Seriously. Save for web killed those colors. Imagine the water as the color of grape Kool-Aid, and picture everything else even brighter than that.

That's like the last day at school back home, but with color instead of water baloons.
So, like, a million times cooler.
This tops the beer festival!

What's the back story on Holi? Why is it celebrated? How do the colours tie in?

Wow..... from that page you linked to....
"A special drink called 'thandai' or bhang is also consumed sometimes, which actually contains small amounts of marijuana(Cannabis sativa)."
I'm sure that's an old custom. I didn't see anyone drinking no crazy concoctions. Although it WOULD explain a lot.

Everyone in my neck of the woods was all into it. I'm glad I live in the slums.
I got to work today and all the middle class people were all "Pah! Puh! Huh! I don't celebrate Holi! Puh! Huh!"
I was the only one who showed up streaked purple.

There are people who say that and they are the ones who are targetted the most.
In the end though, everyone takes it in the spirit of the festival.
