Woodstock co-founder Michael Lang says he is seeking funding for a 40th anniversary concert of the legendary festival to take place this summer.

Lang says he wants the festival to be free, environmentally friendly and to possibly take place in New York.

“We want to have as small a carbon imprint as we can and use as many green techniques as we can,” he told Billboard.

“There would be a lot of legacy bands [performing] – The Who, Santana, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Joe Cocker maybe. And it would be people like Steve Earle and Ben Harper. There’s certainly room for the (Red Hot) Chili Peppers and Dave Matthews…that would be the shape of the music.”
