I bloody love a good festival. I haven't been to one in a couple of years and next weekend I am off to 2000 Trees with my cousin and a few friends, and I literally cannot wait. I hadn't heard of this festival before, but after looking at the line up I just knew that I had to go. Not only are the bands themselves going to be amazing, but the vibe of the whole festival sounds so good. There is an acoustic stage set up in the forest with hammocks - I definitely cannot wait to chill there! They also have a specific day where everyone has to wear fancy dress (a guilty pleasure of mine). The festival goers were able to vote for the fancy dress theme and this year it was decided as '2000 Trees On The High Seas' so a lovely mix of pirates, mermaids, rum and surfers - I best get outfit planning really!
I've decided to compile a little list of the bands I am most excited to see. Luckily for me, I have checked the timings and there seems to be no major clashes between bands! There are a couple which overlap by a few songs but that I can handle. Check them out and let me know if you discover any new bands!
The Front Bottoms
The Menzingers
Slaves
Deaf Havana
Mallory Knox
Spring King
Fizzy Blood
Pulled Apart By Horses
Dinosaur Pile-Up
Gnarwolves
Nothing But Theives
Some others which I couldn't find YouTube videos for on Blogger:
Feed The Rhino / The Wonder Years / Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes / Strange Bones
