BETHEL WOODS CENTER FOR THE ARTS A must visit site for the avid 60's music & culture fan.This is a great site and it's an even greater "sight" if you are able to visit it live. Bethel Woods Center for the Arts is a $100,000 million outdoor performing arts center and museum located approximately 90 minutes from New York City at the site of the original 1969 Woodstock festival in Bethel, NY. The 15,000 seat outdoor performing arts venue and The Museum at Bethel Woods are set within nearly 2,000 bucolic acres. The Pavilion Stage can accommodate 15,000 guests both under cover and on a natural sloping lawn, while offering unique backdrops including the original festival site and the majesty of the surrounding Sullivan County countryside. Other venues at the center include a 1,000-seat outdoor Terrace Stage, the Museum Events Gallery – an intimate indoor space for performance, lectures and special events, and the original Woodstock concert site, which holds a permit for 30,000 concertgoers to attend major musical events. This season marks the 10th anniversary of the Harvest Festival, an annual event celebrating the bounty, talent, and beauty of Sullivan County and the surrounding area. The Museum at Bethel Woods explores the unique experience of the Woodstock festival, its significance as a culminating event of a decade of radical cultural transformation, and the legacies of the Sixties and Woodstock today. Through personal stories and profiles, immersive multi-media exhibit displays and experiences, engaging programs, and educational events, The Museum will encourage inter-generational dialogue about important ideas and issues relevant to today. It will also help preserve the historic site on which the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair took place. The Museum at Bethel Woods is an impressive facility with a permanent exhibit space, a special exhibit gallery, Events Gallery and museum retail store. The purpose of the arts center is to improve the quality of life in Sullivan County and the surrounding region by promoting economic development and interest in our region and its residents through arts, education, and culture at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts.

CYNICS  Formed in 1983 by Get Hip Recordings owner Gregg Kostelich, The CYNICS are a Garage-Punk institution. After 6 studio albums, 2 live albums, 20+ singles and several compilation tracks, the band is still full of power and creativeness. After a long hiatus in the late 90’s the band reunited in July 2000 to play the Las Vegas Grind Garage festival (sharing the bill with the Remains, the Lyres, Swingin Neckbreakers and many others) and a successful comeback tour of Spain followed in September of the same year. These two events revamped the interest in the Cynics and fueled them with energy. They continued to tour in 2001 going from L.A. to Montreal and from Madrid to Mexico City, playing to eagerly enthusiastic crowds everywhere… In December 2001 they recorded some new tracks in Pittsburgh, released as two 7” singles on Get Hip Recordings. THE CYNICS headed to Austin, Texas in April 2002 for the recording of their new album (first one in 7 years) at Sweatbox Studios with the mighty Tim Kerr producing and Mike Vasquez engineering. The 14 tracks were laid down in just 3 days and mixing was completed first week in June. They cover quite a dynamic range -- from howling, feedback drenched fuzzed out guitar and bass to pounding, primordial beat bashing, all the way to melodic, folk/rock and pop harmonies.   For more information about the Cynics, visit their websites: myspace.com/thecynicsrocknroll or www.thecynics.ws     DICK DALE OFFICIAL SITE This is the official site of the great surf guitar king.Filled with discographys,history,tour dates,merchandise and multimedia.You can also email Dick from the site.

After The Nerves disbanded in 1977, Collins moved to LA and formed The Beat with bassist Steve Huff, drummer Mike Ruiz and lead guitarist Larry Whitman.
