Anybody catch this series premiere of a docuseries on HBO or stream it on HBO Max? I thought it was an interesting, albeit highly slanted against the aggro white male of the era, doc on the festival.
I was just starting high school at the time and was just finding my love of nu metal and all it had to offer, lol. I remember hearing bits and pieces of news come out about the festival but didn't know how crazy it got. Interesting to hear some of the stories and background from some of the attendees and performers.
The wildest interview to me was the promoter John Scher who took 0 blame for the who debacle and blamed alot of it on MTV and the media (some of it rightly so).
All in all a great documentary about Woodstock 99 and a little about the music and the large transition of it all as long as you can keep an open mind.
