I did not realize he was 77.

Michael Lang, the concert impresario who helped conceive the landmark, generation-defining 1969 music festival Woodstock, died Saturday night at Sloan Kettering hospital in New York. He was 77.

Michael Pagnotta, a rep for Lang and longtime family friend, confirmed the promoter's death to Rolling Stone, adding that the cause was a rare form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

That's younger than I would have guessed. That means he was like 24-25 when he started organizing Woodstock.
