not sure if this is true (it is from the phish forum)  they seem to enjoi posting shite over there.

Chief Woodstock promoter Michael Lang is planning two free Woodstock concerts in Berlin, Germany and in New York in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the original 1969 festival. According to the press release, the New York show still doesn't have a venue, but will take place on the actual 40th anniversary of August 15th and 16th.

The Berlin show will take place at the now-closed Tempelhof Airport on August 22nd and August 23rd.

Lang and his partners are hoping to snag some of the original participants that performed at Yasgur's Farm back in '69, including Santana, the Who, Joan Baez, Joe Cocker, Grateful Dead, Country Joe and the Fish, as well as current top acts.

Joe just told me last night that he never saw it anywhere else besides here and now with this Lady Sovereign date...I dunno.



I guess they could do an early/late thing.

Lady Sovereign is late show. I hope it's really Sharon Jones for the early show...it's just not confirmed anywhere else....

Am I the only one who doesn't quite get what everyone sees in Grizzly Bear?


nope, i'm with you.  when they opened for radiohead in philly they were merely OK.  definitely better than liars but not something i feel the need to trek out for.  maybe their headliner show is much better than their opening act routine?  or maybe i was all ZOMG RADIOHEAD!!!111eleventy and unable to appreciate them on their own terms.  who knows.
