Post Which festival should we all go to?

We are a bunch of useless bastard who cant decide which of the many festivals we should go to. Obviously we cant afford to go to them all, so we are leaving it up to you to choose.

Well it was kind of assumed we'd all be going to that anyway seeing as it is going to TOTALLY KICK ASS!!!

Point taken though, it should be there. In fact everyone should be there. and if you arent, were gonna kick your ass.

crowd surfing causes a hell of a lot more problems than slam dancing, i should know cos i've been hit in the head so many times i've resorted to hurting the fucks that keep their chains on, those are the worst, ever had one dragged across your ear?

nowt wrong with slamming if its done properly, no deliberate use of the elbows or fists and your fine, i've had more bruises from unintentionally (on my part) getting hit by crowd surfers than i've had in any pit i've gone into.

also most of the bands will be local and folk tend to hold back when watching local acts. hopefully it'll be so packed there'll be no choice though. <img border="0" alt="[Freak]" title="" src="graemlins/freak.gif" />

Never had the privelage of getting slapped across the mug with a chain though. I remember when i went to see Less Than Jake, Greenday and also the Extreme Festival, security were taking away chains and getting everyone to walk through metal detectors. That was a good idea. ACtually, they didnt do that at the Extreme Festival.

You guys should get a skate park set up in the car park of the doghouse, that would kick ass. Mini extreme festival in Dundee.

does anyone know and be willing to find out the lineups, confirmed or rumoured, for the major festivals this comming summer? I'm still not sure where i'm gonna go, but it looks like it'll be Reading looking at the poll results so far.

People crowd surfing should have the sense to know that the people that they are flying over are trying to watch a gig and enjoy themselves, rather than getting kicked in the head. At LB i was twated on the forehead by a fucking ass wearing shoes with steel places on the heels. Whats up with that?

Slam dancing also gets me pissed, at the same gig there was this skinny guy acting like a ponce by throwing himself into other people trying to get a slam pit going, he succeeded, but unfortunately he did not come out of it feeling too good, and serves him right. Ass.

If you are gonna slam dance, do it at the back of the hall, if you are gonna crowd surf, make sure you are only doing it to gte out of a crush or something like that, otherwise dont do it!

innit.

I have spoken. <img border="0" alt="[Freak]" title="" src="graemlins/freak.gif" />
