*******Hellfire 2007********
Okay, well some of you may have heard that the next falmouth/gwithian meet will probably be the last.
"OH GOOD GOD NO!!!!!" I hear you cry, well never fear young hoppers, we have something bigger and better planned for next year.... Hellfire!!!
Moving along the same theme as PLAY, but in lovely sunny(*we hope*) Cornwall.
We want to know what you want at the festival.
Call it market research if you will!
We have lots of ideas ourselves so far, but if there's something you've seen somewhere else at a festival and would like it at Hellfire
...say so here!
Likewise if there is something that has caused you a bad experience at another festival, circus skills or otherwise,and it would put you off doing it agian...LET US KNOW!!!
One other issue is cost. Obviously we want to charge you lovely yummy people as little as possible for this beautiful summer experience, so bear in mind all things cost money!
I'm also interested as to wether people would be prepared to pay more on entry, for more facilities????
Okay, we have a few things that we will have there anyway:
Big top-yay!
Catering facilities
On site Toilet and Shower Blocks
Live Music/DJ's
Fire area
Workshop areas
Chill out tent
Camping
Parking
Performances
Beer Tent
Family area
....and basically all the usual sort of stuff.
Theres lots of other ideas we have, but we're waiting to see how realistically viable they are first.
So people....thoughts/ideas please!
Go on....you know you want to!

Something really cool is a hammock chill-out space. Loungey music, one central pole and all hammocks radiating out like spokes on a wheel.
absolute bliss

Sure....i look crap blonde anyway!
So Neon do you have anything useful to add to this thread or are you just here to explore your comic book geekery a little more!?
For the meat lovers we will probably be having a Hog Roast as part of the Carnivorous Catering.
Nope, nothing useful. I'm crap at organising things so I'll just leave it to you...
All I'll say is - more workshops - clean toilets - All night loud-ish play area - all night chill area - DVDs!
Good on you! I didn't even know there was an Emma Frist!
Re: Hog roast - will catching the hog be one of the activities? (Lord of the Flies-style?)

Dude less of the p*ss taking over my typo's!
Or there'll be trouble!
As for your suggestions, yes, yes, yes and maybe.
And no, unfortunately catching the hog will not be one of the activities!

definately well thought out transportation methods and online directions for travellers who would like to come along. i think having things like face paint, henna, glitter etc for ppl to play with, oh and definately a massage area where you can pay for a proper massage mmmmmm massage, no festival experience is complete without it *eyes glaze over*
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

Won't that be really really really smelly and the enviromental impact wouldn't be very good.

Fearpig, there will be showers on site anyway so no need for Solar showers.
Benjamen- thanks !
Doubt we'll use the couch idea, but we will be having some sort of chill out tent, more than likely with bean bags etc inside.We will also hopefully be "keeping it cornish" with a lot of things, so you may well get cream teas!
Although the rabbits only get dressed up for me, don't know if they'll make the festy! sunset seadragon

i think your underestimating the draw of the couch, like seriously, i thought it was kinda crazy having couchs in the middle of the bush when i heard about it but hot damn nothing quite like a couch and having beautiful women coming round bringing free alchol mmmmmmmm good times shame they didnt get the air con working *shrugs* the free massage did make up for it though mmmm massage
i think its the finer details that make the difference, if this and play are on within a few weeks of each other i think it would be very hard not to come over for it, i mean really spinning festivals woot

Strugz has posted one of the strongest arguments for attending a festival yet
Will there be a beach? Having the fire spinning and fire all night on a beach would be good

Meaning what exactly??? Benjamen- i can completely see where you're coming from, and i do love the idea, I'm just not sure if we would have the resources to do it this time. Transportation costs etc.
But believe me, there will be some quality "chilling" areas.
Among other attentions to detail.
And dude, you so know I'm not gonna let you get out of coming over for this don't you!!!??
Steaks- no beach on site I'm afraid, one big part of finding a site was finding somewhere away from the general public enough so that we could make noise etc. throughthe night and not disturb anyone, and unfortunately this means keeping away from very public areas like beaches.

Thats understandable Maus. Unfortunate, but understandable.
Good luck with everything. And my services are available for sound engineering/P.A. rigging if needed.

What do I like to see at festivals?
1. Decent toilets and showers
2. Reasonably priced food, i.e. somewhat less than a fiver for a handful of chips.
It may stop, but it never ends.
