when there is someone i really want to see.

I used to go to every single festival there was. I know it sounds like im being an old c*#t but man, the festivals back in the day were so much better than these days. I remember parklife only had 10,000 people. the atmosphere was epic, the acts were wicked and they were fresh acts every year, everyone was there to enjoy the music and have a good day. Had so many convo’s with randoms, hang out grab a drink go for a dance etc. and everyone was having a great time.

These days there is like 20 festivals a year, same acts come out every year, the crowds are insane (dont blame the promoters for trying to make $$$ but it is shit) there are heaos of dickhead wogs (not trying to be racist, my best mate is a wog but face it, there are shitlaods of dickhead lobes etc. at them), bogans and just general cockheads trying to act tough, start fights etc. You look sideways at someone and they try fire up.

A festival has to have awesome artists i want to see/havent seen in ages (soundwave came at a terrible time for me this year, line up was awesome)

I have 2 younger sisters. one 22, the other 19.

The 22 year old used to come to festivals with me and my mates and she says the same thing as i pointed out above. But she still goes as some of her friends are younger/enjoy hanging with dickheads etc.

My youngest sister is just getting into festivals and comments on how many dickheads start shit, its not a place i really want to be anymore. i had my 5 or so years of getting loose as fuck at festivals. now i party was less and it has to be somethign good to get me there. Luckily i have good mates who DJ up in Sydney who hhok me up with free entry/free and cheap drinks when i do go out. (incidently they may be playing at Future next year so i may see you there next year Lachilling!)
