Hey there. Seems that they will or hopefully will be having the 50th anniversary of Woodstock in summer 2019, in August. This is great news, and there have been some interesting rumored bands, just wondering if any of you all have any guesses to what bands might be there, or who you would like to be there. Cheers!

I'm wondering if there is anyone on myLot who was actually at Woodstock or whose parents were

That's a great question/thing to wonder. I wonder the same, now that you bring it up.
My cousin went to the '99 version of Woodstock, sounded like it was pretty fun!
I live in Canada, but am not too to far from the NY state border, so if the bands that end up playing are worth going and I find someone to go with or whatever, I just might end up going!

@ThreeTeddies Hah, feel free to Yeah but if it's anything like what the rumoured bands are, just some to name: Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, The Who, Santana, Pink, Elton John, Coldplay, Eminem.. And a bunch of other greats, then I would most likely be interested haha.
Btw, you guys get some pretty good festivals over there in the UK, I am quite envious. I mean, in Canada we get a few good ones, but I feel like they can't compare to over there, at least not when it comes to rock/metal, etc.

They had a "Woodstock '99" on the 30th anniversary. It was a dismal failure. I think it'd be cool if they could bring some of the original bands (or the surviving members) back for the 50th anniversary....of course, that would mean that Crosby, Stills, and Nash would have to talk to one another again.....

Yes, you're absolutely right, my cousin went to the '99, 30th anniversary. I didn't realize it was a failure, I just remember when I looked up the lineup to it, it looked like an interesting lineup. And I agree, that would be super cool, but ah, that makes sense, we can only hope!

@mawdest At the original Woodstock there is video of people actually covered in mud, there was mud all around the area where the audience was standing/sitting.

I was just a tad bit too young to go 50 years ago, but I'm certainly old enough to go this time around!!
