Doof pics - Summer 2009/10

I've finally processed the roll of film containing all these..
Photos from Strawberry Fields, Ooh yeah, Mix in the Stix and Maitreya (after it had become Mudtreya, but before it became totally-flooded-treya).

So, the weekend was good, albeit tiring.
I think I already wrote about Synthetic Culture.. Expensive crap drinks, cheesy music, but good company.
It seems like an awful lot of money to spend, just to drink over carbonated Stella and sit on astroturf with cigerette burns.
Ho hum.

Saturday night was much nicer; We treked out to Walthamstow Marshes, past an "Advanced Water treatment" plant, and finally at the end of the road, came to a park, in the middle of which was the OCB party in full swing.
Quite a large crowd, who were friendly enough, but noticeably different from the sort who frequent the more trancey outdoor doofs. Ran into Kira and co there, who I haven't seen in a very long time. Music was meant to be varied, but ended up seeming like non-stop house and tech-house, which isn't my favourite. Oh well.
Was nice to sit around with friends in a nice location; and thanks to James and Alex for bringing along some nice Pinot Noir :)

Didn't get up to too much on Sunday.. slept away a lot of the day, then finally dropped into the Alwyne that evening with Kate and Michelle for a couple of Frambozenbiers and some food.

I think I'm going to try and have a quiet weekend next week.. although Venetian Snares are playing on friday..
