Episode 71: Survivor Stories: Dave Dec 08, 2022

Show notes

Well folks, according to Ryan, this very well could be the mother of all Survivor Stories. Dave appeared in the often referenced by us Vh1 series “100 Most Shocking Moments in Rock and Roll” where he gives a brief jail house interview. Why was he in jail? Well, it’s because he got arrested at Woodstock 99. Other highlights include naked roller blading, toxic waste baths, and being front row for Korn.

Episode 70: Survivor Stories: Brad Nov 28, 2022

Show notes

Our survivor this week is Brad. Brad worked at Woodstock 99 as a runner for Pilar Law, Michael Lang’s assistant and was charged with such duties as picking up Jimi Hendrix’s sister from the airport, delivering celebrity announcer credentials, and vendor checks. Brad had the most interaction with Michael Lang of any of our survivors and over all had a pretty positive take away. Good vibes in this story for sure!

Episode 69: Survivor Stories: Brett Katz Nov 12, 2022

Show notes

Brett wanted to be episode 69 in honor of Woodstock. We were happy to oblige. Brett was a bit of a cautionary tale. The phrase it’s a “marathon not a sprint” comes to mind. Fresh off a puppy love heart break, Brett was ready to dive head first into some new experiences. He also describes how Woodstock temporarily altered his psyche.

Episode 68: Survivor Stories: David Blaustein Part 2 Nov 03, 2022

Show notes

David Blaustein was such a joy to talk with, we had to break it into 2 parts. This episode focuses more on his work on the Netflix documentary Trainwreck. We also dive into his analysis and perspective on Woodstock 99 and its aftermath.

Episode 67: Survivor Stories: David Blaustein Part 1 Oct 25, 2022

Show notes

David Blaustein is a former entertainment correspondent and movie critic for ABC News Radio. He is featured in the Netflix documentary Trainwreck. David gave such a comprehensive interview, full of insights and a clear memory of the festival. There was so much to talk about, this will be a two part survivor story.

Episode 66: Survivor Stories: Nick Oct 13, 2022

Show notes

Nick is a Canadian Woodstock 99 attendee who seemed to have the best luck out of most of our survivors. Despite crowd surfing huge distances he always managed to meet up with his crew and managed to make it home in one dirt covered piece. He describes what it was like seeing hordes of Canadians flea the crowd to make room for Kid Rock fans as well as the difference between the George Clinton audience and the Korn audience.

Episode 65: Survivor Stories: Christian Sep 29, 2022

Show notes

This week’s survivor is Christian. Christian spotted himself in the Netflix doc and the memories started flooding in. He took a shower in the notorious shower stalls, got separated from his group and left the festival without his buddies, went to the raves, and smoked laced weed, on purpose. This is a classic Woodstock 99 tale that we are sure you will enjoy more than Christian enjoyed his time at Woodstock 99.

Episode 64: Survivor Stories: Jen and Amy Sep 21, 2022

Show notes

This is one of the cutest and best survivor stories we have heard. Two gals enter Woodstock in search of killer tunes and good times and they find both, and then some! Jen and Amy are lifelong friends who wanted to come on the show to tell the world about their amazing weekend and to show that despite the general narrative of Woodstock 99, it was possible for two young women to have an awesome time.

Episode 63: Survivor Stories: Tim Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

WARNING: This episode of Podcast 99 features a graphic description of sexual assault. Listener discretion is advised.

On the latest Survivor Story we meet Tim. Tim went to Woodstock 99 at the ripe age of 17 and spent almost the entire the time alone. He truly was a boy lost in a very grown up world. From witnessing what he believes was a sexual assault, getting bullied in the Limp Bizkit pit, and attending his first AA meeting, this is truly a harrowing survivor story.

Episode 62: Survivor Stories: Morely Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

Morely came down from Canada with his buds to enjoy the music at Woodstock 99. While they did enjoy seeing their fellow countrymen (and women) like The Tragically Hip and Alanis Morissette, they got more than they bargained for at the rave and the riots. Oh Canada, this is a good one!
