According to West, he went back and forth for more than a month with the festival runners over whether or not he would be able to fit his enormous set on the stage. "One day they would say yes ... We'd send them our specs and then they'd say OK ... Then they would send specs back that didn't fit the stage," he wrote. After a few unkind words about the professionalism of the festival, West said organizers tried to give him a daytime slot that would not have worked with his extensive lighting setup. "It's not called 'Glow in the Dark' for no reason, squid brains!" he explained. "My people worked out a compromised stage plot and a 3 a.m. time slot, and I agreed. Fast forward to the day of the show. My production manager tried to load in for 24 hours before I went on stage but the festival wouldn't allow us to do anything until Pearl Jam left the stage. Pearl Jam ended one hour late!"
