Woodstock 50 has been torpedoed.
Organizers told Billboard, “Despite our tremendous investment of time, effort and commitment, we don’t believe the production of the festival can be executed as an event worthy of the Woodstock Brand name while also ensuring the health and safety of the artists, partners and attendees.” Basically, they didn’t want to create their own Fyre Festival debacle.
Billboard notes that over $30 million’s already been spent on talent, and the line-up was over-the-top, including Imagine Dragons, Chance the Rapper, the Killers, Raconteurs and more.
