little al's festival tips

tip 1 - plan
just about the only instance where i will openly promote responsibility and deep thought. Check out the set times if you've not looked at a list of a festivals headliners, got all excited about seeing them and then missed one or two of them because of schedule clashes then chances are you've not been to a music festival.
or at least not a very good one.

tip 2 - diversify
dont be afraid to leave halfway through a popular dj's set just to find yourself 5 minutes later with a hotdog in your hand grooving away to some unbeknownst disc jockey in a close to empty tent. most artists are there for a reason dont let the size of a crowd decide who you've spent your money on.
furthermore dont be afraid to delve into the realms of different styles of music, the experience of listening to music at a festival is different to listening to a song in your car or on the bus.
give trance, dubstep or anything else a chance! if you don't like it then you can kick me in the crotch as hard as you like.

tip 3 - immerse
different festivals have different niches, different cultures if you will. don't be afraid to get down and dirty  the ladies may love your rippling biceps poking out of that trendy new singlet you just bought, and im sure that your sunglasses do add a little bit of a mysterious feel to your whole ensemble. but for me its not about what the ladies think, oh no its all about the festival so wear a superman costume, a teletubbies hat, or a morph suit, cover yourself in neon paint and have yourself a good time because damn it you deserve it.

tip 4 - the final tip
there is no tip four its getting rather late and my ability to type is rapidly declining, but i will leave you with some final words

dont not go, the festival experience is a must every time and every one you don't attend is an opportunity missed. so party animal go out there and have yourself a good time!
