Benicassim

[Blue Smarties]

I didn't mate me and a few lads had an apartment in castellon. Was weird there - loads of apartments but absolutely no one in them! There was us in an apartment block of about 10-15 floors and we were the only ones in! I met a girl who camped though and they only got there late so the spots they had left were shit, meaning she had a tent right next to the toilets where it stank of piss, so don't be too late! Her and her mate got a hotel after the first night. We book hotels outside of beni where they're reasonably priced (castellon last year, oropesa this year) and just buy the shuttlebus passes which run all night

Think we just got our tickets form the official benicassim site

There were plenty of City shirts there last year btw, from what I saw there seemed to be more City than anyone else, with a lot of the wembley 99 shirts about



The organisation has been a shambles in a few ways, mostly in which they've had fuck all acts (got very lucky with the libertines) and even announced them in a shambolic manner (mostly). The headliners are also all wrong (Nutini and Tinie Tempah FFS)

The lineup at the end of the day is a long way from shocking though - blue smarties appears to be into his parklife so we'll leave him to roll around to kendrick lamarr in the mud with a load of chavs whilst we bask with senoritas in the sunshine to Weller, Kasabian, Libertines, James, Charlatans, Manics etc ;-)

Haha, Fat el Hombre has it right with the organisation. Not a fan of RnB though mate, Parklife is superb for the sets they get from the DJ's - not the Snoop Dogg shite! For me Tinie Tempah, Ellie Goulding, Lily Allen, The 1975, Paolo-fucking-Nutini, Kodaline, Razorlight, Automatics, etc. ain't for me. Kasabian, The Libertines, Jake Bugg, and The Courteeners would have been my pick, the rest are shit (considering it's the 20th anniversary and they promised to go big - Tinie-fucking-Tempah and Paolo-cunting-Nutini as headlines?!).

It's been a disappointment mate especially considering they were supposed to be having a major line up as it's the 20th anniversary. After it almost falling through last minute last year (hopefully it won't this year!) I won't be risking it next year

The first acts announced was promising, think it was Kasabian, James, Charlatans etc and it seemed a good start. Then came Katy B and Ellie Goulding randomly announced, and fuck all after that. Beni got VERY lucky with the libertines, and I woulda put chase and status and weller with someone as headliners instead of tine tempah and nutini (or something like that). I still think there's just about enough there to go at

I'm currently sat thinking of how to sneak vioka into the festival if anyone has any ideas. Best one I've got is taping little bottles to my gooch area

Guessing the anal passage is out of the equation?

Normally it's welly boots but as it's Spain, no chance. So let's flip it on its head, empty a few (of the biggest bottles you can find) of sunscreen, wash them good and proper, take them over empty, fill them with the rioja once you've purchased it.

We are talking wine here aren't we?

Me and a few of the lads have rented a mansion sized villa in castellon for 2 weeks, got benicsssim tickets but I'm not overly arsed to be honest. Running with the bulls is my priority, bit of a drive but worth it

They've confirmed today this is the final lineup. Final lineup for the 20th anniversary missing two headliners!
