Been Insane Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 If you go do not pass up the chance to see Dinosaur Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPhee Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Dinosaur JR are excellent! They played mid way up the main stage last time, wonder why they dropped so much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Been Insane Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 When Dinosaur Jr played last time it was their reunion tour, Lou had just came back after well over 10 years and the original (and definatley best) line up was back together. I suppose people were expecting them to have a big impact on the music scene and thats why they were futher up the bil, that was in 05 right? Well now they have been touring around pretty much non stop (I've seen them a few times and met them, they are amazing live and one of the loudest bands ive seen!) they have recorded a new album which I don't think sold amazingly well either so I guess they just aren't seen as the big deal that they should be. It's ashame because people don't know what they are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McPhee Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 If you don't already have one then buy it when you arrive. You can use the car/rucksack space saved to bring more booze! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platty Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 quick question to festival travelers! does anyone know a decent website to order tents etc off? i tried google etc but there are just so many and woukld rarther get a recommendation! I just got a new tent for Latitude festival im going to. Got it from Decathlon. Was £49. It's a 3 man pop up tent which are awesome as they go up in 3 seconds and are very easy to carry! If you got a store near you go and visit they have some set up so you can see. Here is the one I got: http://www.decathlon.co.uk/EN/Product_arborescence/mountain/hiking/hiking-tents/touring-tents/product_8030254/index.html All decathlon tents are waterproof tested and wind resistant tested. They say all their tents are ideal for festivals. Any of these will do: http://www.decathlon.co.uk/EN/Product_arborescence/mountain/hiking/hiking-tents/touring-tents/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McPhee Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 My tent is a heavy beast. Always have a 3 man, with a big awning, all to myself. More room for storing beer and space to drink in if it rains :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
