E58: It's Way Worse Than You Think It Is!

Woodstock started as a symbol of peace, love, music, and community, but Woodstock 1999 was a completely different beast. Somehow, it ended with riots, fires, overflowing porta potties, and a crowd so angry that the next morning looked like a war zone. This week, Jamie takes Karena through the unbelievable story of Woodstock '99, a festival that was supposed to bring back the spirit of the original Woodstock but instead became one of the biggest disasters in music history. From outrageous food and water prices to plywood crowd surfing, Limp Bizkit, fires, chaos, and a whole lot of greed, we're diving into what really happened and why everything went so horribly wrong.
