Bloodstock Open Air 2009 anyone?

[EmsyHammer]

we put ours up on wednesday...it is brand new so everything was fine and really easy to put up!

home for 4 days!

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Me and my dad have just put ours up. It's really easy to do, but I had forgotten how epicly huge it is... It's a 4 man tent which is high enough for me to stand up in (and I'm 5 foot 10!). It's got a porch big enough for 10 people.
God I love my tent. Is that sad?

[EmsyHammer]

its not sad, you have to love what you will being living in haha, as long as you dont hump it while drunk we will be fine!

wow 5'10"....im 5'4"...i feel so small hahaha

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

I might
My mate has just bought a bigger tent that ours Better not be better or I will be displeased! Ours is the tent of envy! (I have been ranting on about this for 2 days now... It may be the start of tent wars!)
And to make you feel even shorter ... I'm normally in my New Rocks which make me 6 foot ish

[EmsyHammer]

i felt really small just then, but i realised my friend Jan is slightly smaller than me so i dont feel as bad ahahahahaha (this has made me laugh so hard) hahaha

i will have my knee high dr martens on so i'll have a few inches!

our tent is poop so you will hail victorious over ours, it doesnt even have a full top sheet it just has a panel to cover the netted part on the under layer...thats how poop it is.

you should join the tent thread on the Bloodstock forum and battle!!

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Do you use the BS forum? You going to that meet up?
I might just go do that ... I always forget about the BS forum

And if Jess's tent is bigger than mine, I will come and gloat around your tent to make me feel better

Anyone else seen the stage times? I've made a pretty little page out of them, complete with Thor's hammer decorations. And if your wondering; no, I don't have a life.

I was browsing sleeping bags online and my OH helpfully informs me he has one I can borrow and I have been going on about it for ages shame he isn't coming, I am really looking forward to it now though!

[EmsyHammer]

i have been a long time lurker, just joined up recently.
i'm not sure if im going to the meet. isn't it before Insomnium? or something.

i have made my own sheet with all the times on and what not but no pictures on it lol!!!


im glad you have a sleeping bag now!! only 1 and a bit weeks to go!!!!

mon ladies!! LETS GET CRUNK!!!

*tad over excited*

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

yey for saving money!
My sleeping bag is too thin and I spent most of last festival freezing! My brother is lending me his though this year

Edit to add -would it be worth posting up a picture of ourselves in here just so we can keep an eye out for each other?

[EmsyHammer]

when i dye my hair this week i will post a new picture of me on here if you want.
i was wondering if we should exchange mobile numbers or not?!

i know shadowthrone (amy) isnt there until friday so she wont be able to have thursday night drinkies.

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

I was thinking the same thing.
I just thought piccy's might be a good idea in case they never release an official site map as there has never been one before. Then if we can't think of somewhere to arrange to meet up, we can just keep an eye out for each other?

[EmsyHammer]

i mean the one place where people seem to be meeting up is a the bloodstock arms so we could arrange to meet there. i have posted in the ask the organisers thread about a map but no reply.
i think both you and Amy will be easy to spot especially you with your dreads!!
if you want i can PM both you you with my number?

xxx

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Could do, we'd just have to work it around the bands we want to see!
Yeah you can PM me your number

[EmsyHammer]

WOOP WOOP

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Yey!

[ShadowThrone]

I won't have dreads unfortunately! For the first time ever at a festival, arrgh!

Would still be good to meet up at some point, but yeah I won't be around until Friday.

I can post a pic if it will help! Ermmm, I'm blonde, have quite a lot of ink and will be carrying a viking horn, which doesn't narrow it down!!!!!

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

No it doesn't!
Well I'm 6foot when I'm in my New Rocks, and I have red hair which will be in dreads (Mixes of green and blue).
What day is best for everyone to meet?
For me the poorest day line up wise is the Friday, and as we have a map we can now choose somewhere to meet up lol

[EmsyHammer]

well anytime before 3 on a friday is good for me as i want to see all the bands after 3 on the main stage apart from arch enemy which is when i'm popping over to see Malefice.
i mean we can also meet at night in the camps sites if we look out for each other too.

i will most probably have my cowboy hat on purple and black hair, napalm death top or night of the living dead top. and im a larger lady haha

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Sounds good to me as I was planning on seeing Municipal Waste & Katatonia (<3) anywhoos

[EmsyHammer]

here is my friend Jan i was telling you about Sami.

my friend Jan
Johan Söderberg

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

The image of your mate wont load for me
This time next week.. heh *GLEE*

[EmsyHammer]

i think i sorted it out.

this time next week, we will just be arriving there me thinks and carrying all the heavy bags to the campsite!

then opening a strongbow!

[<<Miss_Sami>>]

Yes you have - I see what your talking about!
I think your a day behind sweeties, tis Friday today

[EmsyHammer]

hahaha omg it is friday!

i have lost a whole day
what the hell have i been doing?!?!

well in that case i will be seeing Municipal Waste drinking expensive Cider and getting wasted with the waste!

[Zeddread]

Oh! I had no idea there was a BOA thread

I finally got my ticket yesterday. I had to borrow money off my dad to do so, which I HATE, but only because my stupid ass of a previous landlady is finding it really hard to give my deposit back, and I didnt want to miss Bloodstock because of her. I have a budget of £30 to last me over the weekend, and buy my booze and food! EPPPPP!!

But WWAHHOOO! I'm so glad I decided to go.

I won't have dreads unfortunately! For the first time ever at a festival, arrgh!

I wont either, for the first time! I dont have any red ones, and I dont have the money to make/get any I'm going to put my loose extensions in, so I should have long red hair.
