What a great story ☮️ Detroit Michigan here. I was there, and it was friggin amazing. Always remember, our memories are all intertwined. We all look up to the same beautiful Moon.
Born and raised in Saugerties New York, my parents property bordered the Winston Farm. So essentially this concert happened in my backyard and what an experience to say the least. It was fun and scary at the same time. I remember almost being crushed to death near the front mosh area for Saturday nights Nine Inch Nails show. Took almost 3 months to clean that farm up from all the mess that the concert people left, I remember dust for days after everybody left just thick in the air. 1994 was the best year ever, I don’t care what anybody says.
As an outsider at the time, my impression of the people of Saugerties was warm, welcoming and patient; even after the show was over. I cannot begin to express my appreciation for their tolerance. Yes, Winston Farm was a total wreck afterwards, I'll never forget the smell of all of the overheated Pepsi products everywhere. :) I remember that the truckloads of unused medical supplies were donated to the Rwanda relief efforts. That's another positive memory. The literal army of dump trucks on site in the heat...well, let's say that produced some rather unique odors.
I was up near the stage for NIN, and you could lift your feet off the ground for a second and not fall. We were all jammed in so tight together, but I still loved it.
Very true Woodstock 94 is not brought up a whole lot The one everyone talks about as far as any wood stocks from the '90s is Woodstock 99 And unfortunately it's remembered for all the wrong reasons but aside the incidents that happened at the show there was some great performances at that show.
Yeah Woodstock 94 captured way more of the essence of the original Woodstock 69; the location had similar vibes, the place got muddy, and a lot of people snuck in. Woodstock 99 was just it's own thing altogether. It was at a time when video games, movies, rock music, and rap all got really fucking violent and angry, and let's be honest, the later Gen X'ers have always been sketchy as fuck.
It was in a mostly concrete military base, it was hot the drinking water had shit in it. People talk all they want about the culture and music but the organizers really didnt think about how survival necessities like adequate shelter food and water would effect attendants they just saw numbers willing to pay money. Expect monkeypox at the next one
@@TheTofuGod yep. All these people went to other shows where stuff like this didn't happen. They picked that base so people wouldnt able to get in free and didn't think about what the surroundings would do to people.
I was there all day Friday and Saturday but left Sunday morning. There were rumors that the lots were flooding and so muddy that cars were getting stuck. I was at the green lot way in the back and had rented this tiny car. We made the decision to leave because we had to return the car and fly back to Florida for work on Monday . I definitely loved the experience and specially the music and just all the wacky stuff going around. I stuck mostly to the main stage so missed Green Day and Primus, but Cypress Hill, Joe Cocker, Crosby Stills & Nash, and Metallica was amazing, Nine Inch Nails…. Etc…etc…. Because of the constant wetness, my buddy and I started going hypothermic and enjoyed the Aerosmith show from inside the tent. Great times I tell ya!
Honestly, I had more fun at ‘99 because I went with a group of friends. We drove 24 hours strait from south Florida. True that it was hot as heck and the amenities were less than ideal, but we enjoyed ourselves, specially Friday and Saturday night. All the performances were amazing. The fires at the end were worrisome for sure and left a bad taste in our mouths and I was disappointed to learn of the abuse that was going on under our noses. We did see some craziness beginning Saturday night and more on Sunday morning with the tearing up of the art wall, but never expected mayhem during and after the RHCP closing performance. Quite an experience.
I still remember some of Woodstock '94 on the radio in the UK. I say some, because I spent the days at a mates house where he and his wife was hosting a listen party, and there was plenty of alcohol involved. Towards the end of the night I was a bit worse for wear. A mate who didn't drink recorded the days festivities on cassette tapes. VERY late nights in the UK too, with the headliners appearing in the early hours of the morning there. It was a fun weekend for me personally.
The mud smelled terrible and it was about 8" deep in some areas. I can still remember that smell. It was very hard to walk up hills because you would just slide back down. My shoes got sucked off and I went home barefoot.
😂 I was just telling somebody about that last night. I said imagine vomit, sweat, spit, piss, blood, and everything else, and we were literally bathing in it like it was the mud from the freaking dead sea rejuvenating us 😂😂
@Fran C my brother was there and he stunk to high Heaven when he got back home to Philly. My mom made him take off everything before he got back in the house; his 'mud' from Woodstock he brought home had to stay outside on the porch roof becauseof the smell. His friend Tommy had his photo in Entertainment Weekly magazine (remember that zine?) rolling up a Philly blunt 😂. My brother had a great time & I watched it on Pay-per-View. Good times & take care 🙂
People helped people on that hill.. anchored their footing in a line up the hill, and gave climbers shoves, all the way up. Somehow it worked. Not so much in reverse. Saw a friend carrying our gear down, struggling to stay upright. I wasn't carrying anything so she was overjoyed to see me 😄
@@fgcfgc4485 I still have the shirt I wore from the Friday to Monday at Woodstock 94. All the people camped around us signed it for me. I never washed it. It still has the mud on it.
I was there '94 (FuK '99.) They had plenty of toilets and water facilities. The south stage was a muddy mess (worse than the big stage.) Luckily, me and my crew got there early and set up camp on a pretty dry hill. The second day after it rained was a bitch getting around. My calves are still sore to this day. Overall good experience. Peace on earth.
