I wish I went but I was only 7! Limp Bizkit was one of my first favorite bands and I've seen them four times, but I would love to see them in a festival setting. Every generation deserves to have their own Woodstock!
I agree that every generation deserves to have their own version of Woodstock. Any 3 day camping music festival is an experience no one should miss out on. Thanks for watching my story ✌️
I was there too brother. And I agree with you 100% on limp bizkit. They got shafted with the blame for everything that went down at woodstock 99 and I believe it messed there music career future up. And it was not there fault .. just like you said they played sat .... Sunday evening is when the chaos started and it was over high prices. Everyone had enough.
Yep, totally agree
Limp sux, they NEVER had a future.
I've watched both of these videos now. You sound very level headed and respectful. Thank you for your story and me and my husband appreciated you snapping the glow stick what a moment
Thank you for the compliment. Glad you enjoyed my videos . It’s been really fun sharing my memories with everyone. Thanks for watching ✌️
the prices are crazy to fathom. i’m only 21 but recently went to one of the biggest festivals in my home state Oklahoma, Rocklahoma was it and they still had water bottles that were cold at $1 a piece. even in 2022, amidst all the COVID stuff they still found a way. and of course free water that wasn’t the coldest but after seeing those prices in person, it’s nuts to imagine them even trying that in 1999. some of the food was outrageously priced but we brought sandwich stuff and made hamburgers one day. it’s such an awesome experience though, seeing you talk about collective soul playing shine while just hanging out in the tent is a very relatable feeling.
3 day camping festivals are so much fun, but can easily get out of control. Prices are always high at festivals but Woodstock 99 was gouging people who had no option but to pay their insane prices. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
I was a mere 2 months old when this amazing event was going on but watching all these documentaries and sets from that weekend makes me nostalgic in a weird way. I sure loved listening to your experience!!
Thank you, it means so much to know that you enjoyed my story ✌️
Just binged watched the Woodstock 99 docs and I came here to check out the fan memories. Yours is the best. Can’t imagine dealing with that heat and the smells, but what an experience
Thank you for the compliment. I’m surprised that there isn’t more TH-cam videos from attendees. It was a fun and miserable weekend but I’m super glad I was there. Thanks for watching my videos and taking the time to leave a comment. ✌️
I was not at Woodstock ‘99, I’ve just seen the videos and listened to the stories. I have thoroughly enjoyed your account of being there.
Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching my videos ✌️
Fantastic video. After having watched the documentary, it's fascinating to see Woodstock through the eyes of someone in the crowd. What a story.
Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching ✌️
I was only 12 during Woodstock 99, but this was right around when I seriously got into music. Me and my buddies had a rock band, and I absolutely loved Korn, LB, Offspring and Kid Rock 🤘
I would’ve done anything to be a few years older so I could buy tickets and go.
I had no idea at the time that I would be attending a music festival that would go down in flames and become a historical icon. It’s pretty cool to be a part of Woodstock history. Thanks for watching my story. ✌️❤️
I wasn't at Woodstock 1999, however I did go to Ozzfest 1999. Which some would say was better. Everyone has their opinions though I guess. I saw System Of A Down, Puya, Godsmack, Deftones, Fear Factory, Slayer, Hed PE, Primus, Rob Zombie & Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath had to leave the stage after about 55 minutes though due to Ozzy losing his voice throughout the set) It was an amazing day.
@@TheBridgesYouBurn sounds like a fantastic lineup.
I could listen to your stories of Woodstock '99 allll day long! I was 16 at the time and if I wasn't in the UK I'd have moved heaven and earth to be there! Subscribed and hope to hear more stories, thanks for sharing ✌🏻
Thanks for the compliment. I do have more stories to tell, thanks for watching ✌️
Thank you for sharing your story. Very interesting and you know it was a good concert when people are looking up footage and personal experience stories. 🎉
Yep ✌️😊
Kid Rock did indeed play after the Tragically Hip performance. Alanis Morrissette played just before Limp Bizkit. Awesome videos man!
Thanks so much and thank you for watching my videos ✌️
I love these videos, you should do more 90s concert retrospectives I would love to hear about more shows you saw.
Glad you enjoyed my videos. I will definitely be making more soon and appreciate your ideas. Thanks for watching ✌️
What a good story man. I’ve always been fascinated with Woodstock 99
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching ✌️
just finished the documentary and watched both of your videos! i lovedd them
Thank you so much. It’s been pretty awesome getting so much positive feedback on my videos. ✌️
Hey man I loved your stories and this video, I'm 19 and I would do anything to go back in time and go to Woodstock 99. Seemed like an amazing time even though there were a few negative things that happened. I subscribed and would love to hear more about the festival!
