Opens another venue to go with the Cap and Bowls.
Lots of promo about the man but nothing mentions his Lockn' project! How about "it was fun while it lasted' at least?

Music impresario Peter Shapiro and his Dayglo Presents company will take over operations at the Bearsville Theater in Woodstock, starting June 1 on a multi-year lease to stage shows at the theater, which just completed multimillion-dollar renovations. Shapiro also owns The Capitol Theatre (known as The Cap) in Westchester County and Brooklyn Bowls in Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Nashville and Las Vegas.
“The Bearsville should be a mini-Cap,” Shapiro, a 51-year-old New York City resident, said in a recent interview.
Shapiro enters Woodstock held in high esteem by everyone from jam band fans (for his past ownership of The Wetlands Preserve nightclub in New York City and for creating the 2015 “Fare Thee Well” concerts featuring surviving members of the Grateful Dead) to musicians like E Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt, who compared Shapiro to perhaps the most famous concert promoter ever — Bill Graham — in promotional materials for his book, “The Music Never Stops.”
