Hey All,

Just curious anyone planning on going to Sonisphere alone? I am going to Glasto and Download with different people but no one seems up for this one so considering going on my own rather than missing it!!

Am sure it will still be awesome either way - just curious if anyone else was considering going on there own!

It's looking likely - Download seems to be a pretty big draw for friends this year but I'm ruled out of that one cos of work

I might meet up with some people at the fest but so far it's a solo Sonisphere for me - but then as long as I've got some bands to watch I think I'll cope :P

Find people on here, or go to the official forums, and get chatting/ join one of the camps (there is one - camp loner that is specifically made for those going on their own). This is a good way to ensure you will have people to camp with/drink with at the festival. I know people that went on their own last year and had an awesome time, and I myself have made many friends from the festival too, so it'll be fine :P

Does anyone own the moon? Hypothetically, If I went to the moon on a self-built craft, what would I own?

I'm going by myself, as i did last year too. Its fine tbh, end up making friends everywhere you go and get to do what you want whenever you want! Its a pretty short festival anyway so theres too much to do in not enough time to get lonely!

I am a single female going on my own. That sort of thing doesnt bother me..spent 2 weeks in Canada/US in Feb travelling alone. Much prefer it as dont get in arguements about what bands to go see etc etc..

I was going alone up until yesterday when I had 4 offers of people wanting to adopt me for the weekend. Do you think it was to do with the French Maid outfit I have planned for the Friday Party? Hmmm....

I went on my own last year - single female - and it was brilliant. I decided I was safer on my own at a metal festival than any other. I'd joined Camp Loner through the official forums and met up with them. I'm in Camp Loner again this year. They're a fabby bunch of people. There's some newbies joining us this year.

You can find us on the official forums, and we've also got a Facebook group which we'd encourage new Loners to join, because we use Facebook for the exchanging of phone numbers and stuff nearer the time :)
