Pete Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 pretty stellar lineup. I will strongly consider attending https://www.woodstock.com/lineup/
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I remember the first one, but I was 6 with "unhip" parents. The one thing that hasn't come out yet is the pricing. But that weekend is the weekend we deliver my daughter to college so it's a no-go for me.

Not sure how accurate it was.
Dante Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Woodstock has been one of the most romanticized events over the years. Looks like it was all pretty disgusting. Nasty showers (if they had any) Nastier porto potties. Crappy food. People rolling around in the mud. Lots of OD"s. bleech ?

On par with most modern festivals, at least.
Fr. Jerk Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Not going. Lineup is trash. No Insane Clown Posse.
Teddy KGB Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Just now, The Jerk said: Not going. Lineup is trash. No Insane Clown Posse. Agree. I don’t see toad the wet sprocket either. Seems like a show for hipsters. 1

teef Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 this thing is going to be an abortion. watkins glen is a good venue though...not that i've seen a concert there.

The Killers, The Lumineers, Nate Rateliff, The Head and the Heart, Grandson, Santana. Pretty solid. Maybe I'll go day one and take a trip out to training camp for the rest of the weekend. i could really do day 2 as well. i think you have the right idea by coming into the area and making a few days of it. i'm not sure if one day would be worth the price. the only other concern i have is that it can be a B word to get in and out of the glenn when it's busy.

Only issue is the glen is in the middle of nowhere so I'd be driving a bit after the show to get to an Airbnb in Rochester or something. Day 2 I'd enjoy as well but I wouldn't pay for a whole other day for it. If they sell two day passes at a reduced rate I'd think about it. i'm in rochester, and it's an easy drive. how much is an aribnb in this area? some nice hotel rooms can be had for pretty inexpensive. I would guess the tickets are an all or nothing type thing. if they sold by the day, that may be very worth it.

Quick look showed me an entire apartment in the Park Ave area for $87 per night that weekend. The suburbs can get really cheap. that's actually pretty good. if the apartment on park ave is nice, it's a much better rate than a hotel. there are a lot of good bars, restaurants, cafes, etc in that area as well. once you're parked, you can walk around and find a lot to do.
row_33 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 go for it youngsters, get to every concert and have a great time as often as you can, it dries up on you eventually. 2
Buffalo716 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 God bless my elderly father... He will be at this one and was at the others... hope he doesn’t do acid... again 3

Marv's Neighbor Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Anyone that says they were there AND says they remember are not to be believed.

The thing just snowballed, and all those people showed up in my honor! Best birthday party EVER!!! 1
