not the quickest reaction, sure, but in a curious "the internet isnt just computers but people what are real" situation, i ask "who were you at truck?"
for my part, i was bearded, wearing a cheap QOTSA tshirt and accompanied by a white-fro adorned fool in a 'gazi tshirt

Hopefully, someone noticed all the poi-ers ther - ya know, the frilly things on strings people were swinging. I had an orange set of them and stuck glowing things on them at night..I was poi-ing looooads so hopefully someone saw me..??? pleeease?!?!?!
did anyone see SmileX??? they're so much fun live. Not as good this year as last year though. Last year, i met the lead singer in tescos the next monday!!! he's so shy and...normal!!!!

Sean, he of the sunglasses, i remember seeing you wandering around...you were leaving the Barn on Saturday, looking amused in a wry-smile kind of way.
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
the tshirts were a shameless promotion of our band "kate is cool". we are rubbish. we had our photo taken with lots of kate's though.
just out of interest, what types did we look like?
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
i was the non-bearded person in..... actually i forget what t-shirts i was wearing.

Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
Must remember to make a large number of t-shirts with common girls' names printed on, each followed by "is cool". It's bound to lead to a relationship sooner or later.
When i say "the types wearing them", it wasn't that there was anything particularly "typey" about you, if you see what i mean, you were just lacking the particular essence of KTB fans.If there are any.
(that's a little harsh, but you know its true really!)
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
im going to try to get us on the bill for next year.
did anyone see Whores of Babylon? a totally unique experience
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
i dont think they had rehearsed much because the singer kept looking around as if to say "what am i supposed to do now" i liked the mumbling and then sporadic squeeking.
and the drummer messing up was pure class too.
my favourite festival goer was Jeremy the guy with the stetson, long beard and long hair. he looked like he'd been to a thousand festivals. and he took a group photo for us.

Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK

i started that one as well, pretty much just because someone said that it wouldnt work.
fact is, for me, this post only prompted one recognition
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
Paul from The Scaramanga Six here. Thanks for the compliments - it sure was a trial putting up a tent in a suit and I was in total despair when I'd realised we'd left the corby trouser press at home. Still, my despair was somewhat aswaged by the utterly ace bands I saw and the two gallons of farmyard scrumpy I consumed.
Re: WHO WERE YOU AT TRUCK
BTW, the gig with Engerica should be a stormer... I wish I still lived in Wakefield so I could get over there to see it!
