	US Festival - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The US Festivals were two early 1980s music and culture festivals sponsored by Steve Wozniak of Apple Computer, and broadcast live on MTV.
		In the years after the confusion of the Woodstock Festival and the crowd-control debacle of Altamont in 1969, most attempted festivals in America were small-scale affairs, usually centered around a humanitarian cause, such as the 1979 Concerts for Kampuchea.
		The 1982 US Festival was the first major festival since that time that was not a charity concert—it was intended to be celebration of evolving technologies; a marriage of music, computers, television and people.
