This week marks the 44th anniversary of the original Woodstock Music and Art Festival, and I'm celebrating by reviving my Woodstock Memorial concert next Wednesday, August 21, at La Costa de Papito. It will be a whole evening of songs that were played at the festival, and this time - assuming all goes as planned - I'll be joined some very special guests to kick out the jams on some of those rock and blues numbers. Of course there will be plenty of acoustic classics, too, from the sets played by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, the great Richie Havens (rest his soul,) John Sebastian, and more. And of course Jimi will definitely be in the building!
Yesterday marked the opening day of what became a 4 day event, and my friends and I arrived early that evening after a 7 mile hike from our abandoned car, parked somewhere in the Monticello area I think. But I'll save the details on that for Wednesday! (Show starts at 7:00, reservations recommended: 506 2750 0080.)
