just got back from 10 days of festival life..
Fusion festival for 2 days.. then 5 days of Roskilde Graf camp.. basically hanging out filming and interviewing all the graf writers working.. then a further 3 days of Roskilde Festival proper..i think i have had enough festivals for this year.
Roskilde is crazy tho.. 135,000 people.. the camping area party starts a week before hand and is bedlam .. one of the camping areas is affectionately called Mogadishu.. We arrived last saturday to graff camp and the camping was already full.. and it smelled like slum village. people piss constantly, everywhere.. all rubbish is pretty much just discarded. there are constantly birds circling over head.. mixed with cacophony of hundreds of PA's systems the kids build and bring with them .. some quite elaborate setups.. completely with multiple subs and a dj booth.. all in the camping area.. running for as long as anyone was sober enough to keep it on.
Watched some good music.. Pharrell, Die Antwoord, Run the Jewels were the best at Roskilde.. SiriusModeselektor was amazing at Fusion..
but yep, transferring directly from one festival to the other.. not sure im going to do that again.. just tooooo long in festival land..
graff camp was dope tho.
- i should add, fortunately Graff Camp is a restricted back stage area in the middle of the entire festival.. it was just us back there.. none of the gen popautoflavour
