Roger Waters' Coachella Festival pig recovered!Residents at the swish Hideaway Golf Club in La Quinta, California, had a big shock on Monday morning, when the shredded and completely unrecognisable remains of Roger Waters' pig was found in a pair of neighbouring driveways.Coachella's producer Bill Fold said at the scene: "That's definitely our pig", adding that it had initially drifted as far north as Highway 111 before blowing back south as it ascended.The householders - one of which coincidentally enough was wearing a Wish You Were Here t-shirt as she discovered the shreds at the front of her house - will split the cash reward and each pair will get four Coachella tickets for life, Fold said.
