disc one rlz!Saturday, September 13, 2003
well....woodstock is consider as one of the biggest music festival ever beside rock in rio which also hold hundreds thousand of crowd and i think woodstock are famous for the rock show
so the disc one is fill up with that
the second disc (which is worth buying) i never like it, it has band like chemical brother,jewel and stuff like that
the only crap thing on disc one is DMX,its a stupid rap just like 50 cents, put a simple music beat and mumbling something unclear, well let's forget about that.metallica put strong performance with creeping death(they still had alot of energy), korn songs is really fit as an opening track "are you ready!!" RHCP creed and bush are ALL GOOD alternative band(creed is a bit boring), limp bizkit(i dont like this band and i dont care with this band) , megadeth the only heavy metal band beside metallica also having great performance with a secret place(actually they had a bunch of heavy songs but they didnt play it at woodstock)
i had no command on buckcherry

i got a secret for youMonday, July 16, 2001
Woodstock is a pretty much big festival and it was obvious that Megadeth made it big with its "a secret place" song...Megadeth rules the world...
Red cd's good, Blue cd's.... okFriday, February 09, 2001
This is the closest you can get to re-living Woodstock 99 without all the fires, riots, rapes, & overflowing toilets.
The Red disc is pretty good- It has great live songs from KoRn, Kid Rock, Rage, Offspring, Lit, Megadeth, Metallica, Live, Chili Peppers, Creed, Bush, Sevendust, & Godsmack. The Limp Bizkit song on here is not that great- I'm not a big fan of them or anything, but still, Show Me What You Got? If you were gonna put one of their fewer good songs on there put Break Stuff on! I skip over Buckcherry & DMX cause I hate them- Buckcherry just plain old sucks, and my god, they had to waste that track with an awful rapper like DMX- If you're gonna put a rapper on, two words- ICE CUBE! The interlude is just some guy saying "Ok, that fire really is a problem, we need to let the firemen get through"- what a waste of space- We all watched the news, we all heard about the little fire incident, no need to waste a track for something like that.
Now, as for the Blue Disc, there's a pretty interesting variety of music on here- Dave Matthews, Brian Setzer, Bruce Hornsby, Guster, Everlast, Everclear, Jamiroquai, G Love, Rusted Root, Alanis Morisette. If you have diverse taste you'll enjoy it. I said the Blue disc was "....ok" because I noticed that Wycleaf insn't on it! But nooo, they had to put Elvis Costello on! I also would've loved to see a Counting Crows song on there- They're a LOT better than Our Lady Peace! And what's up with EVERCLEAR on the blue disc?! They're pretty heavy- they should've been on the red cd instead of that stupid interlude!
Woodstock 99 had its fair share of good bands & bad bands- Even almost 3 years after the event I still ask this one question: HOW THE HELL DID SUGAR RAY GET ON THAT STAGE? and who the hell got INSANE CLOWN POSSEE in??
So in conclusion, if you only like loud heavy stuff, get the Red cd. If you like soft stuff, get the Blue cd. If you have extremely diverse taste and like both loud & soft(like me), get the 2-disc set.

Are... you... READY?!?!?!?Saturday, December 30, 2000
Ahh... woodstock! Three days of love... well, for the most part. I've heard some pretty bad things about what went on at this concert. In my personal opinion, rape is the lowest form of activity that anyone could participate in and anyone who rapes another person deserves to BURN IN HELL. Now, having said that, I will now review the music. They (who? you may ask... THEM, DAMMIT! LOL) decided to release this as a 2 disc set... I think that's a pretty groovy idea because the musical styles on the two cd's are very different. On to the review... now I can't review EVERY track on each CD but I'll hit on (in my opinion) the high notes..
DISC ONE: THE RED DISC: Alrighttt..... ROCK N ROLL, BAYBEEE!! *throws up some metal* Talk about "The Hard and The Heavy". I was completely blown away by this disc! I actually hadn't heard of half the artists on this cd until I bought it... but I took a chance and boy am I glad I did! The red disc delivers over an hour of in your face rock and roll. Sure, these weren't the ABSOLUTE BEST songs sung at woodstock? lol But anyway, it all pretty much rocks and even though I hadn't heard of a lot of the musicians when I first got this cd, I sat there and listened to and enjoyed the whole thing. If you're a fan of heavier rock music, then the red disc is for you! But.... there is another... skywalker.. oops.. no, wait... there is another... disc. LOL
DISC TWO: THE BLUE DISC: Ahh the blue disc. What a break from all the hard stuff on the red disc! If you like the softer side of music, then this disc is the one for you! I actually bought the whole woodstock 99 album because a friend of mine brought the blue disc to school one day and I listened to it. I really liked it, even though I didn't know who a lot of the people on it were. It's just good music and I can respect that. There isn't a bad song on here.
STANDOUT CUTS: THE RED DISC
Korn-Blind, The Offspring-The Kids Aren't Alright, Kid Rock-Bawitdaba, RATM-Bulls On Parade (personal fave), Godsmack-stay away, Red Hot Chilli Peppers-Fire (Hendrix, baybeeee)
STANDOUT CUTS: THE BLUE DISC:
Dave Matthews Band-Tripping Billies, Everlast-Ends, Everclear-Santa Monica(Watch The World Die), The Roots-Adrenaline (My second fave from this disc), Elvis Costello-Alison (Personal fave)
OVERALL THOUGHTS: Great collection. At best, it's great and at worst, it's good. The mastering is clear on all tracks except the Korn song. Any fan of music should own this cd and try to forget about the bad stuff that happened at the concert.

Very Well Done! Great Sound Mixing!Wednesday, February 02, 2000
You always love to open a CD with Blind cause thats what Korn always plays first at concert with the famous "ARE YOU READY? " and then from there the CD shows a great side to it. The sound mixing is great making it seem continious and making you bring back memories of woodstock! The only thing they left out maybe they shoulda done was Faith, when he says something like "I wanna know, if you cna let me come in the crowd with you" when I was at woodstock that was one of my most favorite momemnts! Great CD, should a changed the Limp Bizkit song, glad they put Ourl Lady Peace on and altogether is VERY cool! Can't wait for Woodstock2004 (if there is one! )
