sooo ... ok. the crowd may be a bit bigger than i have thus far anticipated.

i had hoped to attend coventry in august, more so for the expereince of it than anything else. let's face it, that's why i went to woodstock, after all. 250,000 of my closest friends? i couldn't say no. and despite getting lost, despite the heat, despite the medical tent - i would have considered going again, had they offered a woodstock '04. i did want to go to bonnaroo and coachella, afterall - just had no way of getting there.

as it turns out, coventry is also not in my destiny. alas, my only trey experience will be running into him at cumby's (again, for the record, might i note that he never apologized for bumping into me?).

instead, i'm going to a show that could be just as large, if not larger. in a much more enjoyable location than the northeast kingdon, with a band i actually like (contrary to popular belief, not all vermonters are huge phishheads. even those who went to college in burlington). sans phish's $150 ticket fee - any fee, actually. and if they're playing until sundown, that makes for at least three hours of potential playtime.

somehow, i think i made out in this deal. coventry - HA!