My parents had bought an old school satellite dish that summer. I remember coming home on Friday night with my friend and going through the different satellites to find something to watch. We come across Collective Soul starting their set. We got the satellite feed of the show. The next day, pretty sure every kid in the neighborhood was in my basement watching it. What an awesome time
Trent Reznor: plays one of the most iconic sets of not only NIN's career, but 90's rock music in general. Also Trent Reznor: Yeah, we weren't very good.
Was there for all three festivals. being a teenager in 96 festival was epic and the musicians were fun. looking forward to the 2017 Woodstock. I would rank the festivals 94, 99, 69 and then 2017 so far. fun days ahead people.
@@sirnightengale4214 because the person is a stupid liar. There was no Woodstock in 2017 and if he was a teenager in 96, it would be pretty hard for him to have attended in 69, now wouldn’t it?
I was there. I was 17. It was amazing. The lack of food and water sucked, but at that age, it was easy to handle. It was related to the original Woodstock in name only. Does anyone remember "script"? Yea. Hahah what a joke. They ran out of the tokens and gave me a little slip of paper. Guess how many $8 Pepsi Clears that got me.... Still one of the best times of my life.
After Comeing Off G. Dead Summer 94 Tour, There Was About 9 - 10 Day"s Till Day 1, Bought My Ticket For $ 150.00 At Tower Record"s On Layfette On Great Jone"s, The Rain Kept The Calm, I Managed At Entrance Threw The Main Gate Friday Sun & Hot, I Got Under A Abonded At Time First Aid Tent That Filled Up Quickly & Left Us Be, & That Saved Us Threw Weather, Even That It Was 90 Degrees With 100% Humidit,Massive Farm Land Pond"s If Needed, Tom Hamilton Said It Best, At That Time Seen Dead 211 Show"s, Been To Over 400 Show"s, So Summer Tour Dead, Woodstock, & Came Home To See Stone"s Over In Jersey, Think 14th Or 15th.... & That"s Half My Year At 29 1/2 yrs Old... 1994, GREAT YEAR !!!!
I wish we can do it again, the right way. It’s on my mind every single day. there is no one who has the funds, who cares to do it again the right way. It’d be such a money grab for whoever put it together now.
Johnny Cash pulled out too because they wanted him to play on the south stage. Friday was only available to people who bought their tickets in package deals which included bus travel to the show. There was one north stage naked woman who sat on her boyfriend's shoulders all Saturday, she spent more time on the giant video screens than any one band. If you weren't there, you missed the 90s.
Totally remember seeing so many naked people, most I wish I never saw. Your comment brought some memories slipping through the "mud", losing shoes to the mud, human chains to climb 30 degree hills, paying $40 for a case of warm Busch beer, having almost all our booze confiscated, prior to the bus ride, the NO2 tank that woke me in the original parking lot on Friday morning( I think). Anyway, great comment, who knows, we may have crossed paths during that sometimes horrible, yet memorable event.
My favorite bit of Woodstock '94 will always be Billie Joe Armstrong getting into a mud fight with the crowd. The thing that drove me nuts, though, was that Mike Dirnt was up there in a nice white shirt but no one aimed at him "I WILL NOT BECOME A MUD HIPPIE!"
Woodstock 94 was pretty awesome from what I remember. I was not there but watched it on pay per view. I was 14 and getting into music big time with all of those great bands from that era. I slept over at a buddy's house the Saturday night of the festival and my friends parents ordered it for us on pay per view. We stayed up late watching it and I was totally blown away by NIN who stole the show in my opinion. I was a music connoisseur for life after that. I was lucky to have grown up during that great era of music and film. Woodstock 99 the tide had turned to close out the 90s and that first great wave of bands had fizzled out commercially to some extent or broken up. The 99 lineup was full of weaker copy cat bands and meathead rap/rock like Limp Bizkit for the most part.
Woodstock 99 by far had the better bands and the better lineup and was an incredible show. I was there with six people and I belong to a lot of Woodstock 99 groups and everyone that I've talked to all had a positive experience. I mean if you want to say Blind Melon is actually a good band to go ahead but they're trash. That's not to say there weren't plenty of good artists at 94, it's just that the 99 lineup blew the doors off of the 94 lineup
@@joshuablevins4340 I am not a Blind Melon fan. Woodstock 99 was a disaster. I'm sure it was high energy and fun based on the lineup especially the first couple of days But it also seemed very angry and compounded with 90 plus degree heat I can see why it ended on the note that it did. Since music taste is subjective it's kind of a non starter on debating about what lineup was better depending on individual tastes and what bands were important to you in your youth. Plus people tend to look at things from their teens and early 20s with rose coloured glasses and only remember the good parts.
@@joshuablevins4340 I wasn't there but as far as the lineup goes. I see good bands from both eras. I can see how the 2 could be compared when it comes down to the performance quality, but to compare any show, when it comes to musical preference or personal taste only comes from self-centered, and self-righteous assholes who need to obtain a higher sense of importance in life to make up for their lack of passion and diversity.
@@ManyLegions88 Thank you very much! About 3 years. I was going to check and get your permission first but I thought since I'm an adult and its a free country I thought why not just go for it and write my opinion.
I slept through Metallica 😐. I was just too exhausted to get up, I did hear them for a minute or two and remember thinking "they are tight as hell!, get up! get up! get up!!" but I just couldn't do it. #regrets
You and me both, I had seen Metallica at least 10 times prior, and I was so exhausted( at 21 years old), that I had no more energy to mosh( or stay up, even.) Dont regret it, though. Just slept through it.
