i live in cambs an strawberry fair is fat, small scale festival in the centre of cambridge, ive been for the last 12 years an its always a feature

it is true that theres no dance stage this year, police said there were tomany class a’s around the dance stage and to get the licence they would have to abandon the dance stage (have to close summint every 2/3 years to keep the licence), theres still reggae tent, uk hip hop tent and a number of small stages with bands on + the main stage (i have no idea whos playin)

police tend to turn a blind eye to rug use but have a keen eye for dealers, always see sum rude boys being chased by pigs

if your close by then head down the geldart (near cambs station) on friday for upstanding, dnb ragga reggae jungle gabba 10-2

Come along dude. it’s a good day out. The dance tent used to be run by Planet yes crew, while the reggae is run by my good friends from 1footskank. Loadsa hippy stalls, etc; It’ a good laugh. I’m going for the first time in 3 years as usually have had exams around now.

After parties are always good as well.

(bollocks.. just spilled me beer!)

yup, i’m going… think its reggae night in the grapes the night before.. was gonna surf a mates sofa afterwards and head from there…..

I may actually be going if I can still get a lift.

wanna go, but unsure if i will due to finances, adn the train is a bit too much, dunno, if i do go will be up for meetin up with ya all! been for the past couple of years, did anyone go a couple of years ago and see keiritsu play???? werent they just the titties?!!!:horay:

Havent been to this for 3 years, although alwasy used to go, wanted to take the littlun but some friends went last year and rekonned the vibe was a bit dodgy..lots of people rollin around pissed up and generaly “anethatised”.

Anyone else go last year on the family tip, it only an hour away so it might be a good day put, shame about the dance sounds though

the festival ends quite early as its in the centre of town,
so its no probs gettin a train back but dnt hold out hope for late trains as they go around 10 o’clock!!!!!!!!!
theres always stuff going on after

Thanks mate it always seemed ok when we used to go in the past YBH the friends who went last year tend to be a little paranoid about such things. The littlun loves a run about and a bit on dancin…proper Hardcore Progeny 😉

id much prefer to go to strawbery fair as a kid than a grow up 2 be fair,

now adays i jus get pissed and milled up and dance around, stuff like the patchwork circus was some of the most fun i had as a kid, my parents couldnt drag me away an most stuff is free (or used to be it is gettin more an more commercial)

and if its is at all nasty then theres a kids playground 5mins walk down the river,

its not really a drug taking music festival more a day out for the family, theres loads of rides bouncy things and such, sure after 5/6 in the evening it gets a bit ugly but kids will be exauseted if not already in bed by then.

yeah life for land have always played on the dance stage, no dance stage this yr, ah well maybe the’ll main stage it up,
