According to Deadline, Netflix is working with Raw (Don’t F**k with Cats, Fear City: New York vs. The Mafia) to produce a docuseries on the ill-fated Woodstock '99 music festival.
"According to sources, the series will delve deep into the culture that created Woodstock ‘99 and tell the real story behind how 'three days of peace, love and music' went down in flames," said Deadline. "Featuring unseen archive footage and intimate testimony from people behind the scenes, on the stages and in the crowds, the series aims at telling the untold story of a landmark musical moment that shaped the cultural landscape for a generation."
For those unfamiliar, Woodstock '99 was intended to celebrate the 30-year anniversary of the original Woodstock '69. Unfortunately the festival was marred by incredible high temperatures, price-gouging for food and beverages, violence, sexual assault, and even some unauthorized bonfires. Basically the whole thing went off the rails immediately and never recovered.