We drove up from FLA and I'm so glad we did! Those 3 days were The most fun I'd ever had. Lots of people talk shit about this event but none of those people were there. Those of us that went know we were taking part in something great that we'll never forget. Someone in a comment mentioned the sexual assault of girls and that was not cool. I would never take my woman to something like that because it's too easy to get separated , then she's in danger and thats no joke. Not a couples event imo, but 2 guys fron Florida couldn't beat it anywhere else .
Nice quick take on Woodstock '94. Let me correct a few things, the comments about security concerns are based on "promoter fluff" and are completely inaccurate. How do I know? I was the one in charge of the Peace Patrol and can prove it (I still have the 2 loose leaf binders that contain the security plan and schedules). You do know that tickets were presales only, right? There were no official ticket sales at the event. The fences were a dog and pony show and were meant to come down by Saturday, we planned that well in advance. The only money to be made once the show started was in the vendor area, more people equated to more sales since the ticket revenue was already collected. Maybe that's the REAL reason the fence came down? :) Did you know about the rented Circus tents that the employees slept in off site or the small Army of Sate Police at the motel across the highway? Only one actual State Police officer was on duty onsite. Do you know what religious facility was used to ferry the acts in via helicopter? Yes, it was a religious compound and not an airport? :) NIN's performance had issues because the mud they rolled around trashed their gear and created a ton of "technical issues". Green Day was super cool to the security team afterwards and took responsibility for the stage drama.
@@rohan750 Short answer - People management. First, there was no public parking at the event site and you had to show a ticket to get on the shuttle buses. Second, there was a huge influx of attendees as it was and getting the ticket holders inside the compound was a big enough challenge. Ask yourself this, can you imagine trying to search for contraband and check the tickets of a couple hundred thousand attendees in a fairly short period of time? These were just some of the challenges that led to the decision that ticket sales were pre-show only. And yes, I'm well aware of the people that parked in "unofficial" locations. They can thank the local residents and the town of Saugerties for being so flexible during the event.
Some of you may have noticed that some of the Peace Patrol were on horses. We used horses to patrol the perimeter. Now here is the "super duper secret" about the mounted patrol. When someone needed medical attention (panic attacks in the crowd was a thing), we'd use the horses to make a path to the victim. People actually get out of the way when they think a horse will step on them. :) That's how we solved the problem of getting to someone in the crowd. The mounted patrol was based out of Texas.
I remember seeing stuff about woodstock 94 on MTV the weekend of the event, and I clearly remember seeing the person @3:05 eating mud and I guess celebrating it! I saw it then on MTV news, and reliving it now, on this video. That person EATING friggin mud, lol I wonder what the hell ever happened to them??? I hope they've had a good life.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video blast from the past cause I was there....RHCP with the lightbulb things was a never forget rock show thing the crowd was freaking out... try to find the OG documentary I had a VHS copy once haha
I always thought blind melons intro to no rain was pretty cool and set the tone for my mood and feelings about 94. I think it was an important thing to bring back Woodstock at that time. It's too bad a.i.c. and nirvana weren't there. There should've been more alternative bands honestly. It was a time where they ruled the world. More Lilith fair artists should've been there too.
I was only 9 years old! but damnit I love the 90s, growing up/coming of age in the mid-late 90s. I sure do miss it sometimes. Hell of a time to be alive! And young and living in America.. ✌️
You were two months old?! I don’t remember seeing any babies that small, but after a while, I don’t remember much of anything. LMAO except smelly piss & vomit mud 🤮
I wanted to go to this so bad. Being from California it wasn't possible and I was only 16 years old lol I bought the CD and watched it on TV. It looked like a good celebration of the first one. Now being 20 when '99 came out...that one was more doable but holy shit I'm happy I didn't make that trip lol total shit show lol This one should be talked about more. And having gone to things like Stage Coach and Coachella, it would be so rad if they did another one now with people who actually know how to out on a festival. Hearing about all the problems that ALL the Woodstocks had and then going to a festival like Coachella damn it is so well done and organized. I think '99 ruined the history of "Woodstock" and no one will ever try to do one again which is a shame.
Actually, Michael Lang tried to do Woodstock 50 in 2019, but it failed at every turn. Unfortunately, he died in January 2022, so someone else would have to take the reins if it is ever to be tried again.
I grew up in the 90s, and it was definitely a fast changing culture. But 97 was a big change in tv and music, comedy and even fringe entertainment platforms like Wrestling, as u went from Hulkamania to NWO & DX
@@kode-man23 well small changes happen over time. But the frequency and amount of changes happened so much, that from 94-97 it was a big shift. From all I've read in American history, I guess that the 60's were also like that.
WOODSTOCK 1994 WAS PEACEFUL BECAUSE THE MUSIC WAS SAFE, BUT WOODSTOCK 1999 WAS VIOLENT BECAUSE THE MUSIC WASNT SAFE, IT WAS ABOUT AGGRESSION AND POLITICAL INCORRECTNESS, IT WAS THE SIGN OF THINGS TO COME IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Woodstock 99 was one of the greatest experiences of my life and the hundreds of other people that I know of and have spoken to over the years that have attended feel the same way. I have not spoken to one single person who had a negative experience there
@@Twm532 no actually I don't. I just think it's shitty music and 90 percent of it is absolutely trash. Very rarely a positive message in the lyrics, no instruments or singing ability, very little talent, and not deep at all ( there are some exceptions).... I mean of course it's just negative music when you just listen to the lyrics is all the proof you need when 95% of the songs are either bragging about yourself, bragging about how much better you are than other rappers, writing about how much money you get, or how much money you have, or your cars or your jewelry or your clothes, bragging about how many girls you get, glorifying cheating on your significant other, glorifying violence and killing, and drugs. How is that positive music?
