This Woodstock 99 doc on HBO is wild

[tremonthustler1]

June 1, 1999 release date for napster

from buying 20 dollar cd to downloading music for free

i remember installing it on my parents desktop lol

That was fun. Downloading songs on my 9GB Gateway desktop on dial-up

10 songs at a time, some would be done in 10 minutes, others would take hours

when a song got to 90% and then someone picks up the phone and boots you off the internet and you get a transfer error

the struggle in that era
plus the whole Y2K ..We all thought the world was gonna end

limewire came right after napster a year later..the copycat began quick

Watching this now the New York Times dude summed it up, "This is a country who's music is basically forged in white people impersonating black people"

The nu metal era was that, took the soul out of rap and tried tried to make it corny white boy accessible. I wasn't even 2 years old yet by the time Woodstock 99 went on but that whole era was interesting to me looking back.

 

[Stir Fry]

Moby calling the whiteboy audience a bunch of troglodytes

 

[Stop_It_5]

Fred Durst copping pleas immediately after encouraging the filthy cacs to riot

 

[DarkmanX]

Did they show when my dog X killed it?

 

[El_Mero_Mero]

Just the thought that some of the same people going on Facebook rants today talking about how this generation has no decency were probably grabbing tittles, raping women and starting riots at this thing is crazy.

ding-ding-ding



Mad people that got lucky that their past is not being looked at in today's cancel culture era, because there weren't as many cameras and social media in 99.

I watch the Rage against the machine, limp bizkit, and korns performance faithfully

You straight up see that shyt happen and Fred tried to calm shyt down but it was too late they was bugging

 

[SadimirPutin]

Music festivals dont really look like great experiences to me and based on that trailer woodstock looked like literal hell

Help a breh out with a link

 

[Bickin Back Being Bool]

very dope watch

 

[YaThreadTrashB!]

Limp Bizkit set was
You'll never see a crowd like that again






During this chilli peppers performance is when they started setting shyt on fire

@ 3:50



​

That ground had to feel like it was moving during the limp bizkit set

 

[ISO]

That era feels like the last time cacs had juice

Columbine also happened this year

And the film American Pie came out

White boys seemed to have a very specific swag to them and counterculture they were following

 

[pickles]

Saw the documentary.

There is a lot of blame being thrown around, but to me this is just white people acting white.

When Columbine happened, people were like how could this happen?, hope it never happens again.

But now school shooting are just a regular thing. Violence is just a regular thing.


The kids that grew up on girls gone wild to the kids that are growing up on porn will be something that needs to be studied in the future. Did the whole incel culture increase or decrease?
