June 28, 2007Goodstock 2007 Coming July 19 - 21 in Summersville, WVPress release
Goodstock 2007 is produced and promoted by Larry McClurg, of '60s RCA band Mind Garage, and Artie Kornfeld, famed music industry songwriter, manager, producer, and most notable as co-creator of the 1969 WOODSTOCK MUSIC AND ART FAIR - rock history's greatest 'happening' - on Yasgur's farm in upstate New York. According to Larry McClurg, Goodstock promoter, "Imagine the excitement of seeing the stars and legends of rock who played the Fillmore East, West and Woodstock, with the bands who opened for them, and the fans who were there, all in one place again. That's what Goodstock 2007 is. This is not an attempt to go back, re-create or re-visit. It is a new 'happening' and an opportunity for the whole family to experience a re-awakening of the ideals of peace and togetherness through music." "Over the years since 1969 there have been attempts to recreate Woodstock. They had the acts and had the stage but they did not have the Goodstock2007 feeling of reliving of a moment when all good came together through music as one. They never got back to the Garden at these events. Now, a few months before the festival, I am more more excited and happy about Goodstock than I was about Woodstock. Woodstock was a venture, Goodstock is an adventure. Goodstock will, in a 2007 way have the same musical variety Woodstock had in 69, and will cover the entire music tastes of 3 generations. I consider Goodstock 2007 to be the first real attempt to have another 3 days of peace and music. I feel magic AGAIN. We need it !!! " With nearly 50 bands booked to date, Goodstock 2007 will be held July 19 - 21, 2007 on 1,000 rolling acres at the Goodevening Ranch in Summersville, West Virginia. Like Woodstock 1969, Goodstock 2007 is a 3-day music and camping event. The ranch will be transformed into Goodstock Village, as a festival of the '60s offering memorabilia, clothing and band attire, a '60s museum style exhibit, and bands performing continually. Camp in the Village or stay in nearby hotels. The Village will accommodate bands and music festival fans from nearly every state in the USA, as well as countries worldwide. Unlike Woodstock's for-profit imitators of recent years, Goodstock 2007 is all about peace and music instead of generating profit. More information on the event, band line-up, and purchase of tickets is available by visiting the Goodstock website at: www.goodstock2007.com. GOODSTOCK is produced and promoted by Larry McClurg, Artie Kornfeld and Goodstock LLC.
