Back from Leipzig Wave-Gotik-Treffen
May. 22nd, 2002 01:28 amWell, physically, at least. That was quite immensely fun, and I plan to do it all again next year (and to drag some of the wonderful people who are reading this along, if possible. Anyone interested? :)
Proper write up to follow, but here's the short version:
10,000+ goths, 4 days of festival, 5 venues visited (out of 9, I think) 21 bands seen, 6 CDs purchased, 4 assorted band/event T-shirts purchased, 36 brands of absinthe sampled, much beer consumed, far too much money spent on clothes, far less sleep than I should've had.
Oh, and 334 new items in my LJ friends list. Which I've just skimmed. My brain no longer works. I'm off to bed now.
Might wake up again in time to go to the Windmill tomorrow, if there's anyone left in town planning to do so...?

Are you coming to the Rome Burns gig on Friday?
no subject
I seem to recall someone mentioning that there'd be some new RB tunes played, too. *perk*
See you there?
And the answer to that is...
It's going to be the first weekend in June, iirc (I have the exact date on this year's hand-out, which I've misplaced). The hotel's about the same rate as Whitby (camping is, of course, cheaper. But much less civilised), the event itself costs about £40 for a ticket, flights are under £100 if you book well in advance. And it's brilliant.
So what's stopping you? :-)
