The metal box thing was from Amazon. I genuinely can't remember what I searched for, probably camping oven if anything. You can get the same result by wrapping tin foil round a disposable BBQ, having the foil extend up to make the box.

This is it, no one's being forced to go each year. Buying a early bird or super early bird means you accept the risk that the lineup might be wank. I had zero intention of going unless MCR was headlining. Turns out I love the lineup and can't wait to see a couple acts first UK appearance.

@brickinmouthsyndrome I got my ticket on the way home from last year even if the line up sucks the festival is great If I see at least 10 bands I'm happy with that pays for the ticket in my eyes and I have 16 on the first announcement I'm a happy lad

So, per band, that's about 18.75. That's a bargain. You cannot get tickets that cheap these days. Not surprised you're happy.

@brickinmouthsyndrome exactly can't complain at that can ya hahaha 9 times out of ten there is at least 10 bands I want to see or I'm interested in seeing like this year for example never seen scratch or listened to them but I have heard only good things so that's 1 of my 10 already and I'm not necessarily a fan

Yeah, fair shout on that. More people defended this until it's almost been forgotten about sadly.

Hahaha, that would have been brilliant. Cos I've never said her name on video as well. You'd have had a very real dear in headlights situation on ya hands.

@@brickinmouthsyndrome I recognised her from featuring in a few of your vlogs (Bludfest, Download) 😃

Complete lack of time to do anything. Been stuffed with overtime at work. Not been fun.

@brickinmouthsyndrome glad it's nothing more than that 👍

Yeh we miss you Rob! Work SUX big time 😄

Oh wow, that's a bit scary. Suppose I'll get ready for people claiming I'm attacking Dom again.... Urgh.

Probably why there is no official statement from BludFest HQ. And why theyve redirected the website to BRAT Clothing. Seems like it's being buried quite sharpish. The cult of personality has fully taken over.

That's an understatement.

@@brickinmouthsyndrome thanks for the video, found it hard to actually get an honest opinion on the fest. I work with a small indie fest no more than 400ppl, we would not get away with doing stuff like this. I get his idea and its a shift in the right direction, butttt its the 'idea' of a indie festival with lame'o corp management still

I'm getting some interesting reactions from people for being honest about this. You've nailed that. Anyone else would be dragged through hell for delivering an event like this. The core idea is great, very admirable and I wanted it to be good, unfortunately the delivery left a lot on th table and was severely lacking. Now, a 400 person event sounds really cool and intimate. Consider my interest piqued.

@@brickinmouthsyndrome I think its such a powerful thing human beings congregating to dance and let loose to music, it makes me feel a little giddy inside when festivals and tribal gatherings are so corporate and white washed. Everyone should bring a little something something to the table, equal contributions of each individuals speciality. For the people by the people. Personally I don't really like big crowds, anything over 3000 and I get disorientated. I like connection and to feel at home with everyone on a site and respected by the organisers fully. I can appreciate mass gatherings and the need to cater to something that volume, but personally I just don't vibe with it. The events industry is in a strange place right now, I think more independents need to clobber together and organise more gatherings with their crews and their crews crews .. Have you ever thought about a fest .. these things don't have to be mass scale and la-de-da .. gatherings of humans, music, talent, creativity, acceptance, freedom.... Rambling

Let's say.... it wasn't a good first run at a festival. I'm glad other people managed to have a fun day and some didn't have these issues, but there's a lot who had it way worse than me.

Holy crap. Is your daughter OK?

​@@brickinmouthsyndromeshe is now yes but was very scary when it happened whilst penned in at entrance we were stuck at and the security reaction was frankly disgusting, the paramedics told me that they weren't allowed to hand out water, they wanted to take her straight to medic tent but she had to sit on chair on verge of passing out whilst security demanded to check our bags, ironically the medic tent 50 yards from our entrance and queue had crates of water sitting in ice and seemed to be reserved only for those that passed out rather than handing out and actually preventing it. They were also very under staffed, our entrance had about 8 or 9 security gates with only 3 gates open.

Wow that's so messed up. Do you mind if I put these posts in my video about the issues on the day?

​@@brickinmouthsyndrome No not at all, go for it mate, I was vocal on the bludfest posts i noticed a lot of the people reporting on it their comments would disappear, a lot of YBs super fans are seemingly very enamoured and seem to think queuing 4/5 hours is perfectly normal some were even blaming me for not being prepared for it but we all seen how shit it was. But yeah go for it dude :)

If you'd rather do it in your own words, please feel free. You can send a video or a link to a video over to my email brickinmouthsyndrome@gmail.com.

It's honestly totally fine. I know how I come across on here in text form. It doesn't give the inflection and tone of what I say, and how I say it. And an artist like Yungblud people are very protective and defensive of. I expected people to assume I'm after the worst. I'm always happy with people to come say hi, at Download each year I have people asking for selfies and it's not an issue. Everyone on here interacting with me, watching my garbage are the ones giving me my platform. Do what ever I can for everyone on here. Its why I am critical of everything. I don't want it to fail, I want it to get better. I want more grassroots festivals, I want more affordable music events, I want life post rona to be amazing for everyone. Thank you for giving me a chance, I do appreciate it.

I am trying to take a measured approach to this. He may be the name, face and head of all of this going on, he may also have had final say.... But I refuse to believe the actions and inaction of so many others can be squarely blamed on Dom. He has to speak up, he has to do better if he ever does this event again. But I refuse to blame him entirely and directly. That's a committee that organised this, this lays on them.

Because on the outside looking in, it's a stupid idea. How it was described made it a childish laughing stock that was rife for abuse. However, how it was used was very good and effective. People turned the garden area into a really nice chill hangout spot. And it wasn't about making friends with lonely children.

This is why I think the fans will ruin it. Having concerns that the day might not go off without a hitch SOMEHOW means I am "hating so much". No, there's some questionable choices that have been made. And I'm allowed to voice my concerns. I hope the day is good and I'm wrong.

His fans are awful. I just love his music and stay out of the rest.

Wow, I'm gonna have to go through that faq with a fine tooth comb today then.

@brickinmouthsyndrome yeah just have a good look

Camping chairs are not allowed. Flags are not allowed. Monopod stools are allowed, at the back of the arena. Please read all the info that's available. More came out in an email this evening.

And the chairs are ONLY allowed in if you have a medical condition.

It's so different from any other one day event. I just don't get it. Can't wait to get grief for just showing people what actually is going to go on and not sugar coating it.

Hopeful, but so concerned how this turns out. Very concerned as well that the core, target audience will ruin this.

Nice channel you have there.

They really turned a bunch of wet, tired, miserable people back onto party mode.

They really did bring something special. For that set, all the pain went away.

Don't remember asking.

You think of that yourself?

I've noticed this the past few years. There's always someone with a bike. I THINK, not 100% on this so I don't know for sure, they might be staff. A special variety that's allowed a bike. Ill be sure to ask them next time.

They did, this was the second one they did over the weekend. I was..... Preoccupied at camp the day before.

I had to cut SOOOO much of it out to get this under 45 mins. I might do a full uncut release of the chilli eating once I'm through this year's DL footage. James B was an absolute trooper,

It's all good, just do what everyone else does and screw over the traffic flow.

Came and said hello in the Dogtooth om the Saturday, you were right about that all girl band, they were worth watching. BTW if you missed Pantera as planned they were sh1t hot...!

AltBlkEra were great. Glad someone could enjoy Pantera. Think I clocked a bit of it distantly, was alright. Just can't stand Phil personally.