Wearing a dress on stage in '94 was not as groundbreaking as you might think. There is this big misconception that people are more open and progressive nowadays. I would say that the 90's were in fact more open and progressive then recent times. It was a time were individual freedoms peaked. Now we are much more tribal in our political views. If you step out of line just a tad as a public figure you are grouped with the most extreme end of the opposite faction. Back in the nineties the center was much stronger and people kinda agreed on some common ground.
I remember going to this and I think it was the second night we tried to get up close to the main stage for mettalica, we got about 1k feet from the front and the crowd was packed so tightly I remember I couldn't take a deep breath, then we made our way back after awhile, metallic was still playing and I remember there was a guy and girl who had there blanket and sleeping bags on the ground they were both laying down eyes open and blood shot music so loud you couldn't hear yourself scream and they weren't holding hands just there little fingers were touching while thousands of people surrounded them lol. I remember the vendors wouldn't take cash, you had to exchange your cash for "Woodstock" coins. Little pizza were like 20 bucks water was like 5 bucks, everyone was calling it greedstock. The mud people were disgusting. My favorite show was "the band" on the second stage. My shoes and sleeping bag were so caked in mud by the end I left them and walked out bare foot. All in all, it was a good time and people were cool. It was just super expensive, it just shows the hypocrisy of the hippie generation, then since they didn't maximize profits as much as they could they tried to again in 99 and it degenerated into a riot. Now as I am older I can see the stupidity of rock n roll and the music industry.
@@grandmakiller it rained all night the second night and the ground just became a quagmire. Alot of people started rolling around and sliding in the mud until there were large groups and they would come running through in a herd and if you didn't get out of the way you got covered in mud as well. I remember a group charging for the front of the main stage and the crowd parting like the red sea. The area around the port a John's were disgusting so that wasn't just mud they were covered with. There was a shower area near my tent but it was always so crowded even at night, crazy
The Band is the shit. They may not have been as popular as some of the other acts, but they should have been on the main stage, I’d say, even if it was an earlier set. I believe they performed at the 69 Woodstock. Should have been shown that respect. Just my opinion.
94 was the only really successful Woodstock, even with all of its problems. 99 was a nightmare, 69 was a mess, and that half asses thing they did in 88 isn't even worth mentioning. Let's face it, this is as good as it gets
I was there and what they mean by prohibited things they mean water and no stakes for our tents. Wish I would have know I could have brought anything I wanted and didn't have to pay. I'm glad festivals have gotten better since then. Just let people bring their own shit in.
it was the last good Woodstock show. 69 and 94. Anything after that was a corporate sell out mess. I mean, 94 came kind of close, but 99 was frat boys, kegs, and date rape vibes & It was horrific So those of us that were there remember a little more fondly because it felt more like the original versus whatever the fuck 99 felt like Definitely wasn’t safe for women. True that. for damn sure. I remember me and my friend Janine allowing this 16-year-old beautiful girl to sleep in our tent because her friends hooked up and ditched her and she woke up to two guys in the door of her tent Too many young girls never reported what happened to them and they couldn’t -for the most part. There wasn’t enough of anything to accurately report such a crime. They were more concerned with making sure that we purchased their five dollar water bottles and $10 hamburgers versus paying attention to what was really important i.e. the safety of thousands of under 21 year old kids. So your comment is sadly accurate. This will always be infamous.
Woodstock 99 was a disaster because just five years later after 94, the angst nu-metal scene had taken over and the Seattle sound/grunge movement’s peak had already come and gone. It just wasn’t the same. And it’s pretty obvious looking back on it now.
@@fgcfgc4485Woodstock 99 definitely is the reason why there hasn't been another Woodstock since then especially the incidents that happened that that show I heard about what happened what the women I can't say the actual word here in the comment section because TH-cam will pull my comment section but you know what I'm talking about had those incidents didn't happen at Woodstock 99 they're definitely would have been another one but due to those incidents that's why there hasn't been another Woodstock in 25 years
@@4G63Txtrue nu metal became the new genre of metal that would take the world by storm yeah Woodstock 99 was a complete mess it just seems that's the only one these days that gets talked about more More than Woodstock 94 and the very first one from 1969 but what really annoys me is how limp Bizkit got blamed for all of what happened at Woodstock 99 it just seems like the media was looking to place blame on someone for what happened they had nothing to do with none of those incidents that happened at that show if someone really wants to blame anyone blame the crowd for what happened not the band.
Yeah, they weren’t. They wanted them desperately. But by that time after what happened in Rome, they dropped out of Lolla & much knew it was kaput for anything until Kurt got his act together. Sadly, we know how that ended.
We knew that back then, it was a bit hypocritical but it was the most amazing experience of my life then, and very nostalgic. My mom never got to go in 1969 and still regrets it. We will never have anything like it again in the world we live in. Though I paid for my ticket, I wouldn't change it for anything.
I can't even imagine what it was like for my mother only seeing this on the news and possibly hearing from me if i called from a pay phone. When i called she told me they said on GMA or something that Metallica wasn't going to play. Thankfully that wasn't accurate.
