I had press passes to the first one of them back when it was called witnness, I just asked for them and they gave them to me! I also won 7 VIP passes because they told the press about the website first and I got on and entered the competition real early.

It was great, proper toliets, full bar, free drink! And listening to the fat fucks from the sun going on about Beck was a laugh. They where upset because you had to sign this thingie before you could take pictures. "If it wasn't for us they wouldn't have any fans, he needs us more than we need him" they would say.
