Hello all
Festival boards are looking a tad quiet. I want to know your festival horror stories... did someone steal or slash your tent? Did you get caught trying to scale the fence at Glasters, or did you give away all your possessions in an attempt to escape your material world and be at one with nature only to be stung on the arse.
Tell me all
Susie

    <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/eek.gif"&gt; Glastonbury 1999- friend of mine got robbed at knife-point on the first night by seven liverpudlian thugs who attempted to burn our tents down. I drank a bottle of vodka the next morning, dissapeared, and have no recolection of the five hours after that. Where was I? Watched Gay Dad and bought their album (I know!). Missed Muse play 'Uno', but caught the rest of thier set. Expected '98 style rain and mud, resulting in sunburn at Ash set.

    <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/eek.gif"&gt; Leeds 2000- riot on the last night was pretty cool, until the riot vans turned up and the chemical toilets began exploding. Shitty smoke invaded my lungs! Saw Rage Against The Machine and decided I would rule the 'mosh-pit'- bigger boys nearly killed me, still enjoyed it though! Talked to strange arab gang about kebabs and made them try vodka 'cos they'd never had it, several ill arabs later i gave up. Took herbal drugs from a stall- felt a strange sensation of being ripped-off.

    <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/cool.gif"&gt; Reading 2001- bought a ticket for £130 because they sold out... to be continued! I will be dangerously drunk from Thursday to Monday so expect some legendary stories!

    <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/eek.gif"&gt; ...right, I fell in e stream on the first night being pissed. My mate burnt his leg by standing in a fire containing a bottle of boiling lemonade (really). I missed the Strokes. My tent leaked and I am still hung-over.

    24/09- just remembereb! I didn't air my tent! Now I have the smelliest rotting tent known to man! Jesus, it really stinks! I'll need a new one before Glastonbury next year!

    So come on! What did the rest of you get up to?