Was there with friends and family. Standouts to me was Aerosmith(not even a fan), Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, Green Day and Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Too many others to list. Remember a lot of mud, free-flowing substances, nudity (both good and bad) and limited access to shower/bathroom facilities. The crowd, musical variety, and company far outweighed any of the nuisances. I made the mistake of showing up in a white Hard Rock shirt and light tan shorts. Then…asked some naked mud caked woman for a hug and she would not take no for an answer.

The south stage was a muddy mess (worse than the big stage.)
Luckily, me and my crew got there early and set up camp
on a pretty dry hill.
The second day after it rained was a bitch getting around.
My calves are still sore to this day.
Overall good experience.
Peace on earth.
The water and port-a-san's never faltered. For events like this back in the day, practically unheard-of.
My parents had bought an old school satellite dish that summer. I remember coming home on Friday night with my friend and going through the different satellites to find something to watch. We come across Collective Soul starting their set. We got the satellite feed of the show. The next day, pretty sure every kid in the neighborhood was in my basement watching it. What an awesome time
Nine Inch Nails performance was the definitive concert of the alternative 90's scene...
It was so long waiting for NIN ...he played in the mud ....
Watching it from the apocalyptic mud pit the north field had transformed into, was a surreal, unforgettable experience.
Trent Reznor: plays one of the most iconic sets of not only NIN's career, but 90's rock music in general.
Also Trent Reznor: Yeah, we weren't very good.
Was there for all three festivals. being a teenager in 96 festival was epic and the musicians were fun. looking forward to the 2017 Woodstock.
I would rank the festivals 94, 99, 69 and then 2017 so far. fun days ahead people.
Got very confused by this comment as it was posted 2 days ago but it’s talking about 2017. If you have a time machine can I borrow it haha
@@sirnightengale4214 well what year are you in my friend??
@@sirnightengale4214 sir
What do you know about plutonium and something called a flux capacitor???
@@sirnightengale4214 because the person is a stupid liar. There was no Woodstock in 2017 and if he was a teenager in 96, it would be pretty hard for him to have attended in 69, now wouldn’t it?
I don’t even remember a Woodstock ‘17. Was that an actual thing?
I was there. I was 17. It was amazing. The lack of food and water sucked, but at that age, it was easy to handle. It was related to the original Woodstock in name only. Does anyone remember "script"? Yea. Hahah what a joke. They ran out of the tokens and gave me a little slip of paper. Guess how many $8 Pepsi Clears that got me.... Still one of the best times of my life.
After Comeing Off G. Dead Summer 94 Tour, There Was About 9 - 10 Day"s Till Day 1, Bought My Ticket For $ 150.00 At Tower Record"s On Layfette On Great Jone"s, The Rain Kept The Calm, I Managed At Entrance Threw The Main Gate Friday Sun & Hot, I Got Under A Abonded At Time First Aid Tent That Filled Up Quickly & Left Us Be, & That Saved Us Threw Weather, Even That It Was 90 Degrees With 100% Humidit,Massive Farm Land Pond"s If Needed, Tom Hamilton Said It Best, At That Time Seen Dead 211 Show"s, Been To Over 400 Show"s, So Summer Tour Dead, Woodstock, & Came Home To See Stone"s Over In Jersey, Think 14th Or 15th.... & That"s Half My Year At 29 1/2 yrs Old... 1994, GREAT YEAR !!!!
no other Woodstock concert could ever be better than the original Woodstock festival of 1969!
I wish we can do it again, the right way. It’s on my mind every single day. there is no one who has the funds, who cares to do it again the right way. It’d be such a money grab for whoever put it together now.
I remember most of it to much fun being apart of history. Back in 94 my college years.
Johnny Cash pulled out too because they wanted him to play on the south stage. Friday was only available to people who bought their tickets in package deals which included bus travel to the show. There was one north stage naked woman who sat on her boyfriend's shoulders all Saturday, she spent more time on the giant video screens than any one band.
If you weren't there, you missed the 90s.
Totally remember seeing so many naked people, most I wish I never saw. Your comment brought some memories slipping through the "mud", losing shoes to the mud, human chains to climb 30 degree hills, paying $40 for a case of warm Busch beer, having almost all our booze confiscated, prior to the bus ride, the NO2 tank that woke me in the original parking lot on Friday morning( I think). Anyway, great comment, who knows, we may have crossed paths during that sometimes horrible, yet memorable event.
It’s so sad that Kurt couldn’t live long enough to see this event happen
Good one
Why he wouldn’t have done it anyway? Too corporate. Woodstock presented by Pepsi he would have told them off.
@@mahada9546 they were scheduled to play it
They were also scheduled to play lolapalooza and backed out of it.
@@JacksonTheEpic no they weren't at all. They didn't even release the line up until 4/20/1994
My favorite bit of Woodstock '94 will always be Billie Joe Armstrong getting into a mud fight with the crowd. The thing that drove me nuts, though, was that Mike Dirnt was up there in a nice white shirt but no one aimed at him
"I WILL NOT BECOME A MUD HIPPIE!"
Woodstock 94 was pretty awesome from what I remember. I was not there but watched it on pay per view. I was 14 and getting into music big time with all of those great bands from that era.
I slept over at a buddy's house the Saturday night of the festival and my friends parents ordered it for us on pay per view. We stayed up late watching it and I was totally blown away by NIN who stole the show in my opinion. I was a music connoisseur for life after that. I was lucky to have grown up during that great era of music and film.
