This year my festival of choice is ... Bloodstock Open Air at Catton hall, Derby after a loooong train journey we finally arrived at Lichfield City station to find our fellow metal heads had brought a stack of booze that we had to smuggle in ;) firstly we had to get it there after waiting for a bus which never came we got 3 taxis and divided ourselves up. Finaly we arrived at BOA site and were searched before going in we had one crate of booze confiscated not bad since we bought 10 crates =P One of our friends brought a small bouncy castle which ended up being crowd surfed when Europe closed the festival on the last night. They had some good up and coming bands on the Sophie Stage (named after the late Sophie Lancaster) a fitting memorial to a young girl who lost her life because she was "different"
The only downfall of the whole festival was the food was crazily overpriced £2.50 for a burger £2 for chips and £2.50 for a bottle of coke so if you ran out of money and didn't have a decent overdraft consider yourself screwed to hell. Luckily i took a friend who did have an overdraft ;) Thanks again Adam! Much appreciated i can tell you! I only came out of it £50 down compared to Adam who stayed an extra day and ended up overdrafting £150 =
You may think wow a blog about festivals which doesn't mention the toilet facilities.. i don't really want to relive that horror! =/
