Glade Festival...

[poului]

Yeah but I would attract a load of wankers and that's not what the festival is all about.

bloody hell, Freudian slip!

[Orang Utan]

what are you saying about ponies?

I know nothing about ponies - the only animals I've seen at HMD are bears.

 

[Pieface]

Ponies love to parade. I'm taking this one to the committee

What the glade needs is a happy hardcore tent.

Got a bit messy on the Sunday and was dancing with the trance bunnys for hours mates have been propper taking the piss as I'm supposed to be a hard-core squat party pirate but my excuse was the Origin stage was clearly the best rig at Glade. Had to give myself a slap on the way home though.

Interesting conversation with one of the bunnys went along the lines of:
Her "Yeah I like Pietrance when its proper hard and chunky"
Me: "You mean you like Techno then"

Think the Pietrancers have better looking girls though - tekno birds just dress like boys

raindance multi arena and fun fair

No pony boys though...that's more the domain of HMD

No, 'cos then you'd get a load of cheeky little kids in British Gas workmen's jackets waving glowsticks around and calling everyone over the age of 30 "grandad"

The jungle rig would be welcome though

 

[Skim]

Mmm... hard 'n' chunky pietrance

 

[MarkMark]

I for one would like to see an ice-cream van at the Glade

 

[Dubversion]

I for one would like to see an ice-cream van at the Glade

fuck yeah

 

[Skim]

Oh yes... at my dream festival there would be a massive gelateria, selling every variety of ice-cream known. With proper de-luxe wafers as well, none of your Askeys shit.

sorry... my sarcasm cleary wasnt made obvious enough!

Oi oi saveloy! (Or whatever they say in 'ardkore circles.)

You need one of those like you need a emo tent.

No really, just a guest slot from Brisk or Sy would make my festival. You lot are just narrow minded . . .

 

[free spirit]

It's good that they are completely aware of all of the issues and seem determined to resolve them.

I went to this with a large group of mates, and some of us had stuff pinched from tents on the first night.

I didn't personally have any hassle with the security, although I did see some of them behaving in a frankly thuggish manner to people, when this was totally unjustified. I'm glad the promoters were aware of the bad attitudes of some (not all) of the security.

It's a sad fact of life that there are thieves and general scum at festivals trying to rob people, and you need some hard bastards to deal with them. The trick is to ensure that your hard bastards don't also take out their aggression on innocent party people as well.

The promoters seem to have taken on board pretty much ALL of the grouses people had over what was already a pretty well-organised event. Let's hope next year's is even better!

The atmosphere at the Glade both times I have been has been the coolest of almost every festie I have been to.

How many events have you been to where you lose your wallet with £80 in, and someone hands it in, money included?

Giles..

erm kin el was that you, I'm pretty sure I was in the office when that got handed in - we were well impressed

 

[spiralx]

The mind boggles. That's just about the worst accolade you could give a sound system – "are they selling blankets?"

Indeed, a fairly damning observation lol

Ha ha, yeah, they really could do with some proper UK/European techno there, Speedy J rocked a couple of years ago and Rowland the Bastard was fine this year, but I wanted more!

Think the Pietrancers have better looking girls though - tekno birds just dress like boys

There are an awfully large number of cute girls who're into psy trance it's true

 

[Pieface]

I'm going to moonlight as one next year - see what this psy trance is all about.

I'm going to need hollis there. And pootle - definitely pootle

I was *very* impressed on collecting it on Monday morning as we were leaving!

I donated a good few quid to Accessallareas collection when I found my wallet with all the money still in.

After four of our mates got their tents robbed on Thursday night - while they were sleeping in them in two cases - finding my wallet kind of restored my faith in human nature!
