    well, I'm here for a wee while, although real life (ie my mates going to the pub to celebrate finishing exams) may tear me away at any moment.
    No wine, though, I'm drinking peppermint tea. Rock and roll.

    i stole the quote from roddy woomble, the singer of idlewild, but i think he also quoted someone else without stating the name...
    soo...

    it's a good philosophy though :D

    roddy woomble...I met him and got his autograph a few years ago. He looked a bit bewildered, bless him.

    ok, to start reliving...
    where were you guys standing this time 5 weeks ago?

    i was with blue_rain and another mate down the front... right in front of jeff... probably third row or so (just behind the little step at the barrier) but that changed :D

    I was slightly further back than psycosmic by a row or two, in front of Ed with VV to the right just in front of me , Release Me, Inside the Well and wash in front of me to the left and Gossard_Is_God begind me slightly to the right :)

    6-7 back, mike side of course (where I intend to be at reading, and marseille). did stone's side when I went to NJ in '03 though.

    nice, will keep the eyes peeled.

    5 weeks ago, I was politely trying to avoid a bald man who kept on standing on one leg to show me his pearl jam tattoo on his shin, falling over a fair bit in the process. Don't worry, I soon lost him once the band started playing (he was old enough to be my dad, shudder). :D

    so were really close...
    release me and inside the well were behind me to my right :)

    i only met them in the crowd for the first time :D
    and i remember how naomi told me "oh, psycosmic, you have been posting for a while" :rolleeye:

    I was right behind Ross at the start and recognised him from the blog so said hi. Think they got out of the pit pretty quickly after the start as Naomi (I had shown were to find all the smilie info a couple of days before) and wash were getting more squashed than they liked :o I got pushed towards the right quite quickly to directly in front of Ed (about 4 rows back) :)

    i used the push during the first few songs to get a little bit closer...
    so me and blue_rain ended up about second row in front of jeff (as planned:) ) sometimes more gravitating more towards ed or mike...
