There's a video of some of it too

I was there right at the front, amazing set. I remember it being hotter than hell though.
Oh and then
letter that day I saw Lift To Experience, Guided by Voices and Mogwai.
Wouldn't see a line-up like that now, alas.
Yeah, that was a good year.
I wonder if the lineup will ever have that range of acts again.
yea it was hot!
but not hot enuough to literally soak me to the bone! it was like being in a shower the amount of water those security were throwing on the crowd!
ACE gig though :)
.
when you search 'trail of dead reading' on youtube, you don't expect to find a video of trail of dead actually reading out loud from a book and stuff, but i did...and it's here:
