..that I HATE my job so much, with now only 4 days of getting up at 5.30am left before the weekend and then time off, the idea of coming back from Florida with nothing to look forward to but 'the weekend' is really bumming me out. Am I the only one insane enough to be getting pre-post-fest-stress disorder?

maybe I could run away while still in the states, and live in a tent in someones garden. I wouldn't eat much, I could collect bottles in a trolley all day and eat beans from a can at night.

I'm quitting my job to go to Fest, because I can't stand the idea of shaving my head and returning to my role of customer-servitude. DAMN THE MAN!

I've been having similar thoughts. I always get a little depressed as the winter sets in anyway and to be honest I'm dreading getting home with nothing to look forward to when I'm back.

Maybe we could try and get some sort of post Fest UK reunion gig going on somewhere to relive the memories.

Failing that we could rob a bank and all pile out to Chicago for Riot Fest a couple of weeks later!

I know what you mean. I bought my Fest pass and plane ticket back in August. At that point i was looking forward to the Seaweed show in Seattle in Sept and the Fest in October. After the Fest i ain't got shit to look forward to besides a another rainy winter in the Pacific Northwest.
