Feels weird dropping$200 on 20 CDs in the year 2021, but here we are. Pretty pumped.

Woodstock 94 may have wounded the music festival as we knew it but Woodstock 99 killed it.

The Tedeschi-Trucks Band's Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs show from a few years' back is out and it's really good, if you're into that sort of thing.
Still my favorite Clapton thing, even if he's a racist ******.

Disagree. You just gotta know where to look, imo.

There's a limited documentary series on either Amazon Prime or Netflix now called This Is Pop, and one of the episodes deals with the growth of the festival scene. Starting in the UK with Glastonbury, through Monterey and Woodstock, and then ultimately the dreadful 90s Woodstocks. And how the industry responded to the mini-death of destination festivals with the creation of touring festivals like Lollapalooza, Ozzfest, Warped, Lilith Fair, etc.Woodstock 94 may have wounded the music festival as we knew it but Woodstock 99 killed it.
I've been to exactly one (1) Coachella (whatever year it was Radiohead first played), and it was pure misery; even worse than the one ComicCon I've been to. Bottlerock Napa is pretty great, because it's in wine country and so has a culinary component to the weekend.

Bought a concert ticket for the first time since Covid started. Mongolian metal band The Hu will be playing the Carnegie of Homestead Music Hall in September. Never been there for a show before.

About as big as an improvisational free jazz musician can be,I guess.@Gaucho, was Hans Reichel big in Germany?
I had not heard of him before today, tbh.

"Ridiculousness" killed the video star, or at least killed it enough that MTV didn't even acknowledge the 40th anniversary on their twitter feed today.

I watched the Woodstock ‘99 documentary on HBO today. It’s hard to describe to my kids the cultural force that MTV was for the first 20 or so years of its existence. Just a huge influence on what got airplay, style, whatever. Now it’s kind of an afterthought in the cord-cutting generation, and has been for years.
I was already out of college and the ‘99 show was off my radar, not that I would’ve wanted to go to see that lineup. But what a **** nightmare that weekend was. Let’s tie the hippies/flower power ‘69 show with nu metal and angry music like Limp Bizkit, Korn, RAtM, Metallica, Megadeth. Let’s put it in the middle of an abandoned Air Force base tarmac in the middle of July. Not enough water, no trained security, expensive food. It amazes me that only one person died.
I honestly haven’t thought much about Fred Durst in 20 years. Didn’t much care for him or his band back then, but I noticed he was cropping up in social media this weekend. Evidently, Limp Bizkit played at Lollapalooza this weekend.
Fred looks like an extra from the Beastie Boys sabotage video:
And here they are at Woodstock 99:
The nice thing is not a cell phone in sight. And very few tattoos on the concert goers, which struck me as odd.
