What festival are you off to?
Alt Q: I've started taking baps made with cheap chicken, ham, beef, etc, and wrapping them individually. They won't keep you fed all the way through, but they remove the temptation to grab a sneaky burger in the middle of the day.
AltAlt: Sonisphere last year, well organised, a good laugh, cracking lineup, very few downsides in comparison to others.

YES soni was great
both years i went.
i'm off to boomtown fair.
music is a mixed bag, but it was a great spur of the moment decision last yearm, and the lack of must-see bands means i can focus on what we ALL KNOW is the main point of going to festival.
getting spannered.

I think I've heard of about 5 of the bands altogether
Although I can tell you that the singer from Caravan Palace is fit, and their music isn't bad at all, so they're worth a watch.
I'm off to Bloodstock tomorrow, might even bump into Clenders while I'm there.

The weather forecast for Bloodstock is fairly good, a little light rain expected, but aside from that it'll be sunny
Just glad I've packed the walking boots, otherwise the mud can be difficult.

I forecast hundreds of ultra-bent autistic quenders wearing black and 'moshing'.
This of course includes you.

I think I've got one black t-shirt I'm taking
And I can't imagine I'll be 'moshing', as I tend to avoid doing that at festivals nowadays. Knowing the clumsy twat I am, I'd end up getting injured on the first day, and wouldn't be able to enjoy the rest of the weekend.

I once bashed with Spakka.
You can't really get much more autistic and quenderous.
His cock doesn't do that pre-cum thing.

after download this year
i don't even CONSIDER going to a festie without heavily dubbined doc martens, and a good waterproof jacket.
I also dumped a whole bottle of nikwax tent waterproofing spray onto my tent's outer shell after it let me down at download. judging by the water-repellent splats all over the front patio in the rain this morning, it's good shit.

not to mention arsequake
for name alone!
it's not really my thing per se, but it's grimy and bassy and wobbly enough that i don't get too bored, and there's plenty of real music played on instruments to keep me entertained. provided i can find my way out of my tent that is....

Have you a link to one of his rockabilly ones?
I've no interest in the dance ones unless I'm actually there, truth be told.

You see, the funny thing here is that you're using a computer to write those words down.
Everybody knows that 'real writing' can only be achieved by using pen and paper.

that's why i write everything down first in my moleskine diary
with my quill pen, then have my butler read it aloud to the other gentlemen in the smoking room. anything less than a hearty guffaw, and it gets burnhed on the log fire.
