*** George II Fanviews 7/23 Here ***

Hey Purple Chick, I've got a great butt crack for you to examine!! Night 2 had the best butt cracks I'd ever seen! Matching crack!

Nice to meet a few of you on Sunday night at the CCFA benefit, and putting names to faces. We were the pair with the kids in their homemade PJ shirts. This was their first PJ show and it was so great to experience this with them. They were in awe partly that we were not the only PJ addicts on the planet, and to meet others who share our PJ passion. My 8 year old son is the strong silent type, but he loved the show, and was just so happy to see the band from row 10 (SEC C). We now have to get him his own 10c account!! His almost 6 year old sister liked it alot too, but the heat wiped her out quite abit, but she still rocked out alot at her favorites. (We were row 7, sec on ctr aisle.) As I told them, if they can survive the journey to get here and the heat and crowds, they can handle any show. But the shows were a good mix for me, experiencing the first show with just my husband in the muggy heat, and hearing Dirty Frank and Leash. Night two we arrived at 4 to avoid all the killer line ups. Stayed hydrated and just hung out in the shade til showtime. Yes, the set was shorter, but LOVED Satan's Bed and just being here! I love the Gorge as a venue, and I love this band, how they can continue to keep any show fresh and unexpected.
Peace, Lisa

I haven't seen anyone mention this yet. After the final goodbyes from the band a tour bus rolled out of there about thirty seconds later. Those of us sitting up on the left side terrace watched it drive away from close to the stage area and on up the hill; we knew right then that a third encore was never going to happen. Guess some of the band were in a hurry to get to the airport and back home!

feel like i just got done with a 50 hour sweatlodge. holy shit. both shows amongst the best i've seen or heard - couple of funny things that i noticed over the course of the weekend

-anyone see the guy jump the fence on the way out on nite one? just after the toilets, when security was ordering everyone off the grass and onto the path, he jumps the fence out into the middle of a big grass field, drops his shorts, moons and shakes. unfortunately, his effort to escape the giant security man was lame and he got decked.

-On the way in on nite one, in the 10C messy line, a group of agro dudes yelling and screaming "10 club sucks", getting really hostile with security, then when they did get to the tent, screaming at the poor folks distrubuting tix, "Fuck you, you suck!" didn't know PJ was so popular with the steroid set.

-speaking of "fuck you, you suck", thanks to all those who crashed in the front of the line with your VIP camping wristband, whatever that happened to mean relative to getting your tix. ya'll really helped move that line along and you all truly are first class. why should you wait for anything? thanks again

-anyone else have trouble finding their campsite after the show? This one poor bloke crashed face down in the grass right in front of our scene, way too fucked up. another poached our hammock to sleep after we'd all crashed. when i opened my eyes sunday morning, hammock dude just popped up and wandered off like he was never there. poof! the grass sleeper got up and had to peel his eyelids apart, then slowly wandered away, crashing into my tent, then our neighbors' tents, then a car. hope he's ok.

-with the overuse of lighter fluid, the fireworks, cig butt flingers and people sitting in their running cars for hours to absorb some AC, combined with the super dryness and yellow grass, I'd like to thank God the whole fucking place didn't burn down. i'm still amazed. fireworks were awesome though.

-my neighbors were having a family ruinion. how cool is that?

-gorge security came to visit me twice. sat nite 4 of them came to the put the kabosh on a mini tiki torch ("no open flames sir"), then sunday afternoon when there was enough wind, i launched a kite and once again, 4 showed up, except the head guy was really bummed out that this was their policy. "who doesn't like flying a kite?" he says. "it's bullshit. I am really sorry. would you mind if i took it down?" i told him to have at it and he proceeded to smile like a goofy 5-year old for the next ten minutes. when it was down, he calls into his radio, very sarcastically, "the kite is down."

-when they sheep-herded us back to camp on saturday, this one gentleman finishes his water and throws the bottle over the fence into the sage, then, literally a second later, a trash can appears, and the girl behind me says, "nice toss asshole" and he just shruggs his shoulders and mumbles something, then someone else chimes in "fuck you hippie" and a bunch of people laugh, but i saw very little funny in that exchange - "this land is mine this land is free i do what i want irresponsibly"

-trash. i walked to the campground store on sunday morning and noticed one particular large group, all seated, and amongst them it seemed was every can, cocktail glass, paper plate and napkins and wrappers from the day before. there was no place you could even take a step without landing on some piece of something. total mini-landfill. around them 5 or 6 the staff was picking everything up. reminded me of a bunch of spoiled kids and their nannies, or perhaps very spoiled pigs who like to party. it was inexcusable, disgusting, and fucking embarrassing. thanks for coming trash people.

-if everyone who said "its fucking HOT" had to give me a nickel, i could have paid for the whole weekend. even eddie would have had to cough one up.

Jeff, Stone and Matt took off right away. Ed and Mike stayed behind and chilled awile.

interesting... Stone had Andy help him with his ear piece... he seemed to be the only one interested in giving the crowd more love...
