I've worked fifteen seasons now...well, this is my fifteenth coming up...happily, the company I work for puts me up in a house or hotel for the most part so happy days 
You don't have to take a tent to most festivals these days...there's usually a fancy camping option, yurts or tipis or some such thing....its normally expensive thoug  |

"I love live music but crowds, communal loos and mud would ruin the music."
thats my reasoning for not wishing to attend such an event
plus i like my sleep to much and i think theres more than likely all night parties (which create that festival atmosphere no doubt) going on.

Most festivals have some kind of posh loo and shower service these days...you pay so much for a weekend pass to them...its a big moneymaker for promoters that is so the services are manned, regularly cleaned etc...its not so bad and you get crowds with live music I guess wherever you go.... |

The first time I went to Kendal Calling we were camped not too far from a portaloo that didn't get emptied...we had an enjoyable time betting on whether those who opened the door had a strong enough stomach to use it
The ones in the arena weren't too bad, but the ones on the campsite were mostly minging...thank god for Pootopia loos, even if they were a coupla quid a go  |

It was actually not bad weather, I think maybe 2010...the loo in question was a solitary one near the entrance and I'm pretty sure it didn't get emptied anything like twice a day, think it maybe got forgotten |

Hmmm....they normally stick them in banks rather than solitary loos....makes the cleaning rounds more efficient... Ah well, its an ear to the ground productions thing is Kendal.. they have odd ideas like that...
And I'll leave it there before I turn this into a toilet thread |
