Really, really excellent.
Water & obvious planning issues aside... I think a big part of the failure was the pre-teen/ early teen demographic being so newly recognized as YOUNG ADULTS and marketed to in the 90s.
In the 60s & 70s you didn't have magazines etc. catering to these specific kids, let alone music genres. They were considered kids still. The culture was not ready for these young adults to attend these types of festivals, with their lack of maturity, and with potentially sleazy adults in attendance.
Maybe the documentary even mentions this, I don't remember. I have a tendency to blindly pontificate and brainstorm