Woodstock 99 the tide had turned to close out the 90s and that first great wave of bands had fizzled out commercially to some extent or broken up. The 99 lineup was full of weaker copy cat bands and meathead rap/rock like Limp Bizkit for the most part.
Woodstock 99 by far had the better bands and the better lineup and was an incredible show. I was there with six people and I belong to a lot of Woodstock 99 groups and everyone that I've talked to all had a positive experience. I mean if you want to say Blind Melon is actually a good band to go ahead but they're trash. That's not to say there weren't plenty of good artists at 94, it's just that the 99 lineup blew the doors off of the 94 lineup
@@joshuablevins4340 I am not a Blind Melon fan. Woodstock 99 was a disaster. I'm sure it was high energy and fun based on the lineup especially the first couple of days But it also seemed very angry and compounded with 90 plus degree heat I can see why it ended on the note that it did.
Since music taste is subjective it's kind of a non starter on debating about what lineup was better depending on individual tastes and what bands were important to you in your youth.
Plus people tend to look at things from their teens and early 20s with rose coloured glasses and only remember the good parts.
You're self-righteous opinion is so meaningful! How long have you been working in the media field?
@@joshuablevins4340 I wasn't there but as far as the lineup goes. I see good bands from both eras. I can see how the 2 could be compared when it comes down to the performance quality, but to compare any show, when it comes to musical preference or personal taste only comes from self-centered, and self-righteous assholes who need to obtain a higher sense of importance in life to make up for their lack of passion and diversity.
@@ManyLegions88 Thank you very much! About 3 years. I was going to check and get your permission first but I thought since I'm an adult and its a free country I thought why not just go for it and write my opinion.
Woodstock 5 years later: "LET'S DO IT AGAIN! BUT ON A CONCRETE AIRFIELD SO NO MUD PIT!!! AND WE'LL CHARGE $5 FOR A BOTTLE OF WATER!" 🤑
Modern venues would laugh at those prices now because they mostly get away with charging 12$ for water and like 20$ for beer
"Guns & Roses turned down the offer to play because the event was too commercialized." 🤣 A band that gets every fifth radio spin.....ROFL
That just shows how commercial Woodstock became. Woodstock's peace and love theme was bs. Woodgreed is more like it.
I slept through Metallica 😐. I was just too exhausted to get up, I did hear them for a minute or two and remember thinking "they are tight as hell!, get up! get up! get up!!" but I just couldn't do it. #regrets
You and me both, I had seen Metallica at least 10 times prior, and I was so exhausted( at 21 years old), that I had no more energy to mosh( or stay up, even.) Dont regret it, though. Just slept through it.
I slept through the middle of their set as well. I was definitely awake for that encore. Best song of the set.
@@floepiejane what was the encore song ?
@@amr4336 So Fuckin' What
We drove up from FLA and I'm so glad we did! Those 3 days were The most fun I'd ever had. Lots of people talk shit about this event but none of those people were there. Those of us that went know we were taking part in something great that we'll never forget.
Someone in a comment mentioned the sexual assault of girls and that was not cool. I would never take my woman to something like that because it's too easy to get separated , then she's in danger and thats no joke. Not a couples event imo, but 2 guys fron Florida couldn't beat it anywhere else .
Nice quick take on Woodstock '94. Let me correct a few things, the comments about security concerns are based on "promoter fluff" and are completely inaccurate. How do I know? I was the one in charge of the Peace Patrol and can prove it (I still have the 2 loose leaf binders that contain the security plan and schedules). You do know that tickets were presales only, right? There were no official ticket sales at the event. The fences were a dog and pony show and were meant to come down by Saturday, we planned that well in advance. The only money to be made once the show started was in the vendor area, more people equated to more sales since the ticket revenue was already collected. Maybe that's the REAL reason the fence came down? :) Did you know about the rented Circus tents that the employees slept in off site or the small Army of Sate Police at the motel across the highway? Only one actual State Police officer was on duty onsite. Do you know what religious facility was used to ferry the acts in via helicopter? Yes, it was a religious compound and not an airport? :) NIN's performance had issues because the mud they rolled around trashed their gear and created a ton of "technical issues". Green Day was super cool to the security team afterwards and took responsibility for the stage drama.
Best free concert I ever went to
All I’ll say is the security at 94 seems to have done a better job than 99 lol.
why was there no official ticket sales? thats weird the media alwalys made out to many gate crashed the event then
@@rohan750 Short answer - People management. First, there was no public parking at the event site and you had to show a ticket to get on the shuttle buses. Second, there was a huge influx of attendees as it was and getting the ticket holders inside the compound was a big enough challenge. Ask yourself this, can you imagine trying to search for contraband and check the tickets of a couple hundred thousand attendees in a fairly short period of time? These were just some of the challenges that led to the decision that ticket sales were pre-show only. And yes, I'm well aware of the people that parked in "unofficial" locations. They can thank the local residents and the town of Saugerties for being so flexible during the event.
Some of you may have noticed that some of the Peace Patrol were on horses. We used horses to patrol the perimeter. Now here is the "super duper secret" about the mounted patrol. When someone needed medical attention (panic attacks in the crowd was a thing), we'd use the horses to make a path to the victim. People actually get out of the way when they think a horse will step on them. :) That's how we solved the problem of getting to someone in the crowd. The mounted patrol was based out of Texas.
