America. I hope it never comes back.
