“Stage Fright – The Concert” returns to The Woodstock Playhouse this Saturday, featuring The THE BAND Band, a local and nationally recognized and celebrated tribute to The Band.
The Band is inextricably linked to Woodstock, from a little pink house outside of town to a certain festival bearing its name. In August 1970, they released their third album, Stage Fright, recorded right here on the site of the Woodstock Playhouse. Now, The THE BAND Band performs the album in its entirety, including the songs “The Shape I’m In,” “W.S. Walcott Medicine Show,” and “Stage Fright,” and other classic songs from The Band’s extraordinary repertoire.
The THE BAND Band is the only nationally touring band dedicated exclusively to the accurate reproduction of The Band’s music. Bassist and co-founder Gary Solomon has a personal connection with Stage Fright. “It was my first album. I got it when it first came out, and I’ve been a huge fan of The Band ever since.” He adds that he got the idea to present a live performance of Stage Fright for the 50th anniversary of its release in 2020. “Back in 1970, The Band wanted to record it as a live concert, but after the Woodstock festival the previous year, the town turned them down. So this is the concert they might have played.”
Come on out and catch the show!
