Woodstock 99: Peace, Love & Rage (2021)

 

I’ve been to my fair share of music festivals, so I’ve experienced what transpired at Woodstock 99 to a certain degree. But the sheer scale of disastrous events that occurred there is tough to beat. Glad I was watching how the trainwreck unfolded from the safety of my sofa.

Interesting to see the differing recollections from the viewpoint of fans, organizers, security, and musicians. A lot of blame shifting. There are some good lessons to be gleaned from this film for those considering attending an event with thousands of people; artistic, political, or otherwise.
