I went, the 311 drum solos were the best, plus people were trying to mosh out on the lawn next to me and it always just ended up with 2 high schoolers getting pissed off and trying to fight. And some girl next to me had a boyfriend that was drinking a daquiri, so that was pretty funny.
Out on the lawn the concession guy was dancing around during snoop dogg, then all of a sudden i turn around and he's taking hits of weed off of everyone who had some. fucking awesome. 7/24/2008 1:10:51 PM |

it was awesome
i skipped snoop dogg
while we were chilling out near the vip tent before snoop was done, some dude on a cell phone just decided to whip it out and pee right there in the concourse where all the concessions are
luckily he was whisked away by security 7/24/2008 1:12:45 PM |

I didn't think Snoop / 311 had toured together before
I did see 311 w/ Jay Z in Charlotte a few years back...was a pretty serious culture clash 7/24/2008 1:21:55 PM |

I always see so many familiar faces when I go to concerts, I saw some girl that lived in my dorm that I think I helped with Calc once that used to always bitch about me riding the elevator to the 4th floor in Bowen.

The group got their name when former member, Jim Watson, the band's former guitarist, was charged with indecent exposure in a skinny-dipping incident by the Omaha Police Department and was escorted home handcuffed and naked. The police code which appeared on the citation was "3.11" and the band soon chose it for their name. 7/24/2008 1:35:49 PM |

I think the forensic engineering firm I used to work with did the investigation for that. I helped set up a bunch of tests and took pictures
the guy got electrocuted while walking down the steps barefoot. One of those lights on the front part of the stair had some exposed wires, so once it rained, all the water that pooled up around it was electrified. As soon as the guy stepped in the pool (I think he put his hand on the metal handrail as well) he was a goner. His friend supposedly tried to help him, but wound up getting electrocuted as well - but he lived.

They made the black guy in front of me take off his coat and pretty much turn the thing upside down, followed by a pretty thorough pat down...they pretty much just funneled me & the rest of the whiteys on through

there was a black guy right in front of me, but he got more excited for 311 than for Snoop Dogg, and I got confused for second. 7/24/2008 3:50:19 PM |
