Hey I'm seriously considering buying a ticket from Big Green Coach and going to V Fest on my own this year - though I've never ever been to a festival on my own before. Is it a good idea? I'm 23, female and although some of my friends would want to go I don't think they have the funds or money. Also, some of my mates are going to Download so indie isn't their style really. I just want the summer 2009 festival experience!

But do you think paying £212 for the tix, camping and the coach a rip-off? Or is it a good deal?

I really wanted to go to T in the Park this year when I saw the line-up but it was clearly already sold out. Then my cuz and friends decided to go to Rock Werchter, Belgium so I booked time off work but the day I go to buy tickets they sell out! So I went on the waiting list but I can't be bothered waiting and the V fest line up looks good times. (I especially want to see Oasis The Killers, Keane, Razorlight, Biffy Clyro, Snow Patrol, Elbow, Lily Allen, The Script, Fatboy Slim, Pendulum, The Ting Tings, Dizzee Rascal, The Noisettes, Jet (Ok so I don't love them but Melbourne represent!), 2 Many DJs,  James Morrison, The Enemy, Paolo Nutini, Katy Perry, Athlete, The Proclaimers, The King Blues, MGMT, Lady Gaga, The Streets...so most of them actually.) Who do you really want to see?

Anyways, I read on here that BGC don't actually allocate the yellow campsite (even though this is stated on the site when you buy your tix). Is this true?

If you camp on your own, do you bring your own one-man tent? Has anyone (namely females) gone to a music festival on their own before? I've travelled around Europe on own. Is it the same as staying in a hostel? I just don't want it to be unsafe. But don't want to buy tix just because a friend doesn't want to go, either and I don't want to miss out by the time they think about it.

To go solo or not to go solo that is the question... Thoughts?xx
