I almost puked in the street after the American Steel set last year and ever since that day I think to myself how much better it would have been if I had puked in the street.

My friend Jimmy didn't take an Aderol that Paddy offered him in exchange for a drink of water. I regret not punching Jimmy in the head.

It should be that you missed Monotonix for no good reason.

I left 1982 before The Flatliners played because the parts of my feet that I could feel hurt. I guess it's OK because I caught them in Stuart the night after.

Also, I went to see both Brendan Kelly bands over Gaslight and The Draft and the bastard decided to skip "Broken Down" from the set-lists.

I have many regrets, but anything I've done or not done at The Fest is not worth second guessing.

My only regret is that until last year, I just cherry picked shows, instead of getting a weekend pass.

I regret not drinking the cheap whiskey I'd never heard of before offered to me by Tyler at 10 in the morning.

Not having a backup camera. When Municipal Waste played Fest 6 in those fantastic costumes I was literally sitting up on stage when my camera took a shit during the first song. I was about in tears but laughing so hard all at once. So, I filled up the skull beer bong and made myself useful instead.

I own a skull funnel, and yes he will be making an appearance.

Leaving before O Pioneers!!! played at the Fest 5 but I had a two hour drive and was done for already, sadly I still haven't seen them I remember I bought their cd and the merch girl was like, "WAIT THEY HAVEN'T PLAYED YET!!!" I was like fuck you're excited, oh wait I lied I saw the guys in O Pioneers!!! at Ryan's apartment but I've never seen them play haha

so I've seen O Pioneers!!! I just haven't seen them

assuming drugs were easier to find

i was about to go see this "band from israel that will melt your fucking face off" but then Danny and I went on some fools errand to help our friend out who'd gotten ripped off by some dealer. I've since seen the Monotonix once sober and once on acid even though they're the last band you'd NEED it for to make it great, they're the first band you WANT it for to make it HOLY SHIT SHIT SHIT

Hahaha, I am literally buying used old cameras just to take to Fest because they are likely to get kicked in by someone crowdsurfing or trodden on.

I regret leaving Common Grounds before The Arrivals played to trek out to the middle of bumfuck nowheresville, or "2nd St Bakery", having promised myself a shitload of beer as reward, only to find the bastard place didn't have a bar. I sat in the dirt thinking about that one for a while.

There you go, smart guy!

You should crowd-surf with a camera, I bet that'd look badass.
