        Don't forget flowers. Well if the MEN gig was anything to go by anyway. I didn't get frisked on my way in. I said to the security guard 'I could have a knife or a gun in my pocket but as long I don't have those damn flowers eh?'

Until they start strip searches, people will always find ways to sneak recording devices in.

                                      Does it include the camera-phones? That should really be forbidden. It's such a bore these days to see in the concert crowds all these phones above the heads, with little blue lights sparkling... Makes you feel you are in a zoo, breaking all the intensity that should go with a live performance.

I guess that means that I must refrain from bringing along my smoking fannypack camera with the integrated audio/video recorder... it even has cool spikes, knives and a wallet chain that I use to keep it sceurely fastened to my side while I'm moshing or crowd surfing... and I only use it to hold my lasers, flash lights and glow sticks.

                                      What a shame... I was so excited, too.
