Yeah - Union Jack ones.

Well as my better half is out with the girls tonight and it's such a nice day out there I may finally venture along for a bit (have to work tomorrow) and put a few faces to names, I'll be the lost looking one trying to figure out which group is forumites...
I had a good night, glad I finally decided to come along and meet a few of the people behind the keyboards, I'm sure I'll be along for more drinks in the future (and I owe Piers a pint after I ashamedly was unable to down the one he brought me before closing time.....although judging by my slightly off colour start to work today that may have been a good thing).

I was indeed, although I did discover unknown to me that there was a previous EDKiwi (with a different spelling?) who a few people had assumed I was.

I think we may have said hello in passing, I was going to come over and introduce myself properly but the next think I knew it was closing time and only a few of us were left.

    • If you see him again,  please tell him that it's not working!
    • I spoke to a sound engineer at Piermont and he mentioned the software they use which tries to absorb the sound into the landscape
    • I think we're probably closest - about 50m from one of the tents - and to be honest it's not that bad. The bass is making the windows vibrate but it's not 'noisy' I've always said the loud music is the least of the issues to me. It's the construction for two weeks before / one week after, the imposing steel wall, the trodden in non-decomposing litter (fag butts, cable ties, vapes, bottle tops, ring pulls) which will cover the entire site forever, the compaction & damage to the grass which takes months to recover, the impact on birds, bats & wildlife of 24/7 lights, the anti social behaviour of so many attendees (p***ing on the streets and in the bushes) and this year the blatant extending of the site footprint, despite previously giving the reason they can't move it is because it's been designed for that location. And hopefully everyone can see this for what it really is - an attempt to win over the local community and set a precedent for four festival days, so that they have a stronger argument when they put in an application for six days again next year.  Southwark state that the money from Gala goes directly to supporting their Events dept, who support "up to 100 free events every year". So what are these free events, and why do we need another?
