so who's off to V then? i'm leaving for weston park tonight so we dont have to queue for too long tomorrow! really looking forward to seeing hanson, charlie simpson,you me at six, good charlotte, goldie looking chain and gomez. the rest is a bit pants for me, but i'll be smashed so who cares!
I'm going to Chelmsford but not able to leave until late tomorrow. Not holding out much hope for a decent campervan spot. Out of all the bands I'll be keen to see The Manics, Primal Scream, Squeeze, Ellie Goulding and Kaiser Chiefs. Might try and watch The Script but only because my mates in the band. Got Bestival next and have already done Isle of Wight Festival. I don't remember much about that one. Stu
i was the first ever person to walk through the gates at the first ever V festival in 1996 at Chelmsford! now a days I would never go again
^ if i had my way, i wouldnt be going as i had an offer of £350 each for both of my tickets, unfortunately i got them for mels birthday so we have to go!
ha ha, thats a great story! i went to weston park that year, my god it was horrendous, so much mud and rain!
Went to Weston a couple of years ago, great line-up (Snow Patrol, Pendulum, Killers, Elobow and including what I believe was Oasis last British appearance) but wouldn't go again. Compared to other festivals i've done it was all a bit dirty and (dare I say) chavvy. Don't get me wrong, had a great time, just had better elsewhere.
completely agree sparx! i'm a download person myself. v is really poorly organised, but nowhere near as bad as reading!!!!!!
I'm doing Shambala next weekend http://www.shambalafestival.org/ I don't think you can get much further away from 'V' as a festival concept. Really looking forward to releasing my inner hippy (which, to be fair, isn't buried that deep).
