More Saturday cheapness is coming, but this extravaganza seemed to deserve its own post.
I don't have time to fix the columns...
--------------------------------------------
SAT 8/18 and SUN 8/19
Noon to 10pm
"Woodstock 4"
at Boston Common, Boston
Four stages:
-- near Soldiers and Sailors MonumentFREE
-- Founders Stage, Beacon Street side, North-West
-- Cross Paths, Beacon Street side, North-East
-- near State House
Usually these Woodstock/Weirdstock events is at the Cambridge YMCA with 20+ bands, so things have gotten really out of control for the 4th annual event.
With so many performers doing 15 minutes right after each other at 4 locations on the Common, it's probably going to feel disorganized.
Maybe it'll feel like the original Woodstock with a lot of unkempt hipsters dancing all over the lawn. It might even rain like 1969...
The idea is for everyone to have a typical busking set-up, and there should be no breaks in between. I'm listing the schedule, but it won't be exact. Some of the spaces are blank on the schedule, and some are listed for longer sets.
The crowd's positive vibrations can make this kind of thing special, so let's shoot for more Woodstock '69 than '99.
The schedule is hopefully current; I've added links to the bands that I recognize and/or like.
Good times to go today: Noon-ish (Cotton Candy, Little War Twins, The Diamond Mines, School for Robots, Lowman) or 3pm-ish (Onslo, Jesse Kaminsky / Steve Norton, Happy Lives) or later in the evening.
Somewhere in the Common, Vic Rawlings is probably going to play experimental cello for 4 hours and Jacob Mashak will perform John Cage's 4'33" consecutively 100 times.
