Way too many people were losing their bands this year, fairly positive they are EXACTLY the same as last (and previous?) years. Got them all on my wall right here. I think the real problem is that they were not being put on tight enough so they would snag during festing and rip off. I had mine put tight, still looks brand new. :wink:



i think the replacement bands this year were the same as Fest VI or V. i have to check. but they were orange. wasn't Fest IV made of a different material?

shoulda gone to Flaco's. i dunno why i ever thought they were mediocre before. the Ropa Vieja sold me. i would eat it til i vomited. and maybe thought for a moment or two to eat that...only for a moment.


Sorry, Flacos bores me. If I ate meat may be a whole other story though.

Haha, were you standing right by me and witnessing all that by any chance? You should have said hi, don't know what you look like. Sunday was MY Fest, didn't really drink til then. :wink:

Absolutely. I didn't realize it was you until you said something about that show on here. I figured you'd be over at 1982 with all the hardcore bands :D.

edit: what was that one REALLY good song that Two Cow Garage jumped in on?


I was running between the metal bands at Market Street and the Folk/Country at CGs that night. Such and awesome perfect balance for me.

The first time Two Cow joined Drag I'm pretty sure it was a song named Fire & Flood. Funny thing is that about 5 songs later Jon and Chad did the same song again acoustic and I'm the only one there that noticed. So yeah, I wasn't really too drunk. :wink: I just get a little crazy watching Drag.

I have back to Fest 4 on my wall here and they all seem to be the same, other than color. Mine was green that year.

We ordered the wristbands this year from the same place we've always ordered them from. Only the RED wrist bands were ordered this year. And it was only the RED wristbands that gave us problems with breaking. All the other colors we leftovers from previous years. Seems to me that the wristband company started making shittier wristbands. We're sorry for all the problems.

Mine didn't fall off, and I partied pretty hard this year. But I know a ton of people's who did. Hopefully next year we'll get some more of those Fest proof bands.

Mine fell off Monday afternoon whilst drinking a beer by the pool. It's like that shit was on a timer.
