Although money is tight, I still deserve to have fun and have some kind of holiday and so I?ve bought my ticket for Lounge on the Farm, the local music festival held in Canterbury. They are currently offering ?Earlybird Tickets? for only £65 each (instead of £95) which is a great deal considering the amount of acts that are performing and that it also includes camping too, so it hould make for a great long weekend (Fri-Mon).
I went to LOTF in 2008 and had a great time (photos here) so I know what to expect and will certainly prepare better than I did last time when I had wear all my clothes in my tent as it got really cold at night. One thing that did annoy me was that some drugdealers pitched up at 2am next to our tents and continued to tout for business throughout the night as well as playing shit music. This year they are introducing some more quiet camping areas and so I think I?ll see about pitching up there. I?ll have plenty of fun in the main area and when I get back to my tent I want to have a nice sleep instead of hearing dickheads chatting all night.
Don?t get the wrong idea about LOTF, it wasn?t full of druggies, but any festival is bound to attract people who don?t go for the music and instead go to make a few quid. This was aminor incident though so don?t let it put you off.
Anyway, back to the music? check out the line-up for last year:
There?s something for everyone in there and my aim this year is to try and see as many as possible and not just the ones I?ve heard of so I can?t wait for the new line-up to be announced.
