Craziest part of the doc for me. Like if he said that back in 99 right after the concert it would still be fukked up but you could at least say he said some stupid shyt in the heat of the moment. But dude really had more than 20 years to reflect on everything and that’s the conclusion he came up with

In a 2 hour documentary showing people rolling in shyt and piss John Scher ended up being the most disgusting human being in the whole thing
:mjlol: Idk why he felt it was acceptable to get on camera and say that shyt in 2021 even if thats how he really feels

My Set
Limp Bizkit set was :wow:
You'll never see a crowd like that again






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

@ 3:50






I saw two women get their tittys grabbed during fred dust set. And I'm sure there was plenty more off camera. Thirsty incels fukked up their own environment

Reminds me back in college when my roommate, my homegirl and I stumbled on this Ice Cube concert at a small venue in Philly. Tickets were cheap so we decided to go. Dope show overall but this big ass White dude tried to start a mosh pit during Straight Outta Compton. Wasn’t a rock crowd at all so everybody was staring at him like :scust:

You must have been at the TLA on South St. :russ:

I might have been at that show. Clipse and Dogg Pound opened the one I went to

Crazy thing is everyone in LB NOT named Fred Durst actually had a legit musical background and was actually talented on their specific instruments. There was a point in time where none of them could stand Fred, and I’ve always wondered why didn’t they do a RATM/Audioslave move and form another band with a new frontman

Fred didn’t deserve the band he had :wow:

I'm surprised at some of the posts in here.

First off, white people have always been rebellious against authority. It starts when they're rebellious towards their parents at home, then at school. If they're teens and get stopped by cops they're disrespectful. They don't like being told NO...to anything. And short of murder the cops arent usually going to do anything to them, so their rebellion is only encouraged.

As they get older their hormones settle them down naturally, that rebellion still exists in their mind, but they don't have the energy or time to express it physically bc they have jobs, families etc . So then they start to latch onto ideologies. Someone is always trying to "take something away from them". That becomes the conservative cry, "they're taking our country away" , but then along comes the far right ideals of Trump(who actually is the king of I'm white, rich and do whatever I want) and voila, now you've created a moment where not only can they engage in their rebellion again, but they can take it to the extreme.

So yeah, while Woodstock ideals may have been liberal peace, the people there destroying were definitely the Trump supporters of now. And on top of this, you're putting aggressive music acts on the stages at a time when albums were selling millions of copies. Buying an album creates a different bond than streaming.

Brehs seem to forget though that most NY/Jersey brehs let non black people say nikka freely all the time.

Not condoning it though.
I don’t know about most…I know some ny nikkas that’ll knock ya teeth out for that shyt :pachaha:…. but there is/was a lot of jewish people young and old mingled into that hip hop industry in NY….j gave gweneth Paltrow a pass(albeit much later, but I know she wasn’t the first :martin:)….plus it was the beginning of hip hop becoming pop… or the standard music of the nation, so everyone repeating them meant $ signs to them rather than the disrespect it was…..

I wouldn't say there weren't any that broke through, rather that rock music was starting to no longer be the dominant genre. There are a couple bands that broke through (Linkin Park and Coldplay off top) buy it still ultimately died a slow bloody death. Most of the bands I listen to are indie or niche as fukk now.

Linkin Park was right around that period. Coldplay is not hard rock/metal. 70s you had Black Sabbath/Kiss/Led Zepplin. 80s you had Van Halen/GNR/Metallica/too many to name. 90s you had all the Seattle bands/Pantera/Nu metal. Post 2000 who has been a major rock artist? Nickleback? :mjlol:
