Yup, that's it exactly. It was one of the first anaesthetics to be discovered, but due to the varying tolerances in people only 50% could be put to sleep with it. Newer anaesthetic gases work very similarly, but are stronger.

they were hard to find on stalls at the festivals we went to last year impossible in some cases.

apparently due to some kid drinking a bottle and dying, a friends cousin runs several stalls selling shit like poppers and told us that was the reason some places banned stalls from selling them at their events.

I hate the stuff - gives me a mental headache and makes me feel a bit sick. I have mates who love it though. Funnily enough, I've always got sick atfter general anesthetic - could that be related? Sorry to make you work out of hours!

They dont!

Nitrous is sooooo much better, and doesnt give you a banging headache!

Its an awsome mixer drug with ketamine and MDMA.

Buy nitrous before you go though, or pay 3 for £5 at the festival. If you buy in bulk they should only cost you you about 30p each.

Oh and try mephedrone, absolutley quality stuff! just like MDMA (in 400mg caps) and absolutley no comedown or loss of appetite! LEGAL and only £10 a g online!

Poppers are ok, not done them for a few years but they used to make me giggle like a badger with a strawberry lollipop.

I used to work in an Ann Summers and every week when the new delivery came in one or two bottles always got 'accidentally broken' in the stock room and a few of us always gathered round and got high for a few minutes and giggle like crazy. The headaches that night were always a proper bugger but it was a great way of breaking up a dull day.

theyre no longer made of amyl nitrate. they are weaker now. all they do is give you a 10-30 second rush followed by a 60 second headache. they are shit. unless you are stoned or mashed then it just enhances your already fuzzy state of mind.

I don't understand why so many people are hung up on the idfea that 'no one can enjoy them'. Clearly some people do. I really like them, they always give me a good rush for a couple of minutes. I do get a headache the next day - but which drugs don't have side effects? They clearly effect different people in different ways.

A couple of years ago at glastonbury I lost the lid so used my thumb to cover up the top while they lasted. For about a week after my thumb was really crusty and yellow - I thought it was going to drop off!

However, since they changed what's in them - they smell shit and I'll never use them again.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
