Hook of the Day - Roger Waters "Sheep" (Live at Coachella)

by Wayne Graham

As you may have heard, Roger Waters launched the famous inflatable pig during his closing night set at Coachella on Sunday, and the poor thing just flew off and got lost. The festival's organizers have issued the following press release.



COACHELLA ORGANIZERS OFFER $10, 000 REWARD AND FOUR FESTIVAL TICKETS FOR LIFE IN EXCHANGE FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF THE INFLATABLE PIG THAT ESCAPED DURING SUNDAY HEADLINER ROGER WATERS' SET

COACHELLA organizers are offering $10,000 and four (4) festival tickets for life in exchange for the safe return of the two-story inflatable pig that broke loose during Roger Waters'
set on the final night (Sunday, April 27) of the 2008 COACHELLA VALLEY MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL. The pig escaped and floated into the desert sky just prior to the intermission between Roger Waters' back-to-back sets--marking the only back-to-back COACHELLA sets by one artist in the critically acclaimed festival's history. Anyone with information on the lost pig, should email lostpig@coachella.com.


Sure would be nice to get free Coachella tickets for life, but I wonder how much this would get ya on eBay if it were to land in your yard. Here's some video at the pig's last known location.
