[music] v/a - Woodstock '94
Jun. 4th, 2004 02:59 pmAs a whole this is too fucked to talk about how, or speculate on why.
What gets me down is how its worst aspects seem dated only insofar as
they're distinctive... parts of culture are still bad, and bad in this
same way, today. This only feels ten years old when Salt'N'Pepa come on
or whatever.
The funniest way, though, that this resembles boxfuls of shitty mixtapes exchanged by people around me in college is that not only does Bob Dylan make an irrelevant, cred-lending appearance, but the box cover gets the name of his song wrong. Dude, you know, it's like, that "Highway 61" song.
Wait no but the most horrible part is a Woodstock functionary getting onstage to tell the crowd that they should behave more responsibly, in order to "prove those assholes wrong who said you didn't deserve your own Woodstock".
