also who saw my angry house?

That was a very special moment indeed. You can see moi in that pic wearing the gray jumper on the right. Looked like all the DSF peeps were drawn together

I don't know about anyone else but that was easily the best festival I've been too. Nothing to complain about except for the fact that it should still be going on now

There wasn't much dubstep but I didn't mind at all, gave me a chance to listen to different things.

Luke Vibert and Flying Lotus fucking rinsed it. Every time I see Vibert his sets vary massively and always seen to get better. Never seen Flying Lotus before but I'll definately be watching him again. What was that track he played after 9 samurai? Sounded like it could be a dubstep track of his own

Unquestionably the best festival experience I've had- loved the variation on offer as well. Really enjoyed Tom Middleton on Saturday evening, Beth Orton, The Mountain Agnostic Gospel Choir

where incredible and Flying Lotus played the best set that I've ever heard.

Couple that with the brilliant stuff on at sunrise and pretty slack security ("is that alchol sir?" "No, it's water" "Go on then, in you go") made it fuckin incredible. Only downside- got sold a coulple of dodgy little ones but you gotta expect that I suppose- when do tickets come out for next year?

On the gate where I had to hang for most of it I was talking to the security and the guy showed me about 6 big liners full of confiscated alcohol, after my amazed reaction he said 'that's nothing mate, have a look at this' and under the bridge was literally about 150-200 bottles of various things, bourbon, wine, rum etc. Shame they were on 24 hours else I wouldve lifted some of that!

At certain times during the day they werent searching bags so a couple of my mates were bringing litres of booze in every day.

The secruity were really good though. No intimidation whatsoever.

I think the SIA security had after partys with most of it, the rest shared about between stewards.

Out to LEET, DARK, DFS, INKIE, LEFT, WHOM

yeah the security were slack as fuck. as we were walking in in the morning for some reason they asked us to step to one side so they could frisk us so they did and found an 1/8th in my mates pocket. so he took it out and held it in his hand whilst he searched the rest of him and was just like "mate if this is all you got you can have it back, enjoy yourself" so that was pretty fuckin cool!
