May 4, 2009, 15 years ago
According to the Associated Press, some performers from the 1969 Woodstock concert will get back to the garden for a 40th anniversary show this summer.
On the bill for August 15 are THE LEVON HELM BAND, JEFFERSON STARSHIP, BIG BROTHER AND THE HOLDING CO., TEN YEARS AFTER, CANNED HEAT, MOUNTAIN, and COUNTRY JOE MCDONALD.
They'll perform at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel. It was built on the site of the dairy farm trampled on by some 400,000 people on the weekend of August 15-17, 1969.
It includes an amphitheater and a museum up the hill from the original stage.
The returning acts feature some Woodstock veterans, including Helm, who performed in '69 with THE BAND.
