Have not heard this but alternative nation has an extremely misleading headline (shocking!) That says the same thing. Article attached just talks about 1991 shows

No known rumors of this to date and PJ doesn't generally use openers anymore. I don't see this being accurate.

I thought I saw someone else post this somewhere, not necessarily lithium, but the AiC and Pearl Jam tour. Maybe it was referring to a past tour? I can't imagine AiC touring much past the dates they recently announced, without PJ

This was the tweet by Pearl Jam last week. Not sure where people are getting the joint tour rumors, though I wouldn't put it past Alt Nation to make that leap for clickbait:

was listening in the last half hour or so and the host said he had no info on this and that if they did they would let the listeners know.
I wonder if Michael Lang asked Bethel to pay a license fee or face legal action. Would not surprise me. Hopefully that means Lang will announce his event soon.

Bethel announced lineup. Santana is the biggest name.
The Beatles had nothing to do with the original Woodstock. I hope Ringos All-Star Band is exactly that with a bunch of guests.
Arlo Guthrie is a nice catch! His set at the original Woodstock was a psychedelia wonderland. I believe the only things he told the audience during his short 30 min set were: "New York State throughway is closed, man" and "Lotta freaks!" then proceded to tell a story about Moses and the Israelites and compared the manna from heaven to acid.
Edgar Winter Band is probably the best thing about this tribute. He joined his brother Johnny at the original Woodstock to play Alto sax on a bunch of songs. Could you imagine being in a field at midnight listening to a bunch of jazzy guitar driven blues?
Santana and the Doobies were already on this tour together if i remember correctly. Santana was probably approached first and just added this on his itinerary. Santana has also already said he was asked to play at both. And I think he will.
With Santana and Canned Heat pretty much confirmed to play at Woodstock50, I truly think Lang is trying to out due himself at Watkins Glenn. OG Woodstock talent + Contemporary acts + acts that are guaranteed to draw 40k+ (Think uhhh i don't know, PJ, Dead & Co. Phish etc) And with him saying that they are looking for contemporary acts, but acts who tend to give back more to the community and PJ, Dead & Co., and Beyonce rumored to be playing, I can truly see it happening.
Plus, the rumor is that Bethel Woods promoters heard whispers in the industry of this Woodstock50 lineup and thats why they pulled out.
When you look at it on paper, the picture becomes a little clearer.
One event is literally still called Woodstock. Guessing that is probably hard to overcome when putting together a rival event, in close proximity, for the exact same weekend.
Well I think there is little doubt that PJ was approached to play Watkins Glen. Time will tell if they accepted. Michael Lang owns the rights to the Woodstock brand. Bethel cant use it without paying a fee. I was a bit surprised when they announced a celebration without Lang. Id guess a cease and desist letter went out. Or maybe just a phone call. Enough for them to back off. I would also guess the industry is behind Lang. Just a guess. But hey, you can now buy a woodstock 50 branded martin guitar for $599. I would bet Lang has this monetized to the max.

Part of Woodstock's charm was that unique plot of land.
No festival since had captured the incredible visuals of that live audience. Good luck again Mr. Lang.

it's possible i'm totally weird and different lol but i see nothing "wild" about this announcement. imo a movie? lol. no thanks and this said with respect, but.... ringo's allstar band no thanks. i dig santana and have seen arlo and santana more than once also a easy pass BUT HAVE FUN

I was saying wild as in "gee thats all the could muster up on such short notice" not "wow thats wild im buying a ticket now!"
Wtf, why is anyone even talking about Bethel Woods? I know nothing is happening right now with PJ and maybe some of us would go to Watkins......but Bethel as a conversation is a snooze fest. Go Celtics!

For awhile, there were 2 different "Woodstock" events that were in the works.
The first one announced was to take place at Bethel Woods. The second one announced was to take place at Watkins Glenn.
This threw many "casual" festival fans off, which threw many websites into a tizzy of spreading disinformation, while fights about the woodstock name raged all over the internet.
Sometime during all of this, PJ @ Woodstock somehow became the rumor, and since then has only gained more traction. I'd say the only real somewhat concrete rumour we have so far almost 3 months in to 2019.
During this time of disinformation, and as you said while PJ is on autopilot, many people hoped the band would play at Bethel Woods instead of the Micheal Lang produced Watkins Glenn event.
While I agree with you, it is a snooze fest, I'd rather spread the facts and continue the conversation to see where all this Woodstock stuff goes!
Listening to last year's Fenway 1. The crowd is off the charts incredible on Release. I wish a certain 5 gents enjoyed it as much as we did!
This was amazing. The crowd was ready. Too bad they killed the momentum with Low Light. Still a great show.
I agree especially since Low Light was played at Fenway in 2016 early in the show as well as. It was also played in Worcester so the last 3 MA tours had it. I enjoy the song but it is busted out way too often lately.
100% agree.
As bad as Arms Aloft the next gig? I could only make Fenway 2. Would take some beating...

Arms Aloft had the benefit of being rare, but otherwise I agree. Not a fan of the song and a cover that early in the set felt like a misfire.

Its dreadful along with most of the other covers. First played in Dublin 2010. No reaction from the crowd.

100% total misfire. I loved the GTF opener, then kicked it up with Animal and Save You, and then......Arms Aloft?? It was a total dud.
