Phat09 the place for a massive new years.

The mud pools were sweet i loved squishing that shit between my toes! You`d have to be a real ass to drop your cans in there though ay, cheers guys. the mud lake you had to cross to get to the campsites was rats, thats where they needed bark. I second everything else notimpressed said. If someone found my brown & orange "superdry" tee shirt please e-mail phatclub@ts.co.nz and tell them u have it :D

"no brown drinking water this year, just pure west coast rainwater." we all know that was a load of crap.. The water looked like urine... yet again.. Food was shocking, nowhere NEAR as good as 08.. they could have at least put some bark down for the "mud pools" in the main stage.. they ran out of alcohol and ice yet again.. no point advertising "LIMITED CASH OUT" if there was going to be NONE AT ALL!! most people I knew bought plenty of cash along, but when they ran out there was no way to buy food!! What was the point charging $50 more for tickets when there was NOTHING more to show for it?? They could have at LEAST put in some more showers, i mean come on!! 8 showers for 5000 people?? And what`s with putting the price up for them as well?? Seems like they`re getting a bit greedy now. Shame really, I can name about 50 people who have been to the last 4 who won`t be going again, and believe me, word of mouth gets around too. Some major changes need to be made.

There`ll be 2 seperate lines for water this year, clear rainwater for drinking taps & river (beech infused) water for the hot showers & flush toilets; still hoping to have eftpos but the cell phone coverage will remain sketchy as you`d expect in a place called "the Wilderness" get down get dirty get phat
