A new Woodstock will happen 50 years later. So, who can still perform? And who should?

I gathered back when that most all the Stones had done that total transfusion routine in Switzerland. Was to end addiction to heroin without withdrawal unpleasantness.

And a lot of cat food cans aka their tuna.

John Fogerty (CCR), although CCR's performance was not released on the film nor the soundtrack. Rumor has it the record company owning their rights couldn't come to an agreement. No surprise there, given all of the legal issues CCR and Fogerty had over the decades with them.
Fogerty is a raging liberal these days, so he would fit right in. Which saddens me because CCR was one of my all-time favorite groups.

Go to the beach. That’s all I’m saying.

They’ll have to build the arena like a Greek ampitheater to wheel all the remaining geriatics out to the stage.....,

The Who (the two who survive) would definitely be able to - saw them for the first and only time in 2017 and they were great. Watched their Woodstock performance of “See Me Feel Me” and although their 2017 version wasn’t quite as energetic, it was still really good.

Woodstock - an American memorabilia event, no more to be repeated that VE Day, 1945, the end of the war in Europe.
The original participants may no longer be gathered, and the events cannot be recreated as any more than carefully arranged poses.

This thing will fizzle out when all of the old Woodstockers take off their clothes.
To: Morgana
Sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll with filthy hippies in endless MUD, what’s not to love?
Think I’ll pass....

“The Dead were stoned to the point that their music was unintelligible.”
Could be any GD performance. Funny.
To: northside
Actually I saw the Dead 6-7 times. They definitely have different degrees of proficiency in their music. Sometimes excellent. Im talking about their more country stuff not their psychedelic early acid stuff.

It is sad seeing these old rock warhorses still taking the stage a half century past their prime.

It is an indicator of the choke hold baby boomers have on the culture. Reanimating Woodstock fifty years after the fact would be like the 1965 Super Bowl featuring a half-time performance by the
Cliquot Club Eskimos.

I hope the Rolling Stones don’t employ the Hell’s Angels for security like they did at The Altamont Speedway Free Festival. Or maybe they should?
To: conservative98
Bon Jovi and Clapton actually melded into one person back in 1993. I saw it on the internet, so I believe it.
To: Morgana
It will be like Coachella in CA or Ultra in Miami.
To: donna
I’ve heard the album. Most of the music was crap, IMO.
