Think I might go tell a few folk. Although being Deeside, it's probably spread through the farmhouses and bothies already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcn Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Festival virginHey folksI haven't been to any sort of music festival, and I know it apparently varies one to the other, but what should I expect? I'm thinking I need wellies and deoderant :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogofish Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Good footwear, yes. Personally I hate wellies. Also a hat/suncream if it is sunny & something a bit warmer if not. Also, always pack something waterproof in Scotland! A pack of wet wipes can be pretty useful A rug to sit-on also helps. Spare bog roll!Otherwise, booze but regs on taking-in bottles & cans vary, some insist on plastic bottles only, others nothin at all so check ticket, a snack (stalls can often be expensive/have long queues). Don't pack too much tho as you will want to move around. Otherwise, a good attitude & a will to enjoy yourself but that won't be a problem for you. Just checked, the old Glassel site is still active:GlasselGig 2004 - Home - Live music festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
