I wore a hooded fleece that day - I didn't live far from South Park but knew it would be around midnight when I got home so was assuming I'd be cold, rather than drenched. As it was, somewhere around the lower half of the park, on the way out to Morrell Ave, we realised that we were going to be soaked through to the skin, and gave up attempting to fight it. I think my fleece and jeans doubled in weight from the rain, but luckily we didn't get too muddy. Walked home squelching, and undressed in the hallway, dumping all the clothes in the bath to drip, and made cup-a-soups to warm ourselves up.
Although the review says "three songs later", our emails and notes at the time [I was reviewing it too] say it really did start raining during Paranoid Android - but only a little, not the big cloudburst. Enough to make everyone in a 50yd radius around me laugh, though.
