Reading/Leeds checklist

[Mega Ross]

Don't know why some of you are sacrificing booze carrying space to bring extra clothes, you really don't need spare trousers/ shirts/ underwear. To me that is the equivalent of girls bringing portable straighteners and shit, so pointless making an effort when everyone else looks and smells terrible.

And 24 cans is not enough for 5 days drinking unless you are planning on buying the majority of beer in the arena or not really getting drunk, or doing a lot of drugs alongside your drinking.

Have you ever had a sweat rash from chafing down below? Its hot and sweaty and can happen to the best of us. Not worth it. Take extra clothes. It's not about smell its about health, hygeine and the ability to enjoy the festival without in-necessary pain.

Well when I go to the festival ill spend the whole day in the arena. 12 hours. In which time you can't drink your own alcohol. In this time I will consume approximately 10 cold pints per day. Like I said though with spirits and 24 cans for wed and Thurs, then if you run out buy more beer there and its often cold. You will probably need a few more cans but I don't see the point in lugging cans across a field which won't get drunk and will be warm by the time of drinking.

About 50 a day Friday to Sunday is more than enough to get me pissed and fed. No more than you would spend on a bank holiday weekend out on the town.

Once the bands start if you like to spend the whole day on the arena you only realistically have from when you get up between 8-11 until the first band 12:30ish. Add this to after hours, if you have drunk all day you won't need much. I work on 5 cans a day Friday to Sunday and 15 a day wed & Thursday. Only going from Thursday this year so 24 may be enough. If not get more. Simple.

I don't see the point in trekking to tescos more than once over the course of the weekend, long as you've got a sack truck carting crates are no bother but tescos is a mission of a walk in itself.
