Woodstock is back! Well, it's kind of back. Last month we reported that a Woodstock-type festival could be returning to the Upstate New York site of the original 1969 concert that featured The Who, Santana, Jimi Hendrix and many others. Today we have confirmation and some of the details.

It has been 54 years since the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair took place on what is considered hallowed ground in Bethel, New York. I'm not talking about Bethel Woods Center For the Arts, which is a 16,000 seat amphitheater. This festival will take place on the original site.
