Huh, so it's a real festival? Well, there you go ...

They've got Bloodbath and Gojira on as well? Nice.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

It is, and the best I've been to personally - it's just big enough to pull in some great names, but also just small enough to keep a really nice atmosphere, lots of people bring their kids and it's very friendly.

Although, to my knowledge, they have yet to book Taylor Swift

You pronounce it so it rhymes with Woodstock right?

Yes, I assume that was the name they were playing on. It started as a very small indoor thing back in 2001, and has been outdoor since 2006 I think.

Saw Taylor Swift last night with my wife, and Bryan Adams came out and they dueted Summer Of '69....it was AMAZING! The crowd went bananas.

I was utterly going to slam you for the Taylor Swift thing, but you made a huge save with the rest of the post.

Since the cottage we rented last weekend was rented for a whole week and the checkout is tomorrow, heading back there tonight for another evening of chilled out drinking and a beach day tomorrow

Hey I lost my virginity on this date in 1996! Is this strange that I remember things like this or does everyone else do to?

Not at all, i remember it fondly.

Glad you were a cuddler after the deed.....

I'd be more impressed if you remembered the exact minute it lasted for.

Geek update: The Perseid meteor shower is peaking tonight through the 13th! This is usually the best shower of the year so if you fuckers have clear skies unlike me then I highly and jealously reco that y’all take 30 mins or so and treat yourselves watching. No moonlight hindering visibility either!

Damn clouds!

We were supposed to go to the lake yesterday to watch this (we decided to stay an extra night at the beach, so my friend managed to find a last-minute motel room, and we fit 5 people in a 4-person room).

Unfortunately (for the stars), as we were about to set out, we stopped to make friends with some kids (teens to mid-20s) who were having a bonfire in the back. We went to give them our complimentary bucket of firewood, they insisted we should do a shot, and things got kinda derailed from there.

It was a pretty fun alcohol-filled night, but we definitely missed the starfall.

Ah, tempting to pop along as Space Centre will be there, but don't think I can justify the funds.

Still, May's one gives me time aplenty to sort out my costume!
