This is for all those poor souls out there who weren't among the 200,000 who travelled to the South Pacific Isle of Spight for this epic rock'n'roll festival. Although many bands played, only a handful of mostly Calgary-based ones wished to be included on the CD. Among the participants were the Puritans, New 1-2, Stagmummer, the Mistreaters, Earthquake Pills and Immortal Lee County Killers. There are 16 songs in all and some funny speakers in between, especially the stoner who talks endlessly about the wonders of hemp. This is a clever twist on the usual compilation theme.
