What happened? Was it just old, saggy hippie wannabes walking around with cell phones?
No, it was all ages, lots of young folks. I saw James Brown, Alison Morissette, Jewel, Brian Setzer Orchestra, Dave Matthews Band. It was fun the first day but conditions deteriorated fast.
I almost got pushed over in an outhouse while I was inside it. Some idiots thought it was funny to start rocking an entire row of them. I came running out with my pants not quite in place.
The organizers ripped off everyone on food and water, had substandard sanitary conditions, and no security. It ended in flames and major property destruction, with the NYS Troopers called in to restore order.
MTV was announcing live and they decided they were in enough danger to leave before it got worse.
I was only there during the day. I enjoyed myself, saw a lot of excellent eye candy, but knew I didn't want to be there at night.
That's a special guy standing next to me.
Peace!
