Also, the original Woodstock wasn’t really about peace and love either. As alluded to earlier in this thread, it was an unmitigated disaster with probably about as many ODs and rapes as Woodstock 99. Only afterwards was it incorrectly romanticized as the hallmark of hippie culture.
The real winner was Woodstock 94. The forgotten festival. No controversy and no one remembers it.

That Green Day set was hilarious, with people throwing mud and jumping on stage. Especially the ending. Billy Joe "Hey everyone say shut the **** up and we'll stop playing, ready one two three" holds mic out "SHUT THE **** UP!!!!!!!!
"Okay, we're done, goodbye".
