[anythinggoes]

ok anybody want to help me with the updates (setlist pics) again pm me your email preferably a mod or someone well known i like it its fun last night cost me ?25 due to the stupid prices from 02 ireland

but back in England so its cool

and to the people moaning about the set lists FUCK OFF go to a show and then moan dont read updates and moan when you are there you dont give a fuck whats played it is an amazing machine when its rolling

another thing the Jams i keep mentioning are just 30-60 sec jams fuck all really while the stage crew are setting up or guitars swapped stop going on about it the jams are really fucking cool to hear because you see the band enjoying themselves

i dont think axl has looked pissed of once in 2006 on the shows ive seen either live bootlegged or streamed

[Christos AG]

Unfortunately tonight I'll be busy, first I have to go to a wedding, and then I have to go out with a chick if I wanna get married someday... 

Anyway, if you see me online, it means that my plans for getting married have changed dramatically...

The Dog's Blog - Saturday

Updated live throughout the festival...

16:00pm

Full time - England:1 Paraguay: 0.

Back to the rock.

14:03pm

Just three minutes into the England vs Paraguay World Cup match, England get off to the perfect start. David Beckham, proving why his presence remains invaluable to England's cause, produces a superb inswinging set-piece from out on the left hand side which finds its way into the back of the net via Paraguay defender Carlos Guerra.

13:15pm

En-ger-land. Everyone's getting very very excited.

12 Midday

Sniffed out some juicy backstage rumours. Apparently Kid Rock is confirmed to join Guns N' Roses tomorrow night. In other GNR-related news, I hear we may also be joined today by my old mucker Duff McCagan. He has been joining Alice in Chains at some of their US dates and they're on the main stage here today...

11am

Crawl out of my kennel into another glorious day - still no clouds to be seen. Everyone is playing football - must be a big match on today or something....

[holtzmn73]

Those pictures and your comments remind me why I hate festivals, way too many people and way too many idiots(bottle throwers).  Have fun though.
