    "Watch out for music. It should come with a health warning. It can be dangerous. It can make you feel so alive, so connected to the people around you, and connected to what you really are inside. And it can make you think that the world should, and could, be a much better place. And just occasionally, it can make you very, very happy." -Peter Gabriel

    I can't tell the difference between Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Woodstock this year.

    Wow. Glad I took off back in the 90s for that one. NIN, porno for pyros, Dee-Lite, RHCP, joe cocker, violent fem, primus, bob dylan...hey that was a solid 20+++years ago. cant recreate that today...tons of mud.
    sure some people from the new generation will have fun there this time...

    Friday and Saturday are decent but probably not enough to go.  I will wait for more details on tickets.

    At the very least, I hope Limp Bizkit's manager gave them a call just to see what's up.

    I think it's a pretty solid line up myself. I'd love to see several of those acts, especially The Killers, The Raconteurs, Portugal. The Man, Leon Bridges, Gary Clark Jr. Although I have to admit day 3 looks like shit.

    I’m really on the fence to go to this festival. Not everything the rumors hyped it up to be, but considering the trash lineups elsewhere this may be the best festival option for a long time...

    Woodstock 50, however, shared the following statement with the local Poughkeepsie Journal:
    “Woodstock 50 vehemently denies the festival’s cancellation and legal remedy will (be) sought.”

    I am not so sure its over yet.  I'd guess millions have been shelled out to guarantee some of the artists. This is probably a strategy for the investors to get some money back. Definitely a shit show.  Lang should have outsourced the event to C3, then sit back and count the money.

    I agree with both of you guys. SandyRavage (great username by the way) is right that people these days seem to get off on the shortcomings or failures of others. But I don't think that's the case here with Woodstock. A very underwhelming lineup (compared to the 1969, 1994, and 1999 festivals), never saying what the ticket prices are, and postponing the ticket onsale date when it came caused me to "wait and see" rather than begin making plans. I almost booked a hotel too. Thank god I didn't.

    I get your point, but speaking only for myself, it's not that I want people to fail, but festivals have ruined what I love about concerts (short sets, shitty crowd, crazy prices, hard to get to).  Being in Chicago, Lolla keeps a lot of my favorite bands from playing headline shows.  Over the last 5 years, I basically hope that none of "my bands" will play Lolla and if they do, they also do an aftershow that I can actually attend.  If wanting this festival trend to pull back because it has gotten out of hand and is hardly about the music anymore makes me a bad person, so be it.

    Agreed.

    A lot of bands just do the festival circuit now instead of their own shows.

    Bigger audience and bigger paycheck I guess?

    On that note Jay-z did a 1400 person show this weekend at the opening of Webster Hall.  How cool would THAT have been to attend?

    NYC reopening of Webster Hall = all suits and friends. It is a great venue though.
    I love music festivals.  Great way to spend a weekend in a park with friends drinking beer and seeing TONS of live music.

    I'm torn. I've been to amazing festivals and complete shitshows. If festivals could be downsized by 80%, but I get to choose the 20% I'm in.

    That’s exactly why I got tix to Ohana Fest this year. A “festival” yes, but smaller feel. Anyone ever go to the Life Is Good festival when it was around in Mass?
