Shit, sorry. Yeah I forgot I'd posted this then went for food. Where was I?
Yeah, OMG it was so fuycking cool. Been there about 2 hours and practically walked into AFX just ambling down the road. I resisted the urge to run up like a little fan boy and just casually carried on. Got fucking drunk. Wayched Ceri wrestle with his mate in a homo-erotic way. Felt leftout so joined in. Got stoned. Ate chocolate.. Saw Public Enemy walking past. Said hello. American with us casually qwanders up to Rob Brown and says hi. I didn't know who he wsas chatting too so wander over too. Porbably made a twat of myself. We rung Keyfumbler. He was too twatted to be coherent. Kept an eye out for Phiz. No see. WSaw aron funk in the flesh. Fuck he's tall. Nordic. Asked te merchandise lady why there was a snares T-Shirt wrapped up with his name on it. She said he was buying it. The nutter actually buys his own merchandise ?!?!?! Saw Hecker. Fucking awful. Not my taste. Saw Koolmaste Keith, shite compared to PE. Saw Sonic Sum. RUuuuuuuuuuuude! Paidrespect to te Bassist in person. Saw Aphex. FUCKING MAD AWESOME SET! PLAYED STUFF THAT SOUNDED DRUQKSY BUT WASN'T ON THE ALBUM, PLAYED STUFF THAT COULD'VE BEEN SMOJPHACE. He fucking rocked. Got drunker still. Smoked too many fags. Annoyed too many people. Watched too much TV. Drove home too fast (100MPH)

Just woke up and saw this. I'll do a proper post tommorow...
Giginger: I just woke up after a prolonged lucid dreaming session. I just dreampt you came in to the room I was sleeping in and woke me up, commenting on the music that was playing (the particular track really was playing in the real world on my MP3 playlist :) ). Obviously I spent too much time with you....
user who used to post as rephlexual: Was it you I saw when I got Hi Scores? You gave me a look of recognition and looked vaugely familiar (if your old avatar really is you). I only realised when I got home why.
I have a fun ATP themed/lightsaber crossover themed avatar planned whihc you can expect to see in the next few days.
Oh and giginger, I may as well admit now I didn't manage to get any snares footage... I was asleep as the whole schedule was pushed back a few hours due to "something" happening in the main building (if anyone knows what, please post).
Keyfumbler: Sorry I didn't get a chance to meet up, email me and I'll arrange to post the CDs I made for you to you.

Just a teaser "review" bit- Snares had a singer accompanying him in his set... a female opera type one if the American we stayed with is to be believed!
Amusing fact: We met a guy who makes those penis enlarging pumps you get adverts for on the net. I resisted the temptation to strangle him on principle once I realised he probably wasn't the person responsible for spamming me about them (although I foolishly fgave him my email addy in a drunken state :/)
Played some good chess in the games room, really good games. I only got beaten on the final night and for that the guy got a demo CD from me as did select individuals who were obviously partying hard and I took a shine to.

Sonic Sum were excellent, having only heard one of their tracks befor eI was very pleasently suprised. Although their DJs could of benefited from some basic lessons in dampening, but to be fair it wasn't entirely their fault as they had an awful metal legged table to put the decks on.
Zoviet France were very good- a nice relaxing warm up for the weekend. I've been menaning to check some of their stuff out for months now and this was a good introduction to them.
Bola cancelled which was a bit of a shame, I have it on good authority that he cancelled (at least) the day before. At the time I was annoyed as it was only announced at ATP 1 1/2 hours before, but in hindsight it was the organiser's fault not his (that we weren't notified earlier).
Aphex Played what was easily the best DJ set of the weekend, a lot of indian inspired dnb, bit of electro-ragga and also some stuff that sounded very drukqsy and a few other tracks that seemed to be his. He only looked up during the tracks that sounded like his, so perhaps he was trying to gauge the audience's reaction...
Earth were pants.

No, I didn't see the dunes on fire! Merch. was nice, but I forced myself not to buy any as I barely have enough money for petrol to get to work at the moment, let alone £15 tshirts. All I picked up was hi scores 12" for £3.50 which was too much of a bargain to resist :)
Any idea why there were police on site on Sunday? I just saw them driving out.
Also, what happened on Sunday night that delayed everything? ATP TV suddenly said "main building now open, events back on" and I wasn't aware it had closed!

Amusingly, he's anti-war, he just thinks now we're there and there is no chance we'll pull out, protest serves no purpose and can only be negative.

protest can be done in a harmless way.....its just a question of wantin people to hear your opinion...wich all humans should be aloud....
its like people sayin radiohead suck for callin their new album "hail to the thief".....
i think if people have the ability to get messages across then fair enough....anyway....

I slept through Gescom, curse my raging alcoholism putting me in a torpor for one of the best acts :/
I wish I'd gone to see them, they were meant to be really good.
It was nice to enjoy the quiet of the chalet lawns/the beach after some of the more loud music.

Sorry, I didn't explain that well-
A german user (Patrik I think?) was asking about the music tech course at Keele a few weeks back. I remembered that you went there and advised him to get in contact with you to find out what the uni was like, if it was a nice area to live etc.
