Woodstock '99 was supposed to celebrate the 30th anniversary of 'peace, love and happiness.' Instead, the Rome, New York festival earned the infamous distinction of 'the day the Nineties died.' There were tons of contributing factors that made the fest the anti-Woodstock: Organizers trying to wring every last dollar from festivalgoers from exorbitant ticket prices to costly water bottles, a festival site built atop hot tarmac in late-July heat, a poorly curated and scheduled lineup and an angry, aggressive crowd that left a charred festival site and sexual assaults in its wake. We revisited the disaster at Griffiss Air Force Base to break down the 19 worst things that happened at Woodstock '99. The Water Problem With about 220,000 people in attendance and another 10,000 working the festival, Woodstock '99 temporarily made the festival site the third most populated city in New York state. Now imagine turning off that city's water supply. With temperatures hovering from the high 80s to, in some accounts, hitting the 100s, water became a necessity.

Unfortunately, most festivalgoers didn't heed the warning to bring an adequate supply themselves. When people went to purchase water, they were met with a $4 price tag per bottle. There were some free fountains, but the lines to use those often resembled a Disneyland ride. Some were smashed in frustration, causing minor flooding in the area.

The situation was so bad that, after the festival, lawyers for some festivalgoers threatened to sue organizers for negligence. Hot Tarmac If the late-July heat was absorbed by greenery like at most fests, the temperature wouldn't have been as much of an issue, but much of the Griffiss Air Force Base was tarmac and concrete — materials the sun's rays just bounce off of. On top of that, there was a 1.5-mile walk between the festival's two main stages, so festivalgoers had to trek across these boiling runways in upper-80s weather. That halfway through the weekend, 'More than 700 had been treated for heat exhaustion and dehydration.' Deactivated hangars provided some of the only shade, so huge crowds gathered at the 'Emerging Artists' stage and had to endure sets by artists like Bijou Phillips simply to escape the sun.

Performing on the East Stage on Friday night before George Clinton's Parliament/Funkadelic, ICP was the first act to incite the crowd 'by throwing $100 bills into the audience and watching gleefully while a melee ensued,'. Considering how expensive water was at the fest, and how personal pan pizzas were $12, it's not surprising those Benjamins created such a ruckus. Kid Rock's Recycling Program While much of the chaos at Woodstock '99 came on Saturday evening, Kid Rock planted some seeds of aggression during his early-afternoon set. Sandwiched between slots by the Tragically Hip and Wyclef Jean, Kid Rock took to the stage and,, 'demanded that the kids pelt the stage with plastic water bottles,' perhaps making a statement about the high price of hydration.

Codec Storex Mpix 457 Hdmi To Dvi. The horndog ratio in the Woodstock '99 crowd rivaled only that of your local Hooters. Whenever a woman walked onstage, whether to emcee or perform, they were immediately greeted with demands to 'Show your tits!' When Rosie Perez took the stage to introduce DMX, the crowd shouted their request, and the actress dropped probably the funniest, most memorable line of Woodstock '99: '$3.99, Blockbuster, go rent Do the Right Thing.' Dave Matthews: Hornball The amount of flashing in the audience during the Dave Matthews Band's set inspired their namesake singer to remark, 'Today, there's an abundance of titties.'

Yes, Dave Matthews said that out loud, into a microphone, in front of thousands and thousands of people. Somehow he topped the ridiculousness of the 'Too Much' lyrics: 'Ooh, traffic jam, got more cars than a beach got sand.'
