Going solo to a festival

[Beatmonkey]

Hey, I'm also going solo to Glade this week.

Gone solo to festivals before. Hasn't worked quite so well for me in the sense that I try to find a group to hang around with yet always feel like an outsider... Difficult to explain.

What I'd really like is to camp with a few other people that are also going solo so that we all have a group and are not outcast by relations in any way, we are all socially nuetral !

But yeah, I can dream

I know what you mean about the outsider factor when you hang with a group, it can lead to some akwardness but it also gives you a unique selling point as they know all about their mates but your a totaly unknown factor

I did Glastonbury on my own this year.

I met some well cool people who i hung around with most of the weekend. I had a really good time and that but what i did keep thinking was that although everything was great and that i was having fun, I wished all my other mates were there to experience it with me.

I wandered alone pretty much all weekend. In fact, I did it so successfully that I actually felt like a sideshow at Camp GT and I managed to spend as much time at the stages with Leah + partner as I did with my "hactual" friends!

(PPS I've just got back from Spain so expect about 40 threads to be bumped this morning)

(PPPS I think I might take the latter advice and create a completely separate camp for myself next year)
