I have met Douglas Bader I used to go to school with his grandson, they lived a couple of miles up the rd from me.
Apparently the girl wasn’t at Woodstock 99.
Must have eaten at Taco Bell?
Finally…
Harbor Freight, of all places, has solved our most gripping problem, not famine, not war, not genecide…
I went to Woodstock '94. That was certainly the beginning of “profit-stock” as I recall pizza being $4.50 a slice and a large drink was like $9. I STILL consider that expensive today at the drive-in theatre!
But the vibe was different in '94. People were pigs, sure. But there seemed to be more respect / tolerance. Woodstock '99 was just ANGST and ANGER. And sadly many of the bands there perpetuated it. I am glad I wasn’t in attendance in '99… I would be embarrassed if I had been.
Phish festivals / gathering of the vibes / bonnaroo all have been much better than woodstock '99, even on their worst days… There was just a LOT of pent up anger there…
I recently watched the doc on it…glad I wasn’t there. I know they focused on the worst, but the worst didn’t look too hard to find.
I recently saw a documentary on Netflix or something which put it in a pretty bad light. Was it that bad?
Once I been to a pretty ‘famous’ Goa which is called psychedelic circus. It was the baddest and most fucked up festival I ever been too and I’ve been to a lot. everything that usually not happens on such kind of festival happened there. From someone being almost killed with an iron pipe over some drug money, to girls being tied up and put in the next cornfield for rape purposes, to mass brawl on the main floor with several broken bones, to handing out some rc chemicals as lsd which had some nasty effects on the people leading to medical problems almost every 5 minutes till people realized, to someone being way too high on acid and dissappearing in the woods for a week or so, to hippies being beat up by security… It was just awful and I left within 48 hours.
Weirdest thing was that I encountered the biggest human dump I will ever see in my life behind a fucking bush on the main road. almost like in that south park episode 
Somebody took the term “paint the town red” literally.
Been to quite a few shows in my time. -seen a lot of crazy shit.
Here’s one that doesn’t even make the top five:
My wife and I watched a girl casually puke w/o making a fuss at a show in SC. She was stealthy with a hand slightly covering her mouth as she quietly emptied the contents of her stomach onto the floor and the band played on. She finished her business and moved on after wiping her mouth with the back of her sleeve.
Less than 20-seconds later a barefoot girl passing by, slipped in the mess and almost fell. Rather than reacting as one might assume, with shock and disgust, she looked puzzled and lifted one foot gently and then slapped it back down on the floor with a thwack! Thoroughly amused she then preceded to dance a jig slipping and sliding this way and that before moving on her way.
My wife simply looked at me and I at her. WTF had we just witnessed?
