Woodstock Festival, Poland
|
The 1998 Przystanek Woodstock featured the performances of nearly 50 bands. The band list included Closterkeller, Akurat, Oddział Zamknięty, Kobranocka, and Acid Drinkers. Almost 150,000 people attended the festival.
The 1999 Woodstock was held on 6–8 August. This time the attendance record was broken, because the audience reached almost 200,000 people.
The 2000 festival was planned to be held in Lębork, but due to permission uncertainties, and protest of local committees (Komitet obrony Moralności - The Committee for the Defense of Morality) it had to be cancelled.
Nevertheless over 1000 people showed up, and organized an unauthorized "rock'n'roll picnic", without any professional music bands. This happening was later referred to as the "Dziki Przystanek" ("The Wild Station").
