been meaning to post this for ages.

the past 2 times weve went to rockness weve travelled up the night before and had a pre-party on the beach, the security guards and workers are usually all there and sometimes a few of the smaller artists that are playing on the friday are there.

then the next morning, one of the first in, pick of the campsites :P

Just a suggestion... would reccomend it, great way to start the fest :P

Eh normally get there for the gates opening so this year will be about 10am. I only live an hour and a half away so it's no chore for us :P

In 2007 we were the first in :P

Nowhere near the same. The year we got in first we arrived 15 minutes before the gate opened and there was literally nobody there.

I always arrive early so avoid the busiest times but I can't imagine it being bad.

Na nothing compared to walking around titps site. which is a piss take. car park is infront of the entrance, simple as.

walks maybe 500 metres at the most
