Overkill

Glade Festival is Britain's biggest and best non-corporate electronic dance music festival, with a proper havin' it vibe. CANCELLED!

Overkill

Big ups for getting the tent working when I heard security say on friday it might have been cancelled altogether I was gutted as it was the main reason I was there. On the minus side the sound at times was so quiet that you could hear people talking at normal volume next to you and even hear the sound of the main stage in the distance. I don't really understand why all the other tents had decent volume apart from that one? not only that but the volume was fine one minute and low the next. Total dips in sound from act to act as well. Plus the sound guys didn't respond even to requests to turn it up. On the plus side the music was amazing Enduser, Aaron Spectre, Ceephax, brilliant stuff . Also who was the guy who played before Snares dressed up as Beethoven?

Beardieman and Scotch Egg on the sunday was an experience. I enjoyed standing just outside in the sunshine watching all the casualties walk out with a look on their face that said 'Why did I just put myself through that?'

Oh, I must get my photos up and show the pics of the lake where the floor of Overkill was meant to be on Friday morning.

Haven't put them up yet as my digicam seems to have died today and I'll have to find another way to get the pics off the SD card.
Top one. Nice one. Get sorted.

Overkill was amazing, as expected, apart from the rubbish sound levels :( But props for them opening it up again!! The Bang Face night was my hightlight I think!

Hahaha! Shige's a good mate of mine and while I love the man I know he can run over if not politely nudged! And for the record Coki (DMZ) wasn't getting at all annoyed by Shige running over that was just me being overly anxious...Coki was very chilled and a lovely feller.
