I have to get this off my chest as the "Post-festival blues" are kicking in HARD! This festival was Amazing and by far the best organised I've ever seen. I've personally attended nearly 60 festivals and it's been forever since I felt so sad to leave one! Everything was absolutely excellent, from the Staff, Punters, Camp site, Food & Drink, Vendors, Security, Volunteers and Facilities - I've never seen a group of people get everything spot on and listen to their fans. Truly blown away and I can see why people buy their tickets blindly the year before!
Me & Bartek started our journey to the Netherlands, straight from a very messy ACDC gig in London. Which wasn't the best start 😂 Aston picked us up and we had 5 hours to get back to Dover & get the ferry to Pitfest Festival! Huge thanks to John Vugteveen for hooking us up with tickets and making sure we felt welcomed the entire weekend, and a big shoutout to Maik Reuvers , the Broski behind this incredible event. We managed to speak to literally everyone at some point I'm sure!
Our squad for this one was Ruby, Aston rocking his replacement iconic blue squid hat, Jade , and Bartek, who kept us on our toes by constantly going missing and getting lost at one point walking to Germany for cigarettes! 🤣
The band lineup was pretty cool and advertised a lot of Dutch bands that I hadn't heard of before, I was given tons of recommendations from fans and staff which created some of the best memories I've had at a festival. Going in blind to see people losing their shit to bands that are 30 years in has given me some musical homework! 🤣
But alongside that surprising aspect, there was still incredible performances from Hatebreed, Napalm Death and my personal highlights were also Neuk! - absolutely mental crowd!, Sabbat, Skroetbalg (Which I still cant say), and Salatious Gods - which definitely woke us up from the morning hangover! But the late replacement for Sick of it All - Napalm Death (a swap which actually suited me) set featured the most continuously active pit I've ever seen-absolutely intense! And featured staff at points & I loved every second!
The festival's staff were excellent and very friendly, making the experience even better.
The facilities were top-notch, the best toilets I've encountered at any festival. Plus, the attendees were incredibly polite, helpful and friendly, always up for a chat. After a few beers we were all mates and there was absolutely no language barrier - despite my inability to speak any other language! I need to thank the camping lot for welcoming us, from showing us their campervans to offering us cooked breakfasts - it's truly next Level!
We even squeezed in watching 3 football games on the big screen! Featuring games from Dull England, and Holland - The moment Memphis got subbed got the biggest cheer which killed me and Aston!
And, of course, we tried all the food, drinks and cocktails, which actually leaves me missing having a blue tongue 😂 - if you know, you know!
From our group road trip shenanigans to the old school mosh pits & stage dives, we captured it all!!
Our videos will give both an inside look & keep the POV of a punter for this festival's best moments. Showing a real experience of the adventure we had, highlight a few of the unsung heroes at Pitfest and show you how a festival should be run when people actually care!
I will be creating them straight after I'm done with the Graspop stuff!
Thanks for sticking around!
We will definitely be back!

Thanks for the support, honored you liked our set! Pitfest was a blast and for us a step up, opening a few doors to other bigger stages in the near future 🎉. If you have more footage of our set can you please share with us?
Ahhhh Thanks guys!!! 🖤
You smashed it! The Crowd were buzzing as you saw! Great energy and all smiling. So many people around the campsite were talking about your set beforehand and recommending it, so the packed out tent was awesome to see.
I have a bit of footage from this set, but it's pretty much what you see here, just without the audio fades in & out between clip & song changes. You are more than welcome to use for yourselves for free for whatever you wish though! Thanks for letting me up there!
🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻

Thank you for sharing your time at pitfest. This festival looks so good. my husband said the smaller festivals abroad are so much better and such lovely people x
Your husband has absolutely nailed what it's like! Give them a go!
🤘🏻😎🍻
Allright! Help me convince my wife!
Sick festival! Thanks!😎🍻🤘
It was excellent!!!
🤘🏻
Love that you guys are so hardcore I miss that so much we used to wait for the band to come out. I’m literally addicted to your videos. 🤘🏼
Thank you so much for watching!!!
🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻
Thanks for the video Billy, hope you all had a great time. 🖤🤘
It was fantastic mate!!!
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Again first !
Have a shitload of fun on bloodstock !!!
Hahaha!!!
I didn't think you'd actually do it 😂
We've just got home... Shattered!!!
Nice one Billy
Just spoke about independent content creators (specifically talking about you) on my patreon podcast, and the organic, non pretentious vlogs you do
Another great little series on a fest 👊
Thank you so fucking much for giving our channel that highlight mate, I appreciate your support and encouragement a lot!
🖤🤘🏻
Does Bartek's heart rate ever elevate for anyting? Hanging off the back of a golf buggy at 50mph and he looks more concerned about spilling his beer than anything :D
🤘🏻😂🍻
Exactly this!!! Hahahaha
I've never seen him panic over anything!!!
And we've been in some really mental situations 😂
fuck yeah, nice end of sunday 🤘
Gutted it's over!!!
😭
@@billymayhem make afterparty ^^
Small festivals are much better in my opinion as things seem more civil & organised as opposed to weight of people everywhere 🧐👍🤘
I think they are able to give that personal experience ya know? It's just less stressful all around 🤘🏻
Hatebreed definitely did better here than bloodstock I reckon. Made me chuckle when he came out with the wheres bartek shirt on 😂. Who got the envelope thru the door then with the fine?
I loved both sets, but it's hard the crowd were totally different! This felt so personal and it was such a surprise hit. All of the vibes were just good all day, where as with Bloodstock it's the Mass crowd that can go either way. They smashed both sets and we loved it!! Haha
Still haven't had the fine come through, so we're really nervous about it 😂 & yeah when that shirt was on we all laughed so much!
Have you recovered from Bloodstock yet bro?? 🤣
@@billymayhem yeah just about.. Was rough yesterday but taking it easy. Did you see raised by owls Sunday? Was epic!
@Phil.Oakley
It was just too early!!! 😭 We were still shitfaced lol
@@billymayhem yeah was a struggle as we didn't even leave camp til late afternoon each day but we went to see them then went back to camp
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Ever since I went to Grasspop in 2015. Stop going to Download and being treated like a farm animal with a cash point card. Andy Copping does not give two shits about metal music or metal fans.
It has definitely felt like that for a while hasn't it!! 😭
