Just with last year's similar thread, none mine, nor anything to do with me.

Small spider tent, basically house music all weekend. Dynacord cobra.. not very bassy...



Liquid Tent... lots of Drum n bass and dubstep type stuff in here...



12 x F218s, 6 x Res 4s, 2 x infrabass. res 2s as monitors...



mental. great job...

the racks...



most of these pics were taken on saturday morning, which is why it all looks empty.

chill out spider tent...



with some L-acoustics stuff...



the lake stage... bit odd this one... martin reflex / line array stuff during the daytime, and 3 stacks of Rootical reggae system at night..





(best pic i got of the Rootical system)


exactly the same setup as was used for the psy-trance area last year...



which was scaled down slightly this year.. slightly smaller stage, and smaller system...





the big top, techno by Surge promotions



jeff mills, sandwell district, vitalic and such in here...

nice L-acoustics setup here



big improvement on the sound of the martin system they had in here last year i thought...

16 subs in here in total...



and that's about it really.

weather was a bit up and down, didn't really commit to being totally shit though so that was ok, i was offsite for saturday so didn't ever really settle into it.

good weekend though.

nice pics, good job! Where was this festival? How much were tickets? Wish I'd known about it - sounds just up my street!

best festival iv been to in years.

the tent with cobra was had some really awsome house music the last two nights,
shame about the lack of low end tho.

the big top was crazy, the vdos stuff is amazing.

all the f1 was prety crazy but didnt get the chance to hear much of it as the
music wouldnt be my cup of tea.

god that psy stage was a pain in the H*** never bloody stopped. what an awful music.

all in all life is a very good little festival.

.



never did like those subs, the PWH horns are much better with the cobra system. Know if the tops are the cobra4 or cobra2?

also considering their extremely wide dispersion, the toeing in seems a little bizarre to me!

and why do self respecting engineers allow arty folk cover the topend of the system with decor!? they always want to do it, does my head in!!
