Thats what festivals are all about!! We wont be getting there till late afternoon/early evening on the thursday, still loads of space last year when we done this, the first night tends to end up as a monumental drinking session especially with the campsite bar and live music being on!! Hog roast is a added bonus!!

In the campsite the bar is a cash bar and wasn't too bad, but the big supermarket down the road is cheap so you just get loaded on beer before you go in! In the main arena the bar is tokens only and expensive.
No real chance of a lay in either as the main stages play music in the morning before the arena opens, last year it was mostly Symphony X if i remember rightly!
Really looking forward to this now!

Last year it was just a small marquee, nothing special.

Me too, really badly. But I'm running out of time, and I very much doubt I'll be able to get the Thursday, Friday and Monday off work.

Yeah, I think sick leave is the best option here ... its not like anyone in Witham has ever heard of this county named 'France'

Anyhow, I just got my tickets!!!

I understand there's a bunch of people from these boards coming along?

Torso off here is going as well.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

im booking my travel tomorow,

we will need to find a way to all meet up and potentially camp up together?? Or at very least meet up in the arena its self, cause i need some people to watch suicidal/sacred reich/ etc with!

does anyone know if Gama Bomb are going to be able to hang around after they play? would be epic to hang with them for a bit after they play the opening set
