Wils Posted 11 August 2008 Posted 11 August 2008 Yep , sleeping bag and camping chair at the ready Which one are you going to?
Joe. Posted 11 August 2008 Posted 11 August 2008 I actually can't wait for when Pendulum play Blood Sugar. Everybody's going to go absolutely mental.
Unit Posted 11 August 2008 Posted 11 August 2008 Sat night i could hear the music coming from Vicky/De montfort Hall's summer sundae.(We live in Evington so it aint that far,and with the wind blowing you can even hear the planes taking off at Heathrow...) It was about 10ish and i asked the Mrs(Who is 8 months Pregnant!) if she fancied a drive to see what was happening. So we went for a drive,got out and ended up walking around trying to blag ourselves in. They wouldnt have it but the music sounded really good and there were loads of studenty type humans wandering around drunk and aimlessly!!! Got back today, was quality! I love the atmosphere at the smaller festivals like summer sundae compared to the ones like V - when i went to V I felt like I was just being advertised virgin products everywhere whilst trying to dodge the pilled up scousers

Been before? Ive never been to a festival....its more of a white man thing Sounded like a good doo and saw loads of people wanderig around aimlessly but not in a threatening manner. I'd like to goto one before i get TOO old!!!
Bellend Sebastian Posted 12 August 2008 Posted 12 August 2008 I've not been for a couple of years Raj, but it's well chilled out and really family friendly too. Loads of my mates take their kids, some of whom are still in prams. There are LOADS of people there older than you, so I wouldn't worry about that

C-man Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 You're going on a wednesday? I'm going to Reading on wednesday. I got there on thursday last year and it was fooking hard to find somewhere to pitch my tent! You just have to be smelly for one more day Anyone received their ticket yet?
Trumpet Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 You're going on a wednesday? I am, early entry Still not recieved ticket, it says on the order tracker it was despatched yesterday. No ticket tommorow and I'm finding out where it is, as its special delivery and shouldnt take 2 days..
filbertway Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Indie Joe, did you get my texts or have you changed number?
lildave3 Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 I'm going to Reading on wednesday. I got there on thursday last year and it was fooking hard to find somewhere to pitch my tent! You just have to be smelly for one more day Anyone received their ticket yet? Is there anyone even on on Wednesday? Or is it just a couple of extra days getting wasted?
C-man Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Just checked my order tracker and mine hasn't been despatched. Bit worried considering I'm setting off in less than a week.
Joe. Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Indie Joe, did you get my texts or have you changed number? I've got a new number, I did text it to you! I'll text it to you now mate. And Ben, yes it's two extra days of getting wasted/ finding a good camping spot.
Alexikokopops Posted 14 August 2008 Posted 14 August 2008 Thank fuck we have a home match on the 23rd. I need to get away from Reading as much as possible between the 21st and the 25th. After spending 5 hours in traffic one year when I drove to the festival, living here is going to be a nightmare.
filbertway Posted 14 August 2008 Posted 14 August 2008 Got the text young indie It's all set up for a Blue camp FT meet up
Alexikokopops Posted 14 August 2008 Posted 14 August 2008 Just a bit of advice to anyone going on the Thursday. If you're driving make sure that you get to Reading around 7-8am. One year I drove down and got there at 10am. Spent 5 hours in traffic, had to park in an overflow car park, and then spent 2 hours doing a couple of trips back and forth from the car to where my mates (who got there at 7am) were parked. Needless to say the next year I drove down to my sisters (30 minutes away) on the Wednesday evening and left hers about 7

No ticket tommorow and I'm finding out where it is, as its special delivery and shouldnt take 2 days.. Shouldnt worry too much pal .. I got my Download ticket the wedsneday morning I left this year I was well pissed off as it got closer, thinking shit like what if it dont turn up etc Enjoy it, I'm extremely gutted I aint going
Joe. Posted 14 August 2008 Posted 14 August 2008 Yeah, picked my tickets up from the post office this morning. Any idea when the early entry passes are supposed to arrive? And Damo, we're camping in red this year

You couldn't lend me something intriguingly shaped to drink out of for the weekend could you? Or let out your toilet?
