Just done watching this documentary. It was a good documentary. I remember the story about Woodstock 99. They lucky didn't have Eminem there :wow:

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

And they had songs like ‘Pretty fly for a white guy’ and a load of soft rock bands who were blowing up at the time.

No, but they were the spark that created it
Their more alternative like Pearl Jam


Public Enemy/Anthrax "Bring The Noise Metal Remix" is the spark that set it off. Plus you had Faith No More/Mike Patton rapping over Metal/Rock music too.

As far as RATM being nu metal.. I'd say they were it's just that Korn became the band that defined the nu metal "sound" so it's easy to remove them from that whole movement because they had their own unique sound as opposed to most of the bands that came after Korn.

I can deal with a one-day concert or a concert on two separate days (I've gone to Made in America and the Roots Picnic a bunch of times) but yeah, can't deal with that overnight camping shyt
no social media back then..no one was trying to look cute for the camera lol

I like festivals that have glamping options so locked off private camping with security, tents with comfortable beds, nice shower and clean toilets makes a hell of a difference

waking up, being able to have a proper shower before going to watch acts is
:banderas:

And when you leave the private camping areas and see the squalor in the other parts especially the toilets

I remember at one festival. a girl got wasted and was crouching over the toilet and one of her legs slipped in her friends were trying to calm her down as she was hysterical.

:picard:
