So maybe the pig wasn't supposed to drift up, up and away during Roger Waters' set Sunday night.

Check out this press release I just got, now that I've awaken from the post-Coachella coma-like state.

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 and 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 e-mail lostpig@coachella.com.
