Netflix’s Woodstock ‘99 Documentary Shows Dark Side Of Festival

The three-part series is called......ummm......"Clusterf**k: Woodstock ’99." It premiered on August 3rd 2022. It showcased unseen home movie footage, commercial archive, and artist video. Along with that, a lot of local audio, video, and news coverage was featured. In the trailer you can spot a quick WKTV news clip.

“What caused the festival to explode into violence? Was it a product of late 90s societal dysfunction, fueled by entitled frat boys? Incitement by the aggressive music of headlining rap metal bands – Korn, Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine? Or the inevitable result of ruthless commercial exploitation by the festival organizers?”

The docuseries features interviews with many of the festival’s participants and artists, including Korn’s Jonathan Davis, Jewel, Fatboy Slim, Bush’s Gavin Rossdale, and the late Woodstock organizer Michael Lang. You can read more on this special that aired and shocked Central New York online here.
