    Was there the last two years, not going this year because i'll be in Chicago, go to red campsite and go to the furthest fields, its the quietest so therefore nackers don't go up there and you won't get * robbed or tents ruined compared to the rest of the campsite blue or red. You should go for the 4 days, it's the only way to do it. It's such a great experience, i can't describe it. my best bit of advice could be DON'T FORGET YOUR WELLIES AND DON'T OVERPACK

    did i say i was happy with glasvegas,lilly allen mystery jets ect??? im just posting more bands that are playing,i thought that was what this thread was for.


    main reason im going to benicassim is to experience another festival,plus the fact its better value(4 days compared to 3 days),it will be in the sunshine instead of the * rain,and it will double up as a summer holiday(beach and waterpark). extra bonus that two of my favorite bands are playing and also paul weller.


    i think my moaning is justified when you look at the price compared to previous years,tickets get more expensive but its mostly the same bands that play....total lack of imagination IMO. that doubled up with the fact that after 5 years of T im simply getting sick of it

    I wasn't having a go :50:

    I'll be at Benicassim next year hopefully, was just saying that although T is getting a bad rap for being boring there's very little scope for change because the bands that are doing the festival circuits are 90% the same across the board unless you go to a specialist festival like Download.

    Anyway I'll get to see The Killers again and, in all honesty, that's all I'm worried about :icon_mrgreen:
