Summer festival season

karbon · 16-02-2008, 11:45

anyone else going to anything?

i hadn't planned on it till yesterday when the T in the park lineup was announced. got myself a pair of weekend camping tickets this morning so nice and pleased with that.

RATM have been someone i've wanted to see since i was 15 but due to them not touring here and then splitting up twas sadly never possible. whole load of electro techno nonsense that's totally got my vote as well

Apparently something called One Big Weekend is in Maidstone this year, it not something I'm familiar with but apparently we stand a chance of getting free tickets because we live in the town centre, which is nice

Not got any other festivals planned but quite a few gigs on the cards

Yep, they actually had some good bands last year, when I heard about it I was expecting boy bands but it would seem its more indie orientated

Pee in the Dark was £180 for a weekend camping ticket this year! Mental.
I'd have loved to have gone but i'm away that weekend.

I can't read the crappy website text, i was sure it was an 8 until i looked closer.

£180 blimey!

Lineup looks ace though, really impressed with it.

Tickets are by lottery based on postcode so hopefully no queueing

It's all done online

Not sure if they have to offer tickets at a box office because it's a free gig.
