I find an airbed makes it more bareable.
I know, but it knocks hell out of me for about five days later, just out of interest, is your dad a greedy pig that can't stop drinking from getting there on Wednesday till getting in the car on Monday morning?

I must confess I need a day off on the Tuesday to recover once I get back from it all.
My Dad is retired so he doesn't have this problem but he is a marathon runner so is in better shape than me. He is known to hang around the real ale tent by the acoustic stage a fair bit

So there is a bit of a difference, marathon runner V Alecart! Lol We tend to hang around that area quite a lot, especially if it's rained being high up, be there this year on Saturday, wanna see Stevie Winwood.

Not a festival/event as such, but following up my Scandinavia tour last year (Keane in Copenhagen and Orbital in Oslo 2 days later) with a trip to Geneva to see Peter Gabriel in October

Warrington Music Festival have announced their line for 19th-21st July, and it includes MADCHESTER heavyweights, 'The Happy Mondays' playing their only free show of the year!
[WAM] is covering the event (unofficially of course!), so can find all the latest information and original media content on our facebook event page! https://www.facebook.com/events/483539838389083
I'd certainly say check out the event if you haven't already, into it's 7th year!!

Wacken tomorrow, via Hamburg/St Pauli . Although you can find better lineups elsewhere, you can't beat Wacken as a festival as a whole. Well worth going to, if you're into the heavier end of the musical spectrum.
