We should start a thread dedicated to shaming the Canadians into behaving like human beings this year. Or at least picking up their fucking cigarette boxes. WE KNOW WHEN THEY'RE YOURS, CANADA.

Maybe there's just one Canadian dude who smokes like seven thousand cheap, shitty Canadian cigarettes and he's giving your country a bad name.

like 5,6,7 bucks in a lot of places. washington is on the more expensive side, like 7 or 8. i think they just passed a new tax that added like a dollar to each pack. I'm so glad I'm not addicted to cigarettes. I might go to the reservation near my town and pick up a few cartons to trade or something haha.

One of my favorite things about the Gorge: Virtually no humidity. (I guess that's all relative though. I'm coming from a city with insane humidity, so it's so wonderful for it to be just dry heat and not the fucking sticky humid grossness I'm used to.)
And man I hope this thread isn't jinxing this...

I'm not a smoker, but I'm pretty sure a pack of smokes is $10-$11+ here

seriously, don't pay any attention to the forecast until like a week from thursday at the earliest. in this state, it can and will change several times between now and the 29th. as much as i'd dislike clouds and rain, it would probably be preferable to the intense heat of last year which made me ill, causing me to miss most of the yeah yeah yeahs

Seriously bring on the rain. The sun last year was deadly.

I agree. Nothing says sexy like a couple thousand females wrapped in trash bags complaining about the elements and wanting to leave early. Bikini tops are entirely overrated anyway.

based on the trend so far this month over there i can almost guarantee that it will be a solid 10-15 degrees cooler than last year, and that sounds fantastic. but RAIN? no fucking thank you.

The rain is awesome as long as its not pouring and shutting down the sets. Take the Flaming Lips UFO set the rain near the end was more than welcome

c'mon... just imagine a 25,000 person wet t-shirt contest. at least half of that is girls. and maybe a third of those are... semi-fine? don't quote me on those statistics, because semi-fine is a pretty subjective statement.

Clearly I'm late to this thread, but it looks like we all agree on the following:
-Temperature maxing at the mid-80's would be good -Sunshine, good -Last year, way too fucking hot -Clouds, yay -Rain, boo -Girls, yay
I co-sign all of this.

cheers to whatever. no matter what happens, I think we can also agree that it will most likely be one of the greatest weekends of our lives! Nine days, until mother nature either..a)has it's way with us. or b)provides us with an even more enjoyable experience. Either way, I'll be prepared for the worst with: lots of spf 60, rain jacket, warm clothes, and most of all DEODORANT.
