Paulscoconutass Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 But there wasn't a riot that ended up with almost everyone on the camp site getting free beer?!?!? FOUR massive amnesty on warm beer vans were broken into, and the riot police were totally shagged. I slept from 1am last night 'til about 10 mins ago with a lunch break... didn't dare fall asleep 'til the riot finished. Amazing weekend.

The Ghost Of Fudge Posted August 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 reading was well behaved by comparison.the funniest thing i saw was a drunk chap at the top of a fairly high tree being pelted with cans of lager and burning logs.you had to take off your hats and hoods to go the the toilet blocks in the camp site too, so the cctv could get a good look at your face....

Snowball Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 I slept from 1am last night 'til about 10 mins ago with a lunch break... didn't dare fall asleep 'til the riot finished. Amazing weekend.Heh, I slept from about 2 am until 3.45 this afternoon, and that was with me sleeping through most of the rioting too. I did hear of a guy up a tree with a large fire underneath, and people were putting tents and gas canisters on (hence explosions) and he just sat there completely unperturbed...

Chris Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 pfft. Riots are so 2000.Seriously though. It's becoming worryingly like tradition to have a riot on the last night at Leeds. Can't see the local council letting that carry on for too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Of Fudge Posted August 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 BRMC had their set cut short. can you imagine james deadloss/radio lucifer's face if someone told him he had to cut two songs from his set, even at moshulu? he'd be tripping over it for weeks.
