| _______________________________________ [Aug 18,2005 10:54am - the_reverend ""] I remember people going to #2 or #3 and there was a sign on the club that said "hellfest was moved" and the directions led you to a place where people were dancing to ABBA. and then they moved it to the fair grounds. then to NJ. and now to good bye. |
