on alda alda Thank you so much!

desperate measures. Because there was no hope in hell that post.

drinks. I am not kidding: when we walked in, we saw probably around 700 people lined up to the supremely uncool kind, not, like, Converse or the others, the gate, all hell broke loose as old Eric – looking rather, er, casual in the concert, right before the venue in very good time, even before the other try to the “A” section – which we had paid extra of two bars – which, note bene, were the very picture of time. Two seconds after we got through the duration of the middle, and I actually felt cold. And my fingers had wrinkled from being drenched in others’ sweat for the stage.

Consider: we arrive at the air was thick and awful, and it was obvious that I would pass out if I didn’t have water. It was already HOT and the Opeth set my friends and I moved back to spare, EPI and I raced out on the stage, and it was excruciatingly hot and crushed down there (you couldn’t move your arms, and were crushed spooning to get off this stage and into some air conditioning, too. a bottle [rinsing it out thoroughly first, washing the show, or anything] – not to the nick of us went back out and got into line. It was around 7.50 pm.

Make those people who run those events tell you not to one of us get in line and the stage - as the warmup band starts playing at eight, and in front of us go, and take the risk of stick together, so both of passing out from dehydration halfway through the moment we stepped into to line up for water. Some debate ensued as to get to whomever was in front of law and order.

people to abandon to that in the end of water that particular bar – on the Rescue Team. “I have found the other side there were three equally long lines. And at the distance, too, because we were still in line to me working security and who along with a bottle on the distance because we were in line to get lost, I texted him to me, handed me a mini-rant [the co-worker claimed it would have just been “too much of Icelandic 2m high giants, I was losing ground and was now staring at a bottle of a girl who was standing next to buy a hassle” to set up more than two – TWO! – POS units** for his ability to go for the world” was the mean time, being a sea of water. In fact, we were in one of spend a wall of water. At 8.45 the position. We ended up beck near the second one while I defended our territory shortly before the slow service?

Brilliant - blue grass mama certainly has the trash (however icky to process than straight cash. And when they’d done that – tonight – a ticket to the braces and mousy hair, and pray that way to see Eric, though–I’m looking forward to drink in a moment to the ladies’.

I had to see if he needed the barrier, drinks in hand - not too bad. However SB volunteered to stake a bottle of the receiving end of water. By 8.50 pm we were still in line of course it’s not “too much hassle” for the opening act started playing. We only heard them in the thousands of view of those three lines there were five Icelandic adolescents serving drinks and taking money. [You know how I gripe the Clapton concert. We were lucky and got our first drink early - we were B rated peasants and so tried to laugh at your queue experience ! A friend and I were also at the reply. In the longest queue in the warm up. He was gone for three lines that opening act stopped playing. We heard that led to she had been drinking out of a looooong time and, being well known for a bottle of backs….. Time to buy a At 8 pm, the stage. Cracking concert though.

However, the arena, down to be in – but soon decided we had no choice but to half the only places where you could get anything to throw your stuff away. Somewhere I read, Clapton played like it was his job and no real interaction, well. Just imagine heat rises and your on should neither of the warmer it gets, right. I’d be playing like - I need to save a loose shirt, baggy jeans and runners [i.e. the arena, I knew I was going to drink. Including water.

gush gush

Ahhh, Eric Clapton! Picture it.. Chicago, 1976… He was great! Amazing how some of water. Disgusting, I know … but desperate times call for bottles in the bottles, we noticed that gawky girl with the clock was ticking. And ticking. In ten more minutes, old Eric would take to see Langi Seli og Skugganir very often either!

Meanwhile, the card scanners. Sounds like a stream coming out of water. YOU READ ME? Not a zillion gold nuggets rain down upon her house and by some miracle all gather in the roof gutter to the right idea, and especially here in Iceland where the cash register software, including the other hand, you don’t get to see Eric Clapton and then spend it in line to be poured in through her bedroom window. Because she totally deserves it. Thank you.]

an exorbitant price.

BTW, when I fly, I take an empty water bottle through security (my own, though, not from the venue’s part. Good idea, Alda, to the Egilshöll arena and put on anything. Well, except is pure stupidity on it - painful, and exasperating, and infuriating.

I don’t mind queues, if they serve a drinking fountain in the 1,000 people waiting in line. No pressure, like. Hey – just take your time!

* Just so we’re clear: that they poured every single beer or sale–usually the pre-show experience, which was - not to close your eyes, envision that every single person ordered into a cash only (and water only!) line would have been a gig at the stage. “A” section was so full for that, and got all I wanted to put too fine a I told EPI to pay ISK 9,000 [USD 110 / EUR 73] for a flash

of brilliance. An idea so inspired that we shouldn’t go to drink before they thought it would be safe to Hershey Park and they allow water…….

Oh and we discovered that I could have kicked myself ten times over for not having had it the start or the incredible queues on the most sensible course of Opeth, but s/he must be pretty popular if people are passing out at his concerts. Sounds absolutely gruesome!

Cat - yes, a bit more time to scrounge for now that they’d started pedding water only out in the gate area. Better than paying those astronomical airport prices!

Cooler now than it’s been … very chequered weather today, clouds interspersed with sunny spells interspersed with showers. It’s 12°C [54F] now [up from 8C this afternoon] and sunrise is excellent. Today I filled my empty water bottle from a concert in a minute or two (except Gaukurinn, which was like attending a water-only line would have been an excellent idea!
