Bell said backstage in Denver last week that "We have a reissue of Pinkerton coming out with new packaging, and—I'm praying—a Pinkerton tour, where we'll play all the songs off Pinkerton, soon."

Today In Woodstock History: Woodstock 1994 Comes To An End

Featured , Misc , Woodstock Music 1 Comment »

The final day of Woodstock 94 was a dry one, but the mud people had already taken over. The day started with a little Sunday gospel courtesy of The Sisters Of Gospel. The festival rocked old-school with Santana, The Allman Brothers Band, Traffic and Jimmy Cliff. The biggest bands of the mid-‘90s also performed including a light-bulb wearing Red Hot Chili Peppers and a mud-slinging Green Day. And 25 years after taking a pass at performing as part of Woodstock 1969, Bob Dylan delivered an incredible set, marking yet another miraculous comeback on the stage in Saugerties. The night, and the festival, ended under candlelight with Peter Gabriel performing Biko, a song of courage and hope. The year was 1994, 350,00 people gathered in the name of peace and music, and the spirit of Woodstock had endured.