Thanks for the compliment. I’m thinking of making another video on W99 since I’ve had so much positive feedback on the first 2 videos I made. ✌️
thanks so much for sharing your experience! i'm watching you from brazil 🇧🇷
You’re welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. ✌️❤️
Thanks so much for sharing!! Very cool to hear a personal experience, I love how you tell stories and explain things! It'd be cool to hear about your other concerts you went to in the 90s!
Thanks for your kind words. I have a few ideas in the works for upcoming videos. ✌️
Love these stories. I was only 3 at the time but I wish I could’ve been there 😂
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed them. ✌️
I absolutely loved hearing your stories man! I was only 11 at the time and I remember seeing some stories on the news painting the whole event in a pretty bad light. I feel the Netflix documentary did that too. While there were some negative things as you mentioned... Damn what an experience it must've been! Your Collective Soul moment sounded epic. If I could turn back time and if I was a bit older at the time, I'd be there in an instant. Even with knowing all the challenges. Thank you so much for sharing this.
You’re so welcome, thanks for watching my videos ✌️
Enjoyed hearing of your experience at Woodstock 99 👍
Thanks for watching my videos, it has been fun sharing my experiences at W99 ✌️
Love the first hand account story! thanks man!
Your welcome, thank you for watching my story and leaving a comment. ✌️
Thanks for mentioning Collective Soul Shine. I hadn't heard this song till now and just watched the Woodstock performance - incredible! th-cam.com/video/sDDUU1Y7Njs/w-d-xo.html
@@TimeMappedExplorations that’s awesome 👏
just hearing you talk about this is taking me back to that weekend ,good video man and hope to hear more about Woodstock '99!🤘🖤❤️
Thanks for the compliment ✌️
I enjoyed hearing your story's of 99 I saw the ppv live as it aired as a kid and was blown away
Thank you. Watching the ppv from the comfort of home would have been better. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
Also great description man. Felt like I was there could visualise it all 🤘
Thanks for the compliment. I’m planning another little Woodstock video soon. ✌️
We all knew that we were about to experience something that we would never forget.
Yep, wish I could do it again. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
Awesome videos man! Such a great dimeaner and mannerism for storytelling as well!
Thank you so much for the compliment, I’m glad you enjoyed my videos. I hope to make more storytelling videos soon. ✌️
Woodstock 99 🤘🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸
To Paulie The Wog. To answer your question Mike Ness is the singer for Social Distortion. Love watching your videos. Quite the story!
Ohh okay, I didn’t realize that. Thank you so much for watching my videos ✌️
@@PaulieTheWog yes sir
That shine story is so awesome man
Thanks, it was a real moment ✌️
@@PaulieTheWog would definitely watch more concert story content or anything music related
Clinton played both stages, they played their scheduled set to headline the West stage. The Thursday before the festival started was a pre show, and Clinton played the rave stage on his birthday. Great for me cause I got to see him Thursday, and Korn and Bush on Friday night
That’s awesome, I did not know that. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
have you gotten in touch with Podcast 99? they are a group of guys who have a podcast all about woodstock 99. you would be amazing to be interviewed by them! they go into so much depth on the festival- even if you dont reach out to them its a great listen!
I will have to check it out. I would love to hear more Woodstock 99 stories. Thanks for watching my video. ✌️
Hell yeah. Part 2. Thanks
😂🤣😂🤣 your welcome. Thanks for watching again ✌️
Right!? F yeah, storytime from a real one
@@PaulieTheWog 🙇♂. You have the gift of storytelling. Paints a great picture!
@@evandelgadillo yep, he doesn’t talk to fast like he’s gaked out. Good storyteller.
i went to a NASCAR race one time in 1984 and the basic hotdogs were $7 and a large Coke was $6, they get you inside these places and know they can charge anything.
Not much you can do but riot 🤣😂🤣😂 thanks for watching ✌️
Korn set must have been amazing but I also love the Bush videos from Woodstock looks like they killed it. But I’m sure the crowd was worn out from korn.
Bush was perfect to bring the crowd energy down a notch after that epic Korn show. Thanks for watching ✌️
Your videos are very intriguing!
Thanks for watching ✌️
Great video Bro, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching my stories ✌️
Way to fly the Canadian flag during the T Hip set. Take off aye. The T Hip was the only band I would have wanted to see but I was 29 in 1999. Moved to Vermont in 1990 and was introduced to the T Hip right off they are up there with Rush and Triumph.
