what happened to the Dance scene "I'm into Dance music mate" you know a bit of reggae, house, rap, drum and bass, garage, whatever, electronics, raving, some used to call it 'black' music Don't get me started on the MOBO's - how the hell is that good, music of black origin, what about the MOWO's, would that be allowed, or "i'm not black or white, I'm BROWN, from the boogie down, productions of course, i'm musically thumpin, others think they're that but they're nothing" i'm not saying there aint tons of brilliant music but every festival just seems to be foxshit at representing any kind of quality cohesive funky movement, e.g. as opposed to indie/rock kids, and so many of the people that play are mates of the agent or promoter, hardly anyone actually good, even if they are they are lumped in with a load of turd, there is hardly any feeling or soul to it, you go to it to hang out and have fun fair enough, but there are nly ever 1 or 2 people who move you, especially trying to dance in a muddy tent where there is no elbow room or two much, the big chill, classic example of basically a failed writer, ie journalist, rinsing money from various grants agencies, putting on a fest and only asking people he can con to do it dirt cheap coz he claims its for charity criminal justice bill, laws, whatever totally destroyed the ethos of Sunrise, Energy, Raindance, or Soul Weekenders before them. Big brother, The man, really does have us under control and we flock to these things and get fooled they are great coz its all were allowed to do these days but do i really mean this? irrelevant, it's a point of view I like beats, I like bass, I like dancing and dreaming and fun, somebody help me out glade can suck my shrivelled dried up empty excuse for a scrotum, people might as well bring their own instruments and have a massive jam session it would be tons better. you read it here first |

meaning no disrespect to anyone in the lineup mentioned above of course, in fact some of them are among the brightest talents of their generation, it's just that generation by the looks of it seems aged 35-50 save the children! |

have you ever been to glade? |

He's mostly right, you know |

thats why wonderments exist |

to a certain extent i agree however glade festival has still managed to maintain its "underground" feel without the need for any kind of commercial input or sponsorship. Until the day Tiesto plays i will continue going |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
people will keep going but they agree with me to a certain extent, i.e. my point proved? i have been to glade, i had a good time, but would have been better if it had been a 2 hour concert by one act and the rest of the time camping/dossing/ghettoblasters you need an ethos and taste in music to put on a good musical event. nobody who puts on events are very interested or wise to music of any kind, only the mechanics of gigs. agents included. journalists included. 99% of the time anyway |

Glade is glade, the punters know they will be in for a great time, as i do every year i go. Its about the experience not the lineup, glade know how to put on a great weekend, Personally i feel from a line up point of view this year is one of the weakest compared to previous years, but if you are attending to have fun and get smashed for 3 days straight, who cares really about the line up. Its the fun part that counts. |

going again this year, been every year so far....is that 6 or 7 now? i can't remember. new venue this year though, so i guess i'll feel like a glade newb all over again. as for the line up....the last 3 years i've stopped even looking at the line up and trying to see certain ppl, i just like to wander now and see what i come across. makes for a much more relaxed festival and means i find new acts i didn't know of before that turn out to be really awesome. unless say, aphex was playing again....i'd make time for that! but alas, he's not. i'll probably make time for underworld though. |

The first glade I went to in 2006 was brilliant, really dark and dirty techno and d&b, nice electronic, interesting ambient music in the dome thingy and a good atmosphere all round. the year after was a mud shit, then the year after was the worst ever, why? because the music got worse, too much dubstep and it wasn't even like it was good dubstep . the only act i really enjoyed in 07 was daddy freddy i couldn't even hear autechre because they turned the sound right down. I found that the noise issue ruined the festival, why bother going back to the same location where the residents complain? why not find somewhere more isolated and have no sound restrictions? I'm afraid I won't go to another Glade, unless they change location, or unless I get trading again, i was thinking to sell hot chocolate, what do you think? hot chocolate with marshmallows , squirty cream, or a flake. also white hot chocolate.. good idea? could sell some little cakes too, like choc walnut brownies mmm fuck waffles |

i had a jolly good time too. as usual i mostly have no idea who i saw, i just went where my ears and dancing feet took me. i've been every year so far but i think next year may be the first one i miss. i just can't hack 3 days of drug abuse anymore, i'm getting old (32) 8(. i completely skipped the sunday this year....spent it sleeping for like 17 hours or so....i was designated driver. on the plus side i was so completely straight on the monday morning that i managed to fold away my pop-up tent first time! last year it took me an hour or more and eventually i admitted defeat and someone else kindly did it for me. i thought the new venue was good.....i suspect the old venue wouldn't have handled the rain as well as the new place did. the only downside was that id spiral is no longer set away from the other stages which kinda ruined it's ambience when they were playing the softly softly type stuff......incidentally, did you guys hear them playing june 9th at id spiral? i was kinda worried for a few minutes as i thought it might be a secret boc gig, but it was just a dj playing a boc track. |