Great show woodstock 94 my brother was there
Nine Inch Nails literally won a Grammy for the performance they thought was terrible.... love it.
I remember seeing stuff about woodstock 94 on MTV the weekend of the event, and I clearly remember seeing the person @3:05 eating mud and I guess celebrating it! I saw it then on MTV news, and reliving it now, on this video. That person EATING friggin mud, lol
I wonder what the hell ever happened to them??? I hope they've had a good life..
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody cared that a rock star wore a dress on stage in 1994.
Also born and raised there worked there got pictures of me building the stage lot of us were employed there good time and our lives
Was too young for ‘94 but was at Syracuse for ‘99 and that was freaking crazy and awesome and scary and unfortunate all in one.
That poor dog 😢

Great video blast from the past cause I was there....RHCP with the lightbulb things was a never forget rock show thing the crowd was freaking out... try to find the OG documentary I had a VHS copy once haha
Woodstock 69 might be the most popular and most likely one of the best in terms of having peaceful event.. Compared to 94 and 99 turned up as hell
99 gets talked about more than 69, but for opposite reasons. Hardly anyone talks about 94 at all, it's Woodstock's middle child.
@@RickyIcecubeslike Gen X is 😂
@@medicatedmastermind1879 No argument there. I escaped Gen X by 5 months.
I always thought blind melons intro to no rain was pretty cool and set the tone for my mood and feelings about 94. I think it was an important thing to bring back Woodstock at that time. It's too bad a.i.c. and nirvana weren't there. There should've been more alternative bands honestly. It was a time where they ruled the world. More Lilith fair artists should've been there too.
I feel like 94 was overlooked. I saw the documentary on Amazon about 94 and they totally ignored all the bad stuff that happened
I was 18 in 1994. Good times.
Sure isnt 94 anymore hey
I was only 9 years old! but damnit I love the 90s, growing up/coming of age in the mid-late 90s. I sure do miss it sometimes. Hell of a time to be alive! And young and living in America..

I don’t remember seeing any babies that small, but after a while, I don’t remember much of anything. LMAO except smelly piss & vomit mud 🤮
Sounds irresponsible to me.
I wanted to go to this so bad. Being from California it wasn't possible and I was only 16 years old lol I bought the CD and watched it on TV. It looked like a good celebration of the first one. Now being 20 when '99 came out...that one was more doable but holy shit I'm happy I didn't make that trip lol total shit show lol This one should be talked about more. And having gone to things like Stage Coach and Coachella, it would be so rad if they did another one now with people who actually know how to out on a festival. Hearing about all the problems that ALL the Woodstocks had and then going to a festival like Coachella damn it is so well done and organized. I think '99 ruined the history of "Woodstock" and no one will ever try to do one again which is a shame.
Actually, Michael Lang tried to do Woodstock 50 in 2019, but it failed at every turn. Unfortunately, he died in January 2022, so someone else would have to take the reins if it is ever to be tried again.
I was born in 97 but 94 and 99 seem like completely different decades
I grew up in the 90s, and it was definitely a fast changing culture. But 97 was a big change in tv and music, comedy and even fringe entertainment platforms like Wrestling, as u went from Hulkamania to NWO & DX
@@JoshToksPop85 I graduated in 95 and it was like 2 different decades... we went from Nirvana to NSYNC in the matter of a few years.
Literally 97 was the EXACT year when it changed haha.
@@kode-man23 well small changes happen over time. But the frequency and amount of changes happened so much, that from 94-97 it was a big shift. From all I've read in American history, I guess that the 60's were also like that.
I grew up in the 90's as well but I can't really remember a lot from it, just some small fragments, time goes by so fast.
This is awesome, congrats!
i was there. i scooped up a water bottle of mud from the mosh pit. still have it. it dried out, but it is still a piece of history.

WOODSTOCK 1994 WAS PEACEFUL BECAUSE THE MUSIC WAS SAFE, BUT WOODSTOCK 1999 WAS VIOLENT BECAUSE THE MUSIC WASNT SAFE, IT WAS ABOUT AGGRESSION AND POLITICAL INCORRECTNESS, IT WAS THE SIGN OF THINGS TO COME IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Exactly... the message + alcohol + drugs = not a good combination
Woodstock 99 was one of the greatest experiences of my life and the hundreds of other people that I know of and have spoken to over the years that have attended feel the same way. I have not spoken to one single person who had a negative experience there
Capitals are annoying
ah yes blame the music. I bet you think rap causes gang crime too.
@@Twm532 no actually I don't. I just think it's shitty music and 90 percent of it is absolutely trash. Very rarely a positive message in the lyrics, no instruments or singing ability, very little talent, and not deep at all ( there are some exceptions).... I mean of course it's just negative music when you just listen to the lyrics is all the proof you need when 95% of the songs are either bragging about yourself, bragging about how much better you are than other rappers, writing about how much money you get, or how much money you have, or your cars or your jewelry or your clothes, bragging about how many girls you get, glorifying cheating on your significant other, glorifying violence and killing, and drugs. How is that positive music?
Favourite band who played for me was primus
I don’t consider Woodstock 99 a complete failure.
7:50 That was a great prophecy for Woodstock 99, a city with no real law or organization, any thing could happen here.
Wearing a dress on stage in '94 was not as groundbreaking as you might think. There is this big misconception that people are more open and progressive nowadays. I would say that the 90's were in fact more open and progressive then recent times. It was a time were individual freedoms peaked.
