This weeks episode we will look at the famous US Festival of 1983.
Steve Wozniak, cofounder of Apple and creator of the Apple I and Apple II personal computers, believed that the 1970s were the "Me" generation. He intended the US Festivals, to encourage the 1980s to be more community-oriented and combine technology with rock music. The first was held Memorial Day weekend in May of 1983.
Join me as we look at the festival, some of the bands that played, interviews, and the music from the 1983 US Festival.
Bands Include: Divinyls, INXS, Wall of Voodoo, Oingo Boingo, Flock of Seagulls, The English Beat, Stray Cats, Men at Work, The Clash & Wolfgang Van Halen (Crandall's Crucial Cut)
