NEW YORK (AP) â Michael Lang, a co-creator and promoter of the 1969 Woodstock music festival that served as a touchstone for generations of music fans, has died.
Michael Pagnotta, a spokesperson for Langâs family, said Sunday the 77-year-old had been battling non-Hodgkin lymphoma and passed away Saturday at New Yorkâs Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
âHe was absolutely an historic figure, and also a great guy,â Pagnotta, who said he had known Lang for about 30 years, told The Associated Press. âBoth of those thing go hand in hand.â
