You look like you've put up a valiant fight against the male pattern baldness, but it might be time to throw in the towel.

loved the unexpected turn, and your self-assessment of it.

Such a wise, wise investment.
I have to admit, I had forgotten all about this, then Shoemaker imploded in the 3rd and I started looking for distractions…found the Instagram Feed and was in hysterics. The Future Mrs Smackie was horrified that I not only encouraged, but was a lead sponsor, of such tomfoolery.
(a) I can't believe you didn't wear seersucker. Or cotton a cotton suit at a minimum. But I do appreciate you suiting up.
(b) Of all the bands you consciously chose not to see, the Cro-Mags?
© Strangely, over a decade ago my ex-wife passed out in the GWAR pit too.
(d) I think the story of the fatty should be shared with just your contributors.
Anyhow, a job well done. More than exceeded my expectations and please thank your camera man for both doing a wonderful job and for saving your life. Everybody likes a happy ending.

Julian,
Bravo man. That was a fantastic read. I'm sorry we couldn't meet - I actually passed by you around 1pm (just long enough to snap a candid photo), but I didn't have time to talk as I was headed to a posted position. I then spent nearly all of the festival behind the barricade for whatever band was playing.
I, for one, say that if you do it again next year, you do the suit again. But that's up to you sir.
I'll post the photo once I get it off my phone.

worth every penny
glad you didn't actually get hurt and glad the cameraman put an end to it when it needed to end
blood was spilled in the name of comedy
I kinda thought you were just building up the drama and tension with the camera guy saying you were out of commission and then I felt bad after I posted #wekilledjulian.
First rule of all day drinking…eating and drinking water
It was hot on Saturday, seersucker was the way to go

Found nothing. Then I found a wool Armani suit for low three figures at a consignment shop and thought, "Oh, hey, yeah, it'd be funny to destroy an Armani suit. It was fall or winter weight and didn't breathe at all, especially once it got wet. I feel like a different suit ends this thing much differently.
