The Ozark Music Festival that took place in Sedalia, Missouri in July 1974 was a star-studded Southern rock festival that turned into a disaster. The festival organizers made promises they couldn't keep, resulting in a lack of security, inadequate amenities, and widespread drug use. The event had a chaotic impact on the town, with businesses shutting down and incidents of vandalism and violence occurring. Despite the negative aspects, some attendees saw the festival as a memorable experience and an opportunity to see their favorite bands. [Extracted from the article] |
