    Leeds 02

    in PAST CONCERTS

    Posted

    Here's what happened when we when to Leeds Festival. Please forgive me for writing an essay!

    I was sooooooo pumped about going to Leeds and seeing GNR! (the only reason I drove up from London and stayed 3 nights!)  Did anyone see the "legal High" stalls?? Did anybody try some??  I thought they must be sh*t and proceeded to eat, 6 'MAD XTC' pill things, snort about 6 whole bags of 'POKE' (stupid coke substitute) and wash the lot down with some warm beer!  Half an hour later, I think when 100 Reasons were playing, I stared to feel really spaced.  The others were feeling it too but they had quite abit less than I did.  I went to the porta bogs and MADE myself throw up, hoping I would feel better. I didn't. I was throwing up so violently that blood started to replace the vomit!

    To the medi tent it was.  I couldn't see or walk staight! They had me on Gas N' Air, a "line in" on my hand and a "drip" in my arm. And yes, I was feeling as bad as I looked!  They said they would be admitting me to hospital and at that time I didn't care, just wanted to feel better.

    In the ambulance on the way to "St. Jimmys" hospital I started to feel better (possibly due to 2 bags of drip solution and missing Axl later that day).  After 20 minutes of refusing treatment they turned the Ambulance around and I had to sign something to say that THEY were no longer responsible if something happened to me.

    Back at the medi tent I was checked over again by the nurse and had the needels ripped out of my arms, then I was free to go.  I found my friends, who were quite worried about me (awwwww) and went back to the tent.

    I wasn't getting better. I still couldn't hold water or food down, and I was still very sick.  

    Later on after trying to get some sleep it was time to go see GNR. But I couldn't. I was SO f**ked that I couldn't move. The rest of them made their way to the Areana and I just slept.  

    I kept being woken by my phone ringing and it was Emma (axlsrose) playing me Welcome To The Jungle! But I STILL couldn't move. Anyway this happened again but to the tune of Mr Brownstone. I had to get there. I got up from my fetal possition in my tent and made the epic journey back to the Areana.

    I've never seen so many Prodigy and Offspring fans in my life! Streams and streams of people were leaving, and it took me ages to get there.  (and I'd like to say a big F**K OFF to the guy who shoulder barged me!)

    Finally I got there and it was so packed out that the only place I could stand was the back. That didn't bother me to much coz I was having trouble holding myself up anyway. Even from the back the feeling was AMAZING! I felt like I had been hit by a bus (and looked like it) but I didn't care anymore. Seeing Axl live for the first time was mind-blowing!! I even managed to sing all the words to "The Blues" and get strange looks from people because I knew the words.

    This STILL was one of the greatest nights of my life (second only to the DOCKLANDS SHOW where I was fighting fit and got to the FRONT ROW!) Yowza!!

    So that's my Leeds story. And I'd like to say...

    Say NO to LEGAL drugs.
