Took Me Years To Recover

I watched this Red Hot Chili Peppers meet James Corden karaoke video after last night’s viewing of Trainwreck: Woodstock ’99. I’m still having tremendous difficulty with the footage between 10:45 and 12:15. On one level I admire Corden’s bravery; on another I feel embarassed for the poor guy. I don’t know what to think, but I love the front-yard wrestling sequence.

I watched the three Trainwreck episodes in one sitting — 9 pm to midnight. I’m sorry but most of the people who attended the original Woodstock festival were more spiritual or centered or gentle of manner or something along these lines; many of the kids who attended Woodstock ’99 were animals, or at least behaved like same. That youngish bearded guy said that Woodstock ’99 was plagued by greed and cluelessness, but mostly greed. Exactly. The huge bonfires at the end were fairly awesome, I have to say. But the heat, asphalt, garbage, contaminated water and “shit mud”….good God. I’m almost sorry I didn’t attend. Fred Durst (now 52) and Limp Bizkit obviously didn’t help matters.
