Just got back to the UK after a crazy 3.5 months!

Finished off with with a four day run, climaxing in a jungle rave in Playa Del Carmen on Saturday night headlined by Matthias Meyer. The video I've attached (hopefully it works) was the scenes at 6am as the sun started rising. I think I lasted until about 8:30/9am, and it was bloody wonderful. 30 quid for a ticket with travel included, and such a diverse crowd just absolutely going for it. 

Highlight was probably this remix getting dropped as well. Pure and utter goosebumps 2:25 onwards.

Spontaneously went to see Kettama this weekend and it was one of the best things I've seen. 

Void sound system, small venue. Incredible. 

Big GSH in his tour schedule. 

 

Yeah he’s unreal. Along with HAAI my favourite DJ about atm.

Watched Bushwaka in a pub in the Yorkshire hills on Sunday, great night/crowd and decent set. 

 

He descirbed it after as "Some mad place in the middle of nowhere. Often the best parties happen happen like this 🔥🔥🔥" he wasn't far wrong 😂😂😂

Wait what? Whereabouts was this? I would have totally come along had I known about it. I'm north Notts - so not too far a mission.

It was called Illicit Disco, White Lion in Todmorden. Like the Traders Club in neighbouring Hebden Bridge they pull decent names for what are essential pubs/clubs in the arse end of nowhere 😁

Same town 'Out in the sticks' used to be held in. 

 

Couple of links if they work

I hope we get a proper tour from them as well, although not sure what size venues they'd play now. 

Me too, they've always seemed to have done Nov/Dec tours last few times.    I've seen them at Bristol 02/Brighton Dome in past so a mid 2-5k type venue. Sure they'd probably do Hammersmith as well.

I saw them at Hammersmith Apollo/Odeon (or whatever it's called these days) on their last 2 tours but I think they do smaller venues outside London.

I went to Insomniacz in Sheffield. In Leeds I used to go to Stinkys on a Sunday for Back2Mine. All day on a Sunday... very odd vibe. Baseline house & messed up heads. Opened at 8am initially til midnight.w

We went to Insomniacz once after Gatecrasher and it was lethal, hard house or extreme hard house, at 7 am it was all too much haha. We did see a paper boy in there with his paper bag though haha.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
