i've been every year and i really don't agree with what you're saying, the liquid stage and the psy trance stage play psy trance, and OCCASIONALLY the chillout tent. the breaks tent was shit last year (the worst year so far), but they are definitely improving things in a lot of ways this year, there's no way that many of last year's problems will be present this time around.iag wrote:re. the Glade
I used to live locally and got some free tickets last year. My highlight was Jamie lidell on friday night and that was about it.
If you don't like psy trance or breaks then i'd avoid it. There were about 3 or 4 tent's playing psy trance which was 3 or 4 too many for my liking and the claims to be on the forefront of electronic music seemed a little far fetched to me.
I got the impression that any music that wasn't in the free party/hippy friendly mold was unwelcome. So i wouldn't be surprised if there isn't much in the way of dubstep this year, but perhaps they'll prove me wrong.
If you like veggie burgers, thai fishermans trousers and psy trance then the glade is for you.
as to the claim that theres nothing but psy + breaks there, if you went last year - did you even go to the overkill tent?!!? that place was insane.
i hardly listened to any breaks or psytrance all weekend, serious. the techno there is incredible, and till this yer they didnt even have a dedicated techno stage - promised this year with HUGE names.
i fully recommend this festival, its awesome, looking forward to actually being the legal age for the first time this year
