What a washout! New York music festival cancelled as torrential rain reduces venue to mud bath
14 July 2014

An Upstate New York music festival meant, in part, as a nod to the 1969's Woodstock, was canceled Sunday due to torrential rains sweeping through the area.
The Hudson Project was meant to last from July 11 to July 13, but Sunday evening's acts including Bassnectar were rained out.
The music was supposed to go on at least through the early morning hours Monday, but rains turned the Saugerties campground into a muddy scene more reminiscent of the summer of 1994's famously sloppy Woodstock followup than the summer of love.

Nonetheless, photos from the festival on Sunday show revelers getting down and dirty and making the most of the filthy festivities.
Mud-covered hills became the perfect sledding slopes men and women slipped and slid their way to a good time even without a musical accompaniment.
