Boomtown 2013 8th-11th August

[wiskey]

It's not unusual to open car parks (and therefore camper van fields) early even if the gates don't open for a while after that.

anyway I've packed nothing. I've got a touch of fear about the whole thing and keep thinking 'is this a good idea' :/

I can't keep track of who is coming to Boomtown this year, so I'm going to start a poll and add the meet up time.

Back in a mo!

Of course it is!

Just realised I have a magic carpet wristband, I bought for a friend who isn't coming now. You might as well have it.

That would be very nice of you

You're right, it is a good idea, I've had far more stupid ones and they've panned out fine

Anyway I'm looking forward to seeing everyone.

Funny how that works. Camp B looks fantastic from a punter's eye view but there were times when behind the scenes you wondered what the fuck was going on

It's always useful when they cunningly provide water.

I am really looking forward to Orkestra del Sol, Mark the Horse from Oxfam recommendation and they are brilliant. Honkstep. (should that be Honk!Step ?)

Seen them many times. They are Edinburgh based and are pretty much one of the house bands up at Knockengorroch. You won't be disappointed

 

[DrRingDing]

I have a ticket if anyone folk are still looking for one.

George is the horse, Mark's his owner

started to pack last night, realised I've a fuck ton of stuff to do today so ended up all night (plus I'm getting excited...) sorting all my festie stuff out and tidying the flat- hate coming home to mess...

off into town in a bit to get the last of what I need (fancy fuckin dress for a start!), finish packing and then our usual pre-fest smoke n drink, yeeoooooooooooooooooow! (real stupid idea when you've a 6.50am flight but it's tradition )

I have it on very good authority that a certain stewarding organisation were asked to run this and effectively laughed at Boomtown

 

[wiskey]

Of course lol I refer you back to Sunray's comment that it will be great fun for the ten minutes before it breaks.

Today I have to make a birthday cake for my dad, today the house, finish packing and go for a pint with a mate from the States

 

[ruffneck23]

for those going down tomorrow I have it on good authority that the sniffer dogs will be en force on all gates crew or non, so be careful peoples

 

[Teaboy]

For reasons of work I'm having to drive down on Friday morning on my own. So if anyone wants a lift from London let us know.

They were on the crew gates yesterday...

 

[ruffneck23]

bastards.

Mind you I saw the haul they got last year - admittedly most of it was probably low quality but they got bags of wraps of coke.

 

[sojourner]

Why the fucking dogs? This festie is known as a big 'consumer' crowd isn't it? How to put the fucking downers on it. Puts me right off does that.
