I worked as a stage-hand for a music-festival twice a year. Walkie-talkie, access-all-areas pass and my trusty companions: zip ties and a roll of Gaffer-tape.

One of these festivals still stands out because we didn't sell enough tickets (a mere 2500, down from 4000).

About 3 years later I became a fan of a certain rock-band (great music and the lead-singer is just gorgeous) and realized in hindsight that they had been one of our headliners years ago at that very festival.

If only I had known this band back then!
I could have met them in person!
I could have talked to them!
I had had a fucking backstage-pass and everything!
Aaaaaah!
