...and that is great news INDEED! I left during the Chillis, but, to honest I missed a chunk of Pixies(which i will deeply regret forever, probably-but it ain't gonna happen again!)and was a tad pissed off. Having said that, they(the Peppers, not the Pixies)sounded a bit lame. They've mellowed into boring, whiney crud.
[EDITED- left the words 'great news'out. Important words!] |

Yeah i wandered off during chilis too to find food and drink.. i was a bit wasted on beer and spliff last yr and the whole experience was somewhat less than it should have been so this year there will be no pre-pixies drunkness.

Roll on May, won't be happy 'til I've a ticket in my hand, and then won't be happy 'til the day and then 'til I've gotten through all the bloody barriers up to the front, and if that doesn't happen...I won't be happy :(

can you imagine what the DARTs are going to be like that night? yikes.
I think animal testing is a terrible idea; they get all nervous and give the wrong answers.
