Rockin' Productions hosts a concert to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Woodstock this Friday and also hopes to locate the two babies born at the legendary New York rock and roll festival.
Held at Genesee Theatre in Waukegan, Ill., the "Heroes of Woodstock" concert line-up includes Jefferson Starship and Woodstock originals such as Canned Heat, Country Joe McDonald and Big Brother and the Holding Company.
Back in 1969, reports say two babies were born at the Woodstock music festival held on Max Yasgur's farm in upstate New York. Unknown to this day, Rockin' Productions asks these two people to step forward and join the celebration.
If found, they will be honored at a subsequent concert in Boston.
Even if they don't come forward, you can travel back in time to 1969 this Friday with a night of music and memories in Waukegan.
Tickets are available through Genesee Theatre for $47.50, $57.50 or $78.
