Another new addition to this year's Beef & Music Festival was a collection of two Bounce Houses (also known as "Moonwalks" and "Litigation Generators"), which proved most popular indeed.
When first setting up their stuff, the Illbillys noted that the air-pumping devices for these contraptions were plugged into the same circuit as was their sound equipment, but this failed to raise any eyebrows until soundcheck...as they were playing through a 3-man song while Joe was getting their sound levels dialed in, there were two sudden spikes of noise, caused by the aforementioned Bounce Houses being turned on. While Peter and JB were protected from the worst of the blasts by their in-ear monitors, Jack, who steadfastly clings to having a monitor of the non-in-ear variety pointed at his head whilst onstage, was practically knocked off his drumstool. Once the copious bloodflow from his ears was stopped, he set about replenishing his precious bodily fluids.
