WIRTW #564 (the “Woodstock” edition)

At this moment very moment, 50 years ago, an estimated 400,000 people were gathered on Max Yasgur’s dairy farm in Bethel, New York, celebrating 3 days of peace and music.

Woodstock.

On Sunday, my kids will take the stage at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as part of School of Rock’s Woodstock Festival. Each of the three local Schools of Rock will perform a shortened version of their full Summer Woodstock shows. 

Here’s a short preview of what you’ll see. Donovan on vocals, and Norah holding down the bass and adding more vocals, on Sly & Family Stone’s Sing a Simple Song.


The performance runs from 2 - 5 on Sunday on the big stage on the Rock Hall plaza. The music is free; the love isn’t (they’re just kids after all).

Here’s what I read this week.
