“We're just here to put on a great musical show and I think any social or political issues are secondary, although very important, because it is a music festival first and foremost,”
“We asked all sorts of people from all different walks of music and this is who we got this year, who said yes. I think music crosses barriers and boundaries. If it's good, it's good. We're after good music.”
“We plan to have three years and try not to repeat artists in the same marketplaces. I have a hard time thinking of what's going be going on next week, much less two years from now. We're going to sit down after '99 and reassess things, probably take a year off.”
“I thought, 'Well, why don't I get some of the women who I've had open up for me before and some artists that I really admire and respect. Let's ask them to do a few shows.'”
