Even though I was only 6 years old at the time of Woodstock '99, I've always been interested in learning why exactly the festival failed so spectacularly.
Color me shocked that the root of all evil was aggressive white men and not the total failure of the event promoters to provide an adequate venue and supplies for attendees.
Going to a rock concert is a great place to let out your aggressions but when you're greeted with 100+ degree heat, no easy access to water or shade, and limited staff over a three day period, is a recipe for disaster.
This documentary felt like it was paid for by the Woodstock promoters to point the blame everywhere else but at themselves.
Side note, Moby is the second most pretentious interviewee in this doc right after New York Times journalist Wesley Morris.