They’re truly an iconic Canadian band. Thanks for watching ✌️
I saw Sugar Ray @ NASCAR in Phoenix in like 2017. He was drinking Jameson @ 10:30 in the morning. He actually sounded surprisingly good. I also saw Everclear @ NASCAR….lol.
The Korn performance at 99 was legendary. I love Bush(saw them in 2018 front row far right for free with my father…..(check the only video I have here)
They should have picked a different band to follow Korn! Hell, that should have wrapped the night!
The Kid Rock performance is considered awesome @ 99.
I’m not a fan of ICP but I would have liked the 99 show.
That’s awesome, nineties bands rocked it ✌️
2 Fantastic videos! Really enjoyed listening to your experiences! What was the best performance you saw over the weekend?
Thanks for your kind words. The best performance I saw was Rage Against the Machine Friday night with Korn. Thank you for watching my videos. ✌️
haha thats me at download fest last year. the hammer man. funny thing is it wasn't even my hammer haha
When you have something that everyone needs it’s amazing how popular you become. ✌️❤️
Creed did play on east stage they were before chili peppers
You are correct, I definitely screwed up the order. I really should have refreshed my memory before I made the video. Thanks for watching ✌️❤️
I would've wanted to see KoRn, Vertical Horizon, and Counting Crows the most. ICP's set would have been fun too but I'm just not into rap music much at all.
I wasn’t into rap music then either, but I kinda wish I had seen the ICP set. ✌️
so collective soul switched sets with ice cube. So ice cube played on the saturday and collective soul were the 4th headliners on the west stage. Chemical Brothers headlined the west stage on the saturday
I didn’t know that they switched sets, interesting 🤔
@@PaulieTheWog so it was really hot on the friday and sunday as well? Those prices for food are crazy 12 bucks for footlong with no meat thats insane. and was it was the water more if you wanted it cold?
@@rohan750 it was crazy hot all weekend. All beverages including bottled water were $4.00 U.S. or $6.00 Canadian. ✌️
I wanted to go to Woodstock '94, but just couldn't afford the tickets and blah blah at the time. Watching it on TV, and the aftermath... looked like a really fun time. Why not do another one? It's odd, how much changes over a 5 year period. The music and attitude of the kids... I watch the footage sometimes and I think 'Ok, these are not they type of youth I identify with.' I've been in mosh pits before, but nothing dangerous like that. One false move and you'll be trampled by people, many of them, that simply don't care. The whole' attitude, Girls Gone Wild and take what you want if you can get away with it blah blah attitude... The '99 one had all the ingredients of a distaster. But ultimately... the incompentant Michael Lang is to blame.
Yep, I couldn’t agree more. It was a weird out of control college party vibe. It’s strange that I’ve only been to 2 three day music festivals and both ended in a very similar way. Thanks for watching my story. ✌️❤️
35:38 As someone that’s into both bands, that would be an incredibly hard choice.
It was a weekend full of hard choices. Thanks for watching ✌️
I wish I was there so much
It was a challenge but amazing. ✌️
@@PaulieTheWog I hope to go to a big one like that soon but until then listening to stories of is dope
@@Kai-ol7zb any 3 day camping music festival is a great time, everyone should go to one at least once. ✌️❤️
@@PaulieTheWog fr
Definitely had to come for the part two! 🎉 What was your absolute favorite act-that you got to watch-out of the 3 days!? Also, did you go to the night raves?!🤣 (edit, you answered my rave question in the vid!)😅😂
I saw bush & AIC live last summer and Gavin was amazing!!!
My favourite was Rage, I skipped the rave hanger (seemed unsafe with so many intoxicated people). I’ve seen Bush 3-4 times back in the day. ✌️
That’s amazing!! Loved hearing your stories!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!
@@Amberjeska1 you are very welcome. It’s been amazing sharing my story with so many people. Thank you so much for watching my videos. ✌️
i remember of sugar ray aerosmith and foo fighters cancelled
I didn’t know the FooFighters had been booked to play but I do have a pamphlet somewhere that had Aerosmith listed to play. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
Yes, James Brown was first! I remember being so disappointed that Sugar Ray wasn’t there.
I would rather see sugar ray over James Brown for sure. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
Are you a fan of Mudmen? They are probably my favorite Canadian band.
Naw, I never really listened to their music.
