I was at oxegen last week and it was ridiculous. First off you pay €150+ to actually go to the festival, then you get there and you have to pay €10 for a timetable to actually find out who's playing when. The other thing was that they didn't let you bring your own drink into the arena, so thats another €5 a pint. What about the people that don't drink Heineken? It's insane.

Why would you need electricity for a camper van anyway? I thought you could run the electrics off the car battery. It’s the same deal at the Midlands festival.

This is just yet more crap, and they can fuck right off if they think they're getting my money this year. To be frank, Electric Picnic this year is a big rip-off, whatever way you look at things.

They really know how to milk a festival. Seriously, that weekend will cost some people their entire months wages. But Damien, you're not considering the campervan are you? Ugggh.
