i havent been to auschwitz but iv been to plenty of small festivals (since i h8 big ones)
syuper in depth review::::::::::::::
good points
- real friendly crowd
- incredible DJs (only saw a couple sets i was disappointed by)
- fucking amazing arses everywhere
- pretty good soundsystems, well mastered
- watermelon slushie
- nice locaiton in the forest (featuring cool spinning radar dish. bigup the radar dish)
- toilets kept pretty clean
- soem of the food was pretty fucking tasty
- some of the staff were friendly and gave free stuff on the last day
bad points
- militant security guards at the entrence and on patrol giving out bad vibes
- not alllowed to take fruit and snacks into the festival.... loads of ppl got their stuff binned
- not allowed to take empty water bottles into the festival... (insanity)
- cant take ur ganja into festival, or smoke it there (even tho its amsterdam....)
- food = tiny portions and ott overpriced, even for festivals
- way too far from the camp site (obviously so u couldnt just run back and grab some snacks, so u had to buy their expensive food)
- no free water ANYWHERE, which is complete and utter disregard for peoples' health & safety (easily the worst point)
- absolutely useless stnuc in the first aid tent
- water bottle was more expensive than beer (water was almost 4 euros or some shit)...
- yes the beer was "cheap" at the festival but it was half pints and the useless moron staff gave u half filled cups full of head and spilled everywhere
- absolute piss take when leaving the festival at the end of the night and also when re-entering the camp site
summary
weekend fortunately saved by:
the crew i went there with being awesome fun, a really friendly crowd, good DJs, soundsystem, location
if you arent a fan of capitalist pig festivals, dont bother. festivals should be chilled as fuck & a place of freedom to let go, they should not make everyhting an arduous fjucking hassle
if u can let the "little things" * slide, go ham with the $$$ and make the most of it, then hit it up for the lineups and booty
and make sure u stay in amsterdam for a few days before or after, cos its a really beautiful city
* litte things aka the whole experience being a bit of a ballache
