i'm in an uproariously good mood
i am leaving this job in 5 hours and will be going to festival tomorrow, and the weather looks GREAT.
reckon you can sink my fragile hopes of joy with your withering invective?
alt q: what Food do you take to festivals? i tend to favour stuff you can kneel on while rummaging frantically for something in your tent, and can stay out in the warm for a while without becoming inedible- ie granola traybakes, oranges, jerky,flapjack, and meal-in-a-tin shakes.
alt alt: best uk festival you've been to and why?

I've only been to festivals three times
and of those, Glastonbury 2000 was the best by far. If you need a "why" then you weren't there man, you weren't there.

but the vast majority of the music there is not to my taste (note- i didn't say shit) and the price puts me off.

Altalt: *pulls up chair* Did I ever tell you about the 'Woodstock of the 80s',
the Treworgey Tree Fayre oF '89? I have? Well let me remind you....
I cannot put into words how fucking brilliant it was. Not only did I see pretty much every band still going that I wanted to see over the four days I was there, but it was my first unsupervised weekend away from home. It was a life-changing event for me.
www.ukrockfestivals.com/treworgey-tree-fayre-1989.htmlJust look at the pictures. This was the Real Deal and its like will never be seen again, sadly.

It was like being at a medieval horse fair or something,
with grubby vagabonds all over the place etc. Those old festivals were like something outside of time, they really felt to me like I was connecting to an ancient British tradition of such things that goes right back to pre-Roman times etc.

Alt alt: Without question it would have to be All Tomorrow's Parties
Specifically the one curated by Shellac in 2002 was the best one ever, but I have never been to a bad one.
The line up is pretty much unconditionally guaranteed to be good (according to my tastes at least), there will be someone new to discover; you are not compelled to drink some shit beer, as there are no corporate sponsors; no camping - you stay in a chalet with a bed, a shower, a toilet and cooking facilities; let me just reiterate part of that: no festival toilets; no separation of punter and artist - they're all staying in the chalets too - that noisy cunt next door is Kim Deal.

Green way to al fresco dumping.
(1) Take your trusty hand axe, which is also used for chopping wood for fires. DON'T cut live trees, it doesn't burn well and you fuck the tree.
(2) Cut a V shaped wedge out the ground, larger than the mud baby you intend to park.
(3) Deposit, wipe and place loo roll/Daily Mail into the hole.
(4) Replace the divot.
Much nicer than a horrendous festival bog, and you don't leave shit on the ground for a fucking bare footed hippy to step into. On this subject, take some decent footwear too. Boots are best, if rain expected, then welliebobs.

What festival are you off to?
Alt Q: I've started taking baps made with cheap chicken, ham, beef, etc, and wrapping them individually. They won't keep you fed all the way through, but they remove the temptation to grab a sneaky burger in the middle of the day.
AltAlt: Sonisphere last year, well organised, a good laugh, cracking lineup, very few downsides in comparison to others.

lucky you're not attending then!
you'd fucking HATE this.
also- the food here is actually bloody good for a festival. the rotisserie chicken, gravy, and roast rosemary potatoes was the top hit last year, btu the burger bar, veggie falafel stand and mexican place were all splendid. and i'm not talking 'splendid because i'm smashed' i'm talking if you went into a nice cafe in brighton and got served that food, you'd smile, eat and pay.

I don't hate metal, you patronising flid.
But I don't see why pricks should think that electronic music is any less 'real' than music made with 'traditional' instruments.
A musical instrument is an object which can be used to make music. This means that computers and turntables are just as valid as guitars and drums. I assume you'd rather listen to McFly than, say, The Prodigy then?

i wasn't talking about electronic music
read the damn post again
i'm talking about the shit, repetitive,( example here- house music) tripe that has NO variation, just 'here is a 4/4 beat. now here is a sample of a woman going 'oooh baby yeah' autotuned to fuck, drop that in every four bars. now here is a short piano riff. do that for three hours, and if they stop dancing, throw in this sample of someone hitting a small child with a shoe'
for example, i saw dan le sac the other month and he was playing an instrument, which happened to be am MPC.
i saw a lot of other dj's too, who were blending other people's songs into each other. THAT is where i draw the line between making music, and being a fucking playlist operator.

House is by no means all like that.
Only the chart bollocks is.
But nice to hear a considered, thought through point of view.
DJing is far more than just playing someone else's tunes. It's a fundamentally different performance paradigm to live music, you witless spazwit.
