Find Roger Waters Pig! $10,000 REWARD!
COACHELLA ORGANIZERS OFFER $10,000 REWARD AND 4 FESTIVAL TICKETS FOR LIFE
IN EXCHANGE FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF THE INFLATABLE PIG THAT ESCAPED DURING ROGER WATERS' SET

COACHELLA organizers are offering $10,000 and four 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 http://www.jambase.com/Articles/13763/10000-For-The-Pig!


SUEY!SUEY!

3. String Cheese Incident has one of the Originals
from the 89 tour. Their road mgr bought it and the only company in the country that could fix it was in Austin, so they sent it there to be fixed. During their performance at the ACL Festival they busted it out during "the Wall'. One of the higher moments in SCI History.

6. Stop the Search!
The pig has been found! http://www.mydesert.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080429/NEWS01/80429001/1026/news12


And irony of all ironies, at a golf course!
The inflatable, school bus-sized inflatable pig that floated away during Roger Waters' closing performance this weekend has been found in two parts in a La Quinta country club, according to Coachella organizers.


"That's definitely our pig," said Bill Fold, a Coachella producer.

Susan Stolz called The Desert Sun this morning saying she and her husband found a glob of vinyl in their driveway yesterday at the Hideaway Golf Club in La Quinta. Not sure what it was, they threw it away. This morning, they read about the missing pig in the newspaper and e-mailed the following to Coachella organizers.

"It is entirely possible that I have at least part of your pig. My husband and I live at the Hideaway. We found a large pile of plastic yesterday morning on our driveway. It has some blue, yellow and silver paint. I must warn you that it is not in good shape. Maybe the balloon exploded or something. However, if you'd like to check it out, just let me know. "

"We went and got the pig out of the trash and put him in the garage," Stolz said. "We have laughed our heads off."
