Had a mint time I was in a bit of mess due to 4 seasons

So I wasn't really the most social of people, as I was in a bit of a state. But it was wicked to meet the new TAs and see the old lot.

And the scallies I remember you saying about getting sprayed to me, but when I saw you put down they tried to run you over I was like ggggrrrr what fucking ****s their fucking vermin I swear the rockport, nickelson, Kappa, Addidas wearing bastards.

One thing however me, Gibbo, and Az said in the early hours it had the most weirdest people I'd seen ever at festivals. I remember Az went tried to track down a van which selled chips, and I was standing there minding my own business, and this fucking weird goth woman with blond dreads, and like pink makeup done like bags underneath her eyes, and a piercing inbetween her eyes comes over to me right in my face and says 'Don't look so worried mate' trying to make me jump out of my skin, so I roar 'Fuck off' and kept on ranting, plus that weird old woman in the techno tent during Beyers set.

I think ur all women for complaining about the mud, its not like that was avoidable given the weather. (NEXT YEAR - i suggest they put a big bubble over the whole site) The cost for everything was absolutely ridiculous. Drinks and food was a rip off (as expected) and the fun fair was a joke on price. bunjee's for �20!
The Arena tent was obviously the best - i did travel across the LAKE to the DnB arena - i thought it got rave reviews last year, but it sounded shit (i now know it was sidewinder who was playing, but hey... it was f**kin shit)
back in Main room... Mistress Barbera played a lively set, but i guess everyone had danced their arses off by then, cos as Tiesto came on everyone decided to just stand there and watch rather than dance. So anyone guilty of wrecking my night out! Although most of Tiesto's set was tunes i'd heard the previous night @ Turnmills (and were not new even then), at least the guy kept some kind of ambience and power going... after that it was downhill IMO... Fergie played a very techno heavy set, i was at least expecting some hard house tunes, but no, it was all techno, and fell asleep after about half hour. Armin afterwards started well, but again faded. Marco V was doing a better job, but still old tunes. Ferry was pretty good, but was hampered by half the front of the crowd having to stop for some poor guy having a fit from the strobe lighting.

The party was fucking WICKED!!

I really liked it! Heard some superb sets (Michel de Hey, John Digweed, Carl Cox), met some interesting people (anonymous English women , some TA's (Crusader, Az, Chinese looking TA (Mdma?),UKTA-chick (??)...sorry, lost all the names ) and had a really good time.

The athmosphere was superb, talked to a lot of people who were surprised that i was dutch and that we came all the way from Holland to GKGG. Too bad for the mud, my trousers are shite now. Hope the washingmachine helps a bit.
Also too bad i didnt talk that much with you guys. Met some of you near the Kangeroo at the start of Tiesto / End of miss Barbarella, and with Adam Beyer. Hahah, you all looked pretty surprised when i screemed "UK TRANCEADDICT LETS PARTYYYYYYYYYYY!", whahaha. You all sat down and thought "What the fuck?"
Btw, who were the LOVELY chicks at the end at Beyer? Seemed like you knew them Az

What can i say more? I loved the whole party! John Digweed rocked, it wasnt that busy in his tent, so there was a lot of room to dance..and snorring some poppers
After that it was Cox-time. It was fucking crowded, but hey, he still IS one of the best dj's in the world. He stopped his set twice, because a couple of fucking africans were so enthusiastic that they almost climbed up the dj stage. They should have shot the mofo's.

Some points of thought:
- Why the hell did all the people lay/sit/lay-in-a-come in the middle of all the fucking tents? I almost tripped several times. Go home if you are tired
- English women rock, they are so direct. They come up to you and talk. In Holland women are cocky....brrrrrrrrr.
- Why wasnt there any floor in the tents? You couldnt sit down properly.
- Is the beer always that expensive in the UK?
- At the entrance: if i wanted, i could have taken 100.000 pills with me . There was NO control at all. Bummer....else i would have taken something with me. But hey, i managed.

Conclusion: Wicked party. Thanks for your hospitality

I'm making a report (in Dutch, sorry...) with some pictures. Will post some of the pics here also..

Greetz,

here is me with toni and tim looking a bit worse for wear

Posted by magnasoma on Jul-28-2003 11:27:

Just remembered that we stopped off in a Welcome Break soon out of Stratford. It was fkin well funny - the place was about 80% gobal's and 20% normal people on their sunday's out. They were walking around the place very nervously checking everyone out as if they'd just walked onto the set of a zombie film or summink.

They knew something was wrong, apart from the mud thing, but they couldn't really figure it out.

LOL

i can imagine that, it was a similar scene on our way down to GC NEC last november, but there was 4 coach fulls of us

Posted by RobertRollie on Jul-28-2003 11:53:

Our coach didnt get there until almost 5, so i missed meeting any of the TA's there . By 7 I was well on my way to expecting a shity night... Outdoor events are always shakey at best i reckon, and by midnight it was just too much hassle to move between tents....

However, at 8 I waded to the front of the main tent for Push's set... Fucking amazing, when they opened with legacy it was like i was coming up, despite not taking anything. By the end of their set i was flying high.

Unfortunately mistress barbara ruined it for me. Keep that fucking tech shit out of the trance tent IMO. And i dunno what the fuck fergie was thinking, is he suddenly a techno dj now?

Anyway I reckon Tiesto's set was pretty good, armin was also excellent and Marco V was fucking mint, but by that stage i was off my head so i prolly wouldnt have noticed if it sucked. Ferry's set was... different. It got a bit deep and dark in the second half, bit of a change from his normal uplifting stuff, but i still enjoyed it.

Sunup, look at all the dirty skanky looking ******s. At least the coach home was quick. Just pissed off i didnt get to meet any of you.

Posted by gibbo on Jul-28-2003 22:44:

Its all gone too fast for me it seems like only ten minutes ago i was lookin forward to going. anyway it was pretty mint meeting everyone again though i managed to not meet loads of people aswell, the sets were a bit below par i enjoyed ferry and armins set best probably and marco v and push live were the biggest dissapointments how shit did he play strange world ffs. overall it was good fun and the mud seemed really good fun at the time and less fun when i had to try and hack the baked on mud off my shoes and travel home in them.

(I have travelled with the TA-NL bus)
The festival was ok. It rained quite alot, so the whole festival area turned into a mudpole. They didn't have any precautions for the rain+grass, (like wooden boards or something) so it was very nasty. The prices were skyrocket high, even the program guide cost 5 pounds. I, my legs, was still tired of my holiday, from which i returned just shortly before the festival, (i was basicly broken b4 i even entered the festival area) so i had to take a break often.... So it was a kind of disappointment. The uk people, including the girls, were great, but i had big problems to understand them. Damn accent. The music was bad/ok/good/great, depending on the dj. I have been in the Bedrock, (found a nice spot there to relax, next to the speakers, later that evening D&B, Gallery, Beach house arenas most of the time.
