A festival: http://www.boomtownfair.co.uk/home



Pretty cool, they like build a city with all the stages and bars and shit. Havn't properly been before only broke in for one night last year, it's only 15 mins from my house so i should go really.]

This is actually amazing. Boomtown is the NUMBER 1 hippy/crusty festival in the area bar none. A whole new side of you we've not seen before Chris. :h:

I'm going! First time, uber excited. Last tent festival I went to was Glade, which this seems to have replaced.

Gonna see Kahn & Neek, Swindle, but I'm absolutely looking forward to just wondering around in a daze, there's so much to do!

Mason, do you know what bar you're working at?

Yeah I heard this is where Glade was, so past experience tells me to camp on one of the hills.
I dunno about the whole 'camping district' thing though, someone told me that it's better to go and camp near the Downtown as that's where most of the good shit is?

Yeah man no idea about camping as havn't camped there before, will have a talk to my m8s who have been before and see what they say. Although i think the volunteers have separate camping area but that will probably be boring and gay so don't really wanna stay there, although i do get access to a shower and a cheap canteen if i stay there lol.

This is enough to do it on it's own, I'm precious when it comes to shitting and showering at festivals.

Are you coming to London this Friday? I'd like to talk more about it with you like a gaylord as I only know my mates going and the official forums are a bit shit.
