I'm looking forward to this year

I still love how people look at the first few bands confirmed and dismiss the entire festival.

as every other year- or am i missing something.

Alex_b | 14 Apr '07, 16:19 | X | Reply

About 2 of those bands played last year.

What a great post!

Goths calling emos 'fucked in the head'. With not even a hint of irony. Or punctuation. I like it.
