...'opened and read it said they were' ROCKERS

apologies that was awful

_slavo_ 11.27.2009 06:40 AM

so, how's the situation with facilities over there in the festival area? food is the thing that gets my special interest - is there any grocery store or something there? are the chalets equipped with kitchen equipment?
the reason i'm asking is if I'm supposed to carry any food with me or it's not necessary.

also, what to wear? is it cold in this location these days?
i've heard some news of Britain being especially windy recently.

you only need warm clothes from your chalet to the entertainement centre. all the stages are there...

you can buy food at a supermarket in the entertainement centre, but that ain't cheap. there is however a supermarket in Minehead (but i haven't been there last time).

depending on the chalet you booked there might be a kitchen (if it is self catered)

Guys check the ATP page, MBV are playing an extra rehearsal gig on the thursday night. You can pay a small amount to see this and get into your chalets a night early.

And slavo, if it'll be anything like it has been recently, bring whatever really warm clothing you have.

There's a tesco's and Mcdonalds literally 5 minutes walk from the place and a burger king in the place.

it depends what kind of chalet you booked if you have a kitchen. i would recommend bringing some food with you though as the only food available on site is junk food and eating that for three days might give you the shits

yes, yes, yes I wont miss LB. they play on Sat., well at the same time as MBV, but they play on Fr., Sat. and Sun. or is it going to be different color wristbands again? even if that, I've seen them twice this summer....

SY are on Sat. (it looks like it's) at 20:45 to 21:45. right time, but it looks like only an hour show.

hmmmm Primal Scream or Yo La Tengo? they're on in the same time. well I've seen Yo La Tengo this summer, never Primial Scream....decisions, decisions.

hehehe Sun Ra for a afternoon cup of tea....nice.

cheers for time schedule!!

This is awesome, thanks.

Don't worry about bringing a ton of groceries with you, Slavo. There is a supermarket about ten minutes walk from the site, and I'll be going there most mornings to buy bananas, which are staple diet at the moment.

_slavo_ 11.28.2009 02:53 AM

cool, thanks.
so, MBV are playing every single night or am I getting something wrong here?

stu666 11.28.2009 04:42 AM

yeah every night, they're doing the wristband thing i think. you have to choose which night you want to see them. it's got to be friday or sunday though. can't miss lightning bolt

I don't think you get a choice, do you? You just get what you're allocated.
