    Nah, didn't think I was allowed after getting a leave pass for last year. Except the missus dropped a bombshell the other day and said she'd have no issue with me going again (Cheers for telling me two months too late!)

    Edit. Dude.

        Just like last year, there's no one in the line up I really want to see....

        Shame, coz this year and last year I could easily have gotten tickets... when I've wanted to go, they were rarer than rocking horse tulipe

                Me too (never paid ), I've not been to Bestival but I've done the Isle of Wight festival 3 times but like many people of my age I'm a bit stuck with a toddler now.

                This looks good mind: http://www.campbestival.net/

                It's organised by the same guy (Rob D Bank) who also does Bestival but it's aimed at people with young kids, Dorset isn't too far to go either.
                Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                  Yup, I know....

                  Don't want to see any of those...

                  I appreciate that the craic is in the being there and the bands are a bonus. But I'm farked if I'm going to travel from Newcastle and spend (what is it this year?) £170 and there's no-one I want to see.

                  Taking the kids to Download though. 2 days of Modern Metal for them and me being doting dad (probably complete with earplugs) and then Classic Rock Sunday for me

                    Mrs Ferret let me get a ticket for my Birthday so as long as the pig flu doesn't get it cancelled I will be there. Fingers crossed a mate has sorted some backstage camping too so could be a luxury weekend.

                    Looking forward to:

                    Eveson
                    Stanton Warriors
                    Skream
                    Caspa

                    Will be dupstep frenzy this year

                    Sod the headliners and big acts, lots of interest to see this year.
