Most of the PA's were Slovakian except the outdoor arena and dungeon which was brought over from uk(NCA rig). There's gonna be alot more visuals i reckon this time and prob bigger PA.

I've found some pictures on the net..... looks nice, maybe a slightly bigger system could of been used but i guess its all down to costs & travel and as i wasn't there i cant really comment to be fair. Would be good fun working on something like this, big over spec'ed systems everywhere & you cant tell me a huge outdoor laser show wouldn't go down well :)

Ummmm am guessing they must of trucked everything over...... rather than shipped.. we have our own truck & driver which could help things maybe :4: .

Ohh its to getting late now :H: & need to be up in morning plus am just going on & on & on now so am off.

I'd definitely recommend doing what me and my mates did last year which is staying extra time either side of the festival and doing other stuff in the area.

We found this beach near Pula

Fuck all people there really. Went swimming. Jumping off shit around there too

We also saw the best sign ever in Pula. haha

The main arena had all the speakers at the front so was really quiet unless you were squeezed in there.

Highly recommend camping if you think you can handle it(I just about managed). Really cheap and nice campsite, nothing like leeds fest ones lol. Was great to be in the heart of the action and they have great dj's on the beach too, a lot of my mates in apartments seemed to miss all those throughout the day.
Having said that the campsite is not the place to sleep in. Tents got very hot and music starts at 12 I think.

Taking nos this year, at the prices they went for last year I will make a profit on the trip lol.
There are so many fucking idiots about though. Fuck being surrounded by them drunkenly yelling the stupidest shit I ever heard 24 hours a day
I didn't think it was too bad. Hope that doesnt mean I am one of the idiots :corntard:

I guess I would say you could always walk off somewhere else if you did find it all becoming a blag. Last year there was definitely enough space on the campsite so if you went far enough away from the action you could have a decent area to yourself which might provide a bit of an escape.

Pretty blaggin. We seemed to spend ages finding stuff at inflated prices. Weed seemed to run out by the end but was alright quality. Can get speed from the locals but I think its nasty as fuck. Mandy was hard to get. Was quite a lot of ket around at first. Probably helps if you know people behind the scenes, from what I heard they seemed to be hogging it lol.

Also watch out for the undercovers. They all stuck out like a sore thumb last year (being the only 40-50 bouncer lookalikes not dancing) but can always be unlucky. My mate got searched but luckily somehow they missed the one important bit of his wallet.

this, definitely. one of the local guys fancied my aussie friend and took us both into this lil secret hangout right in the middle of the fort.. the drugs they had in there, with security standing right outside the door, oh my days. careful though, they aren't the friendliest to most people there, seems they're convinced all the non-croatians have bad intentions or something. also, their "LSD" was a different breed of beast that i wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Doing LSD with some dodgy aggy croatians does not sound like fun

nah most of them are really sound. locals seemed well nice. only the ones involved with dodgy dealings seemed slightly aggy, no worse than in Britain though.
Dunno if thats good or bad :confused:

nah don't think i would generalize them as aggy, maybe just a bit hesitant to warm up... after all, it was several thousand totally pissed foreigners on their stomping grounds.

All the Croatians I met were sound, met three joke guys next to the medical area in the campsite, didnt have the best taste in dubstep (imo) but were funny as fuck! all the bar staff seemed pretty nice as well

Failed horribly last year to sort out a big ninja meet. Only met ninjas I already knew.

Oh and stalking Ashley of course.
