Who on here doesn't go to festivals?

Oafish posted on here the other day that he planned next year to have three holidays, might go to the Grand Prix, maybe some football - but no music fesivals. I don't think he's been to any this year either. So it made me wonder, who on efestivals doesn't go to festivals? I only went to two this year, and two last year - which I think is just about the minimum I could get away with still professing to be a festival fiend .... what about others?

I'm not a big festival goer as i only went to my first one 4 years ago and that was V. More to do with having a small child and no money (at the time) than lack of wanting to go.

I've only been to Sonisphere in Switzerland this year. Unfortunately i had to use most of my holiday earlier this year to be with a very ill friend.

So i've never had the chance to go to very many. I'd love to go to more, but the OH hates camping and my friends are all getting to the age where they are starting to have children and don't want to or can't go. I don't feel confident enough to go anywhere on my own.

So i suppose this sort of makes me an imposter lol, but i only ever post in discussions anyway. :unsure:

Really? I think that's silly. I mean if people can't afford to go, or like Oaf have had a kid and other priorities kick in, or someone is too unwell to go, then ostracising them from the forums too would be adding insult to injury.

    • Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.
    • No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs
    • The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.  
    • I can see them all merging along with the Tory’s . Restore curently couldn’t muster enough candidates to be a viable option . I lasted 4 mins and couldn’t watch any more . Lowe is just dull along with racist
