"THE HEROES OF WOODSTOCK & SUMMER OF LOVE ROCK & ROLL CIRCUS" featuring
original performers from the most important event in rock music history have
joined together to tour the world in celebration of and tribute to "The
Original Three Days of Peace & Music" that occurred at Yasgur's Farm in
Bethel, NY in August 1969.
Jefferson Starship will perform Jefferson Airplane's set & more, Canned
Heat, Melanie and Grateful Dead alumnus Tom Constanten will perform, Big
Brother & The Holding Co. will perform Janis Joplin's set, and Country Joe
McDonald will perform and host - as they did on Aug. 15 & 16, 1969 in
Bethel, NY. Ray Manzarek & Robby Krieger from The Doors will perform on
select dates. The tour pays further homage to the original festival as every
ticket purchaser shall be given the free soundboard download of the entire
performance they actually attend. "Woodstock was not only iconic for the
music," points out tour co-producer and Jefferson Starship manager Michael
Gaiman, "but also for the fact that so many fans got in for free and that
such an instantly large population co-existed peacefully. It is in this
spirit that we are adding the free download perk, something no one has ever
done before on this scale."
"Woodstock changed the world," said tour co-producer and Canned Heat manager
Skip Taylor, who was there in 1969.
"It brought the ethics of the counter-culture to national prominence," added
tour co-producer and Big Brother & The Holding Co. manager Tim Murphy.
