i said you will smell like shit

i can just go to ireland if i want that

1 day at lolla was enough for me ,,its not my bag im a city boy

Huh? You think 1 day at lolla is an example of how it will be? Did you not go back to your hotel and shower 4 or 5 times throughout the day?

There was no muck at lolla you're not a city boy, you're a pussy!

And funny thing is... when everyone smells like shit it's not actually the end of the world and you don't even notice after a while

I'm sure I'd do whatever I need to do in an extreme circumstance and for the record I dont eat fast food... but to pay over $800 for me a my husband to be uncomfortable, in the mud, hot as shit only to see PJ .. I dont think so.. we'll wait...

Yes I was wondering that about him too! Maybe he wants the outdoor exprerience hehe.

I just don't know right now. I am 50-50 about it! Lolla was great, and I don't mind the dirt for one day, hell we went to Warped and that was dirty due to all the circle pits going on, but was a blast, and I'd still manage a shower at the end of the day. Its always fun to plan for the new year though.

True but you can get water fill ups and disposal for a fee ($50 or so, I think I read)... hell if I was spending all that money to be there, rent the RV, eat, drink and be merry, $50 or $100 more wouldn't stand in my way of taking a few navy showers and having to fill up or empty the water tanks once or twice. I'd consider it an alternative to spending $50 to $100 on tshirts which will shrink or wear out 6 months after the show

pjtaper

only read the beginning of the first post, but yea, that is kinda how I'm feeling..
I don't want to spend $500 on myself/gf's tix, then the next day someone announces a Gorge show and I say "Shit, for the price of two Bonnorrrooaaaa tickets we could have covered plane tickets to the Gorge"

Decisions, decisions... damn you 10C!

i understand...


drop the husband and it'll only be $200.. then buy one of Speedy's shower things..

but i do understand.. its not the lack of showers that puts me off Glastonbury festival here its the fucking hippies trying to sell me Moon Gems to put into my cornflakes and telling my auru is fucked.. course its fucked and its because aforementioned hippy smells like Stalin's cock....

I'm sorry but I gotta disagree with that... there is NO WAY baby wipes take away that stench of sweaty yucky people or would make me feel any cleaner...

When I thought about going I never thought of camping for 4 days...I would camp for 4 days anywhere else (i.e camping trips) but not at a festival were people are jumping and dancing, body painting and rolling the mud and have no access to showers.... baby wipes definately are no solution.. yuck :eek: IMO

Let's not forget it's Tennessee in June.
I was there last year at that time approximately. It was horribly hot and horribly humid. I don't think there is much in Europe that can compare to that kind of environment. So it's not no shower, camping, and jumping up and down in general, it's no shower, camping and jumping up and down in TENNESSEE, in June. Not saying it's impossible to enjoy it, obviously many people did and will, but that ain't me

you know what i find strange about how PJ works?

radiohead and white stripes announced all their shows for all their tours on the same date.. Radiohead even announced their North American tour and gave all the states that they would be playing in... they did this without giving out venue or date information... the benfit is that their fans can see instantly "oh they are not playing Nebraska but they are playing Idaho.. cool"

you know with PJ it was a case of release some dates, release some more, do a north leg of the states and NOT CONFIRM they were not doing a southern leg of the states.

a band that tours as often as PJ should be experts in the planning of a tour.. so they should do the following



Hi folks its tour time

we will be playing the following states

(insert 17 state names here)

and the tour will begin in (month) and end in (month) ... confirmed venues and dates will be released on (insert date here)

we will NOT be touring anywhere else other than the above mentioned, thanks for supporting the band

see you there

I mean really, would that be so damn hard?

Well if you ARE... you're never too old to find your youth again ... and this is the perfect way to do it... go out there and get dirty and mucky and fuck it cos everyone else will be the same so there's no need to even let it weigh on your mind for one second.

If there are no showers I am out.. unless I can just go for one day and then get the fuck out after seeing PJ.
I'm holding out for the Gorge, which they will anounce 20 minutes after you guys buy $250 Bonnnnnarrroooorororoanaroooo tickets!

Now I have a question for you... what if it did turn out that LZ will indeed reunite for a show at Bonnaroo, and you could with good confidence exclude there would be other dates?



I think I'd go, heat, mud, no shower n all
