Never gone to one and I don't think I ever will... I hate the idea of these festivals where you get all dirty without showers and use those disgusting public toilets. Sounds like absolute HELL! And what for what? I'll load up my iPod for music, I don't need to see it live.

Fair Points! But to me there isn't anything better than seeing your favourite band/s live, it just beats the ipod hands down.

I've been once. I dragged three friends with me who didn't really want to go and it was only for one night. And they loved it so much they said we should go back this year for longer w00t

We'll see if that happens. We are going into discussion this Saturday about holiday plans so we'll see ...

I also despise festivals. Most people just go there to get stoned or laid (latter only possible because they're stoned Wink

). It's not about the music any more. + It's icky circumstances! And so overpriced!

I do like live music though, things that are live are a lot more special than on the radio or television (tennis, football, music, cinema vs. TV).

But, to end positively, you might get to see some excellent artistes, Sarah. I think they like the atmosphere at festivals.
