A lot of full band sets from Woodstock 99 are on YouTube. They are nostalgic for sure. The Korn set from the first night is insane. The music might be better or worse now, but rock and roll certainly feels less “dangerous” these days compared to back then.

Nope but in a round about way got caught up in Bonnaroo 2002.

I saw Korn 8 or 9 times over the years I was going to shows like that. The best show of their's I saw was in Atlanta when they toured with Rob Zombie. That was a hell of a show and was Zombie's first "stripped down" tour. He didn't even need all the theatrics to bring the place down.

I liked how the crowd turned into a waterbed when Blind kicked into gear.

I'm watching it now on YouTube. Jesus, I don't know how I was able to do festivals back in the day. Every year we'd go to two Ozzfests and a Warped Tour, and anything else we could make. I survived the first Bonnaroo, even if the memory is spotty. Looking at that many people now....no fricking way I could do it now. I'd be throwing elbows before the first song because the panic attack had set in.

Lots of titties to be seen on that set, too, which YouTube shows all....with no parental warning or whatever it is.

I can appreciate, somewhat, the music of NiN and Korn for their originality and some of the members' individual talents, but I just will never, for the life of me, understand how people can listen to that for long periods of time.

I hate pop country but at least I can kind of understand how people enjoy the cheeseball catchy lyrics.

I really don't have a favorite genre of music and will give anything a shot, my playlists are all over the place. So it isn't me having a closed mind at all. I've got a buddy that loved Korn back in the day and I would really listen to it and try to get it, but couldn't.

Rock is complete shite now. The 90s and early 2000s had such a great variety. Watching this doc really hammered that home.

Kids today really missed out on a great time of music. I feel sorry for them And I’ll say the 70s and 80s had great stuff too which was before my time. Today’s music just seems so bland.
