Is it wrong to be so insanely excited about seeing the Buzzcocks, even though they're terrible every time I see them and I should know better?

ba dum ba dum

Know what you mean. I saw them a few years back and they were fucking dire. I'll almost certainly go along and watch em again, mind.

 

[Voley]

I saw Pete Shelley once solo, too. He did 'Something's Gone Wrong Again' and, with just the teeniest hint of irony, managed to fuck it up so badly they had to restart it twice.

Fucking priceless.

 

[mr steev]

there's a band playing on the website homepage called Subgiant or something who've appealed and I expect I'll do the whole nostalgia bit with The Beat and The Buzzcocks.

Subgiant are good. They played last year iirc

I'll be doing the nostalgia thing with aos3 and back to the planet too

 

[bluestreak]

there's a 10.30 train from salisbury gets to London 12.30, so if you sort a cab you wouldn't have to leave until about 10.

assuming that's at night?

 

[El Jefe]

assuming that's at night?

yeh..

there's one an hour earlier that's faster, it's the last direct one.

 

[Flounder]

eee - your Prawns got piles!!

No hemorrhagic prawns on site.......not even with a ticket

Righty - off on site now. This thread has taken on biblical proportions
and is beyond my ability to keep up with.
Well done!!

Will hopefully see some of you on site, but if I've got a radio gaffered to my ear then I'm probably best left- there have been changes this year with layouts etc - partly due to crop rotation and partly because we can Hopefully the latter will make the whole EiiD experience even better than last year.

Please remember gates open at midday Friday and close at 10pm - opening again at 8am - there is a holding area should you arrive late. everything else is at www.lgofestivals.com

Have a really great one

 

[Flounder]

damn bloody internet. Righty - live music off at midnight. recorded music goes on until early hours. Our website isn't down, its the whole bloody server - so emails are shagged for the mo!
Luckily I don't have to deal with this, but will prod the man in charge...

 

[Firky]

What' the weather like, quick?! Before I leave for work and pack my bags to travel 500 miles for this (I must be fucking daft!)

 

[foo]

are you taking a big, or even BIG, rucksack firky?

 

[Firky]

I am, the zip is fucked and I have a cheap tent and no sleeping bag. Not even sure where my EiiD ticket is

 

[foo]

ok. i have a rusksack issue...hope you find your ticket! maybe Jefe's holding it for you?

as for lack of a sleeping bag, i'm sure you could always squidge in with dodge.

 

[Firky]

Jefe said I could borrow a jacket off him. Next up I need to organise someone to pop in twice a day to feed Murphy the big ol' fat fuck.

Take a hold all? You don't really need a rucksack.

 

[felixthecat]

I am, the zip is fucked and I have a cheap tent and no sleeping bag. Not even sure where my EiiD ticket is

I always have my spare sleeping bag in the car if you are in need.

As for myself, I have a tent crisis. 2 family members going to be in different places at the same time but one usuable tent (the boy's tent can no longer be held together with gaffer tape). So, as he is the only one who can get the 'easy' (ha) pop-up tent back into its bag the son is having that one and the mighty Tent Boy*, camping superhero, is helping me out with a new one. This means I will arrive at EiiD with a suprise tent awaiting me.................


(*Tent Boy aka Bees)

 

[Firky]

Don't talk to me about tent issues. It is a sore subject

I'll bare your offer in mind

Going to see if I can bum a poncho or something off my boss, being a piss taken Irish man with a very Irish sense of humour it'll be a bin abg or something

 

[foo]

the sun is shining, the weather is sweet
make you want to move your dancing feet...


well it is here in Cambridge anyway.

 

[Biddlybee]

Shit, there's not much time between Endorset and Beautiful Days now

Surely it's the same amount of time between them as it was before

Hobo Jones definitely can supply that!

They were ace at BD last year... especially their rendition of drunken sailor

Weather

Tell me this is wrong Weekend weather

 

[felixthecat]

Tell me this is wrong Weekend weather

The met office - usually the most reliable

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/sw/salisbury_forecast_weather.html

Looks like friday and sunday not bad , but a LOT of rain on saturday

 

[zenie]

Hmm....now, where did I put our tickets???

Packed the umbrealla, buying wellies tomorrow! No need for planning, oh no, do it all the day before.

 

[Crispy]

Metcheck is the worst. 35mm of rain on sunday! that's fucking biblical, torahaic, and quranic. I think bluestreak's got the right idea - fuck off out of there while your head's still above the waterline.

I was just about to post that. Metcheck's forecast is very very poor.

I'm an optomist so I'll believe the met office

I've got (getting!!) wellies and a brollie, what more do I need?

A mac?

35mm might require waders rather than wellies

 

[Termite Man]

Fuck the weather ! It will be sunny or I'll take enough drugs not to care .

How small are you?
