I almost had one of you with the hair flying forward but it was too dark.

Glad you were having such a good time.

I bet hauling heavy containers around didn't help either. Some rest and analgesics should help.

Oh dear lord, I got crushed up there during Slayer. It was ridiculous. For the last two hours both nights I was STUCK where I was. There was no moving anywhere.

But totally worth it.

I think everybody setting up the stage pissed themselves when the entire crowd did the angel of death scream! That freakin' rocked!!!