Now we are much more tribal in our political views. If you step out of line just a tad as a public figure you are grouped with the most extreme end of the opposite faction. Back in the nineties the center was much stronger and people kinda agreed on some common ground.
I remember going to this and I think it was the second night we tried to get up close to the main stage for mettalica, we got about 1k feet from the front and the crowd was packed so tightly I remember I couldn't take a deep breath, then we made our way back after awhile, metallic was still playing and I remember there was a guy and girl who had there blanket and sleeping bags on the ground they were both laying down eyes open and blood shot music so loud you couldn't hear yourself scream and they weren't holding hands just there little fingers were touching while thousands of people surrounded them lol. I remember the vendors wouldn't take cash, you had to exchange your cash for "Woodstock" coins. Little pizza were like 20 bucks water was like 5 bucks, everyone was calling it greedstock. The mud people were disgusting. My favorite show was "the band" on the second stage. My shoes and sleeping bag were so caked in mud by the end I left them and walked out bare foot. All in all, it was a good time and people were cool. It was just super expensive, it just shows the hypocrisy of the hippie generation, then since they didn't maximize profits as much as they could they tried to again in 99 and it degenerated into a riot. Now as I am older I can see the stupidity of rock n roll and the music industry.
What were the mud people doing?
@@grandmakiller it rained all night the second night and the ground just became a quagmire. Alot of people started rolling around and sliding in the mud until there were large groups and they would come running through in a herd and if you didn't get out of the way you got covered in mud as well. I remember a group charging for the front of the main stage and the crowd parting like the red sea. The area around the port a John's were disgusting so that wasn't just mud they were covered with. There was a shower area near my tent but it was always so crowded even at night, crazy
@@f3stopmotion990 crazy.. so do you think any of them knew they were also covered in shit?
@@grandmakiller they must have known
The Band is the shit. They may not have been as popular as some of the other acts, but they should have been on the main stage, I’d say, even if it was an earlier set. I believe they performed at the 69 Woodstock. Should have been shown that respect. Just my opinion.
94 was the only really successful Woodstock, even with all of its problems. 99 was a nightmare, 69 was a mess, and that half asses thing they did in 88 isn't even worth mentioning. Let's face it, this is as good as it gets
I Was there man.
I was there and what they mean by prohibited things they mean water and no stakes for our tents. Wish I would have know I could have brought anything I wanted and didn't have to pay. I'm glad festivals have gotten better since then. Just let people bring their own shit in.
7:29
The promoters should've taken that under advice 5 years later.
No one even cares about this after the train wreck of woodstock 99
it was the last good Woodstock show. 69 and 94.
Anything after that was a corporate sell out mess.
I mean, 94 came kind of close, but 99 was frat boys, kegs, and date rape vibes & It was horrific
So those of us that were there remember a little more fondly because it felt more like the original versus whatever the fuck 99 felt like
Definitely wasn’t safe for women. True that. for damn sure.
I remember me and my friend Janine allowing this 16-year-old beautiful girl to sleep in our tent because her friends hooked up and ditched her
and she woke up to two guys in the door of her tent
Too many young girls never reported what happened to them and they couldn’t -for the most part.
There wasn’t enough of anything to accurately report such a crime.
They were more concerned with making sure that we purchased their five dollar water bottles and $10 hamburgers versus paying attention to what was really important i.e. the safety of thousands of under 21 year old kids.
So your comment is sadly accurate. This will always be infamous.
This one had a better line up imo, never liked that whole nu metal crap that came after.
Woodstock 99 was a disaster because just five years later after 94, the angst nu-metal scene had taken over and the Seattle sound/grunge movement’s peak had already come and gone. It just wasn’t the same. And it’s pretty obvious looking back on it now.

Woodstock 94 was in August. Cobain died April 5. How would they be at woodstock 94?
Yeah, they weren’t. They wanted them desperately. But by that time after what happened in Rome, they dropped out of Lolla & much knew it was kaput for anything until Kurt got his act together. Sadly, we know how that ended.
I was at 94. I remember being wet but having an okay time. Glad I skipped 99 for Phish!

17:48 Pepsi co. were paying people to hold up Pepsi bottles in the background of interviews... I guess the whole thing was commercialized!!
We knew that back then, it was a bit hypocritical but it was the most amazing experience of my life then, and very nostalgic. My mom never got to go in 1969 and still regrets it. We will never have anything like it again in the world we live in. Though I paid for my ticket, I wouldn't change it for anything.
I can't even imagine what it was like for my mother only seeing this on the news and possibly hearing from me if i called from a pay phone. When i called she told me they said on GMA or something that Metallica wasn't going to play. Thankfully that wasn't accurate.

Was there with friends and family. Standouts to me was Aerosmith(not even a fan), Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, Green Day and Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Too many others to list. Remember a lot of mud, free-flowing substances, nudity (both good and bad) and limited access to shower/bathroom facilities. The crowd, musical variety, and company far outweighed any of the nuisances. I made the mistake of showing up in a white Hard Rock shirt and light tan shorts. Then…asked some naked mud caked woman for a hug and she would not take no for an answer.
You totally forgot the band Lunch Meat!!
I think we all forgot them.
'A time when society was nowhere near as progressive as it is today?' That would depend on one's definition of the term 'progressive.'
this was the final moment when the 90s turned to shit musically.
Exactly, the first half of the 90s was great, and around 96 it was all downhill from there.
In 25 years people have changed from nice to stupid.