Sugar Ray backed out literally a day or two before the festival. I think Mark had a viral infection
I wonder if they regret missing the show. They were scheduled to open the festival. Thanks for watching my video ✌️
my favorite acts were...Alanis Morrisite, Metallica,Megadeth,Rage,Korn and Red Hot
We have similar taste in music. Thanks for watching ✌️
Your welcome. Like you said I checked out Red hot instead Megadeth because I never seen Red hot but Megadeth put on an amazing show
And dude I believe I'm camped really really close to where you were camping. I mean I didn't see my tent in your video. But I swear we were camping neighbors and he'll we might of even talked to each other. But I can't remember. Meet a bunch people . And don't mean to correct you but creed played on the main stage not the west stage
We might have been camping neighbours, it’s not out of the realm of possibilities. I never saw Creed play so I’m not surprised to be wrong about what stage they played on.
On the drive into Woodstock we were sitting on the hood and roof of the beater car I drove and the party began. Lol
It was so awesome and the people of Rome were super friendly. Thanks for watching ✌️
@Paulie The Wog Now that I think of it....I remember everyone in town was hanging on their front lawn selling burgers and beers ect....I came from CT I think the ride from the south didn't take as long as coming in from the north I remember a couple hrs to get in 4 to 8 hrs is way longer than I remember the key is I remember......not much .....I was very high all weekend and not just grass back then......good times though...for sure
@Paulie The Wog My faves where.....Kid Rock, Wyclef ,Korn, Godsmack,Mickey Hart and the space Drum, Also RHCP, Rage and the Biscut where epic..... I saw Rage with wu tang before Woodstock. Good music for sure......People to blame where the corporate greedy mother fers
I think Sugar Ray had to pull out due to the lead singer being sick so they didn't play
That’s what someone else said too. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. ✌️
Al green pulled out so WIllie played a much longer set
I wish I had seen Willie. ✌️
You survived the weekend on corn, lettuce and cheese lol👍
Pretty much, it was a lot of corn. 🌽 thanks for watching ✌️
Can't believe you never heard of Al Green! You must be young, do yourself a favor and look him up, he was only one of the greatest R&B soul singers of the 70s
I will check it out. Thanks for watching ✌️
sevendust were on west stage before collective soul
I was probably trying to stay hydrated and out of the sun during their set. I remember relaxing in my tent during Collective Soul. ✌️
The footlong lettuce and cheese sub for 12 bucks in 99 is outragous. Imagine charging someone 22 bucks for a lettuce and cheese sub today 🤣🤣🤣
All of the food vendors were so over priced. The corporate greed was abundant and definitely played a part in the festivals downward spiral. Thanks for watching my story. ✌️❤️
@@PaulieTheWog I was unfortunately a bit too young. I only was 7 in July of 99. I did go to the Mayhem fests but it was nothing like thst festival lol
Also have u listen to the podcast podcast99 if not it may be worth a listen
I’ve heard about it but haven’t listened to it yet. ✌️
Marg mcgrath was sick that day so sugar ray pulled out
James Brown was probably a better opener than Sugar Ray anyways. Thanks for watching my story ✌️
Hearing about thrm complain about a $8 burger really puts into perspective how bad inflation is nowadays
Thats a decent deal anywhere now
What was a rip off in 1999 is considered a bargain price today. Thanks for watching ✌️
@@PaulieTheWog thank you for your great stories and helping us paint a picture in our heads.
You are very welcome 🤗 ✌️
KORN ON THE KOBB POOP IN THE PORT A POTTY
😂🤣😂🤣 yep, thanks for watching ✌️
Yeah woodstock 99 wasn't all what the media shows you or tells you. W.S.99 wasn't all bad like they show you. There was alot of good times and experiences. It was 90 percent good with 10 percent bad. And well said brother u summed up ws 99 perfectly there at the end
Thank you ✌️
You should come down to daytona Beach and check out Rockville Music Festival. It's the closest festival experience I've found that I can compare to my woodstock experience. But you have to camp at the festival so u can come and go as you please. Don't do the daily tickets with out camping at the facility or else you are trapped inside the venue all day and if u leave. You won't be able to re enter.. .... it's a good time 4 days of music 12:30 - to like 11 or 12 each day.
@@cookie819series sounds like a fun festival and being in Florida is even better. Next time I plan a trip to the States I just might look into it. ✌️
bet alot of drugs got in past the security, definitely did not help the outcome
I bet your right. Thanks for watching ✌️
Dam I could write a book on the very first Wood Stock, all the rest a wanna be and a money thing everything now days have WS to try to pump it up, there is and will never be other WOODSTOCK SEX DRUGS AND GREAT ROCK AND ROLL.
O ya I smoked dope with jimmy drank wine with Janis.
I would recommend telling your story here on TH-cam. I’ve had a very positive experience telling my story. Thanks so much for watching my video and commenting. ✌️
@@altered148fiat That’s amazing 🤩
