I wish I had been around - that was kinda irritating to glance over and see guys peeing in the woods - at times I was hoping some of them had gotten into poison (I know mean of me - sorry)

LOL - prolly - but then again - I am the type of female that doe snot have a problem with going when I need to go - as long as I have a little privacy away from prying eyes - but right along the walk way was pretty gross

A guy stopped by our tent selling "happy" fruity-pebble treats, and my friend asked him how he made them, and he launched into an obviously-memorized 2 minute lecture that started, "well, I get my stuff from a farm in Northern California, I slow cook in butter and oil for 12 hours...." on and on and on..... and when he finishes, my friend said, "You had me at 'Northern California.'"
If you would stop and notice that we number every day But allow the many moments left uncounted slip away You don't have to count them, just enjoy them one by one Then things would take a different hue and sparkle in the sun - Phish
On Shakedown we were looking at some glass pieces, and when we came to one that was slightly "T" shaped and almost sharp on one end, the guy selling them said "That one doubles as a murder weapon. Our biggest seller in Detroit."
I guess the funny part is that one person with us was from Detroit.

Saw this guy walking(stumbling) around during Ben Harper's set with a beer in his hand and a large cardboard sign hanging from his neck that read the following:
"This is not a joke!
If I'm passed out, get me to Galactic, and you will get $20!"
*it was written pretty sloppily with a marker and there were little doodles and things on it as well, one of the best laughs I had all weekend*

oh my. there were alot of excellent "moments"... but the one that sticks out the most had to be... *[ on saturday afternoon, i was enjoying a toke and relaxation with some of my crew at our campsite. this man, in his early 40's id presume, dressed in a cut off plaid/flannel type shirt and shooort cut off jean shorts staggered up to us. he just sparked a conversation right up with us, offering a copious amount of unmentionables, and was just a ham but the shining moment was when we were talking about the lottery. we were talking about the crazy things we'd do, buy, etc, and he decides to share with us that if he won the lottery he "buy a brand new double wide and a years supply of coppehagen!!!!" that a way, shoot for the damn stars, right? hahaha.

That is hysterical. While we were walking to Superjam, we were walking next to a couple of guys that were whistling the Mayberry theme song. I started whistling, someone else joined in from across camp, as another guy walking at us joined in as well. Once we had passed, the guy looked right over at me and goes "I knew that was going to happen" and we all just exploded in laughter. Guess you had to be there. Another had to be there moment - Flaming lips, this couple was in front of me getting ready to leave, and the guy dropped his bottle of water on the ground, which was empty. He saw me, looked straight at me and says "That's littering" . I just stared at him, and then another explosion of laughter.
while waiting in the huge crowd of ppl tryin to get in to see tool some guy yelled "MILK WAS A BAD CHOICE" everyone around us laughed for like 10 minutes.

Which entrance did you come in from? My memory is really hazy(i wonder why...) and I can't remember if I saw that or not.
During the Decemberists show, I was convinced that they were picking on me and I was sitting on the ground near the stage. Me to girl sitting next to me: "They're gonna stop, right?" Her with a look of confusion, "What? Me, practically begging, " They're gonna stop, right? Right? Her, a slight look of horror.

So while I was waiting for Tool, I played volleyball with about 50 other people. I was right near the fence on the left side. Every time someone would drop the ball, the entire crowd would boo the person and once we saw it again, everybody cheered. It was a pretty great time waster.
I was standing in the security line Sunday when the security guard proceeded to tell me I couldn't bring my glow sticks in because some musician had bitched about getting hit. So I walked about 5 people back and started unwraping them and stuffing them in my shirt and this guy looked at me wierd
Me: They won't let me bring them [Glowsticks] in. So I'm hiding them!! Guy: How do you plan on hiding all of them? Me: Honey I have big boobs come on now! You gotta do what you gotta do! Guy: Yeah that's what I said before I snorted coke off of a toilet seat!!
Ben Harper during Burn One Down: This has got to be the biggest cloud of smoke I've even seen!!
yeah = we noticed that last year and were careful last year and this year to NOT sit along a fence anywhere
That reminded me of a moment when we were walking past a wall behind a few guys:
Guy 1: Dude, I think that chick is sitting exactly where you puked last night. Guy 2: No way! Guy 1: Way! Guy 2: Is she hot?
the two guys run to the spot where the girl/puke is located.
LOL. That sounds like my friend. We were on shakedown one night late and he started puking. While he was puking this girl walked by completely naked in body paint and was like "Hey man check it out that girls naked." so he stops puking completely looks up and checks her out for a few minutes until she walks away. Then he starts puking again. Man are my friends from Memphis a mess.

Some Redneck was yelling while Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips spoke about the Iraq War: "GET HIM OFF THE STAGE, THAT GUY HATES AMERICA!!!"
HAHAHA, that's my kind of guy! i think that iraq war speech killed the lips vibe. i was having a great time, until mr.coyne reminded me that my favorite brother is thousands of miles away from me getting shot at. i left about halfway through their set, thouroughly upset.

I think every show I went to was thoroughly anti-Bush anti-Iraq, even if not spoken of directly.

Yeah , I hate when politics and entertainment are interwoven needlessly like that, its seriously a buzzkill.
But the funniest thing I heard was waiting in line for Tool. I had been there for a few hours pre gaming with the people around me, while some guy yells "It's Tool time!!!!"

with the way my mind was that night - I would have dissolved into a fit of giggles if I had heard that
Dude was chanting: dum digga dum dum dum digga dum dum dum digga dum dum dum chick was chanting: dum diggy diggy diggy dum diggy diggy diggy dum ziggy um diggy dum
As they walked, others(including myself) started walking with them and adding different lines to it, by the time we got to the end of shakedown and everyone seperated we must've had 15 people....
