Solfest - who's going?

[sojourner]

Tangerine and I are going

Yay!!



It'll be ace to see you two again - and Shirl, and William, and Tort and janeb, who I've never met

moose - but..but..you have a hippy wagon!

It does look like a really good festie actually - I'm not mad on the Levellers anymore, but perhaps it would be nice to hear some of the old stuff, for nostalgias sake

 

[sojourner]

Seriously thinking about it

Gwan pogo - it'd be great to finally meet you. I owe you a pint over the tooth debacle last year anyway

 

[pogofish]

I will do my best - especially as the ash-scattering relatives mean I am highly likley to have to miss one or other of another two favourite fastivals.

You're reading this thread a lot mrs, for someone who doesn't want to go

Just send mr moose off to Devon with his mother and you get yourself up to Sol fest. Or better still, fix mother-in-law moose up with a nice bloke and get both you and mr moose there.

 

[moose]

I may not be going, but I like to see what the hippies are up to

 

[sojourner]

Yes, I'm a total hippy me - what with my short hair, my business suits, my car...

Shirl is too.


Actually...she really is, isn't she?

 

[Dubversion]

scratch most hippies and you'll find a capitalist...

 

[sojourner]

I shall try that then Bono - look out for a hippy riot at Solfest on the news, with lots of longhairs crying at the St Johns Ambulance tent holding gashed arms

 

[pogofish]

Urban encampment anyone?

 

[sojourner]

Urban encampment anyone?

I was thinking that...me mate's bringing her nephew so I've advised them to go in the family field so he can sleep...but I don't really fancy the family field meself!!

 

[MsShirlLaverne]

Shirl is too.


Actually...she really is, isn't she?

I am not a bleeding hippy

 

[MsShirlLaverne]

Urban encampment anyone?

That sounds like a plan

 

[sojourner]

I am not a bleeding hippy

No, you're a blonde hippy now

 

[Tort]

i judge the hippyness of a festival by their dance tent...

"Stunning décor will add to the feel as the global beats take you to heaven and back."

Nah fuck that! It's just a tent full of hippies!

 

[William of Walworth]

at the above ....

 

[MsShirlLaverne]

Nah fuck that! It's just a tent full of hippies!

That tent will do me

[free spirit]

<works on persuading free spirit to go >

lol - we'll see eh... there was some dissent in the ranks last year with solfest kicking one of the original crews out and them doing their own thing instead on the same weekend IIRC... our lot sided with the non-solfest side... hippies eh

Yeah but you know how it is with hippies, you can find new ways of getting back on side... just pass em a cider and a spliff and confuse em like

Would be great to see you down there if you can make it. It still seemed pretty good last year onsite for late night partying -- do you know the 'Disco Du Fromage' lot from Yorkshire?

 

[PursuedByBears]

Finally got Mrs Bears to agree to go to Solfest and I've just booked the tickets!

Apparently there's less than 500 tickets remaining

Simon (the organiser) said 650 last week so that makes sense. I only decided to go in July last year!

 

[pogofish]

Bugger, looks like I'll have to bite the bullet & order a ticket on the hope that I can go then?

Go for it, you won't regret it

 

[pogofish]

I'm having visions of turning-up with my cousin's boys & a pile of ashes in tow - one would love it but the other & his spoiled suburban-American "princess" of a girlfriend would probably have the screaming abdabs!

Hmm, maybe I like the idea after all!

 

[tomaso]

great festival can be family friendly, perhaps a little hippy but lots of friendly people and not too big to loose everyone.

Got eat static who i think are really fookin good system 7 fusetrax crew and me! in the dance tent.

Id recomend it

If that photo of the dance tent had been taken at night would look a little more appealing
