For those of us going to this years Rock & Blues, it's important to know the basics...
Have fun, get drunk and enjoy the weekend and all it has to offer.
You may or may not have have heard of STOAS, this is a little fun thing
which has turned into a competition within the Rock & Blue Forum
members. STOAS, stand s Stupid Thing On A Stick. The whole idea being
that you find a stick and attach the stupidest thing you can think of
to it can carry it around with you during the day.
If you're going to get a tattoo whilst you're there, remember to
get it fairly early on, before you start drinking. If you decide on the
Saturday morning that you're gonna get a new tat after a Friday night
sinking as much beer as you possibly can, when you go to get the
tattoo, you will bleed like hell and prolly lose the color in the
tattoo, when it scabs over.
One other piece of advice, if you can try and get yourself a big
flag and put it on a long flag pole next to your tent or the group of
tents where you and your mates are camped. As there are expected to be
an the region of 45,000 people at the Rock & Blues this year,
finding your tent in the dark when you're drunk isn't gonna be easy.
Putting a flag up that you will easily recognize will help you and your
mates a great deal.
Hope this helps
