Not only do you have to wonder around all day in the hot sun, but the fucking promoters won't let you bring in anything (i.e. WOODSTOCK). Contraband, Drugs, shit like that I can understand. But no lawn chairs? Fuck, this is just what I need to sit down on the grass, where horses shit all day on. Remember this gig is on a POLO FIELD. Fuck that. Besides I won't be able to hang with the "KROQ" crowd. There *ARE* some locals who do have some connections and i'm gonna begin bothering them to try n keep the "talent" in town. peace g -- "dj's are amongst the fatal errors of the 90's category"- Atom Heart
