i'm confused....what's out of place?

There's quite a few local DJs, which I think is great. And if you've ever heard Kootenay DJs....you'd know it's totally worth it. There's some talented people that come from this area, I'll tell ya.

Some headliners from the UK too. We had Krafty Kuts last year, which rocked my world.

And, everyone's favorite DJ, Lorin. You have to hear him to understand. Fucking amazing.

Whoa. I think my august may be too full of stuff. This looks immensely awesome, but I don't even think school is done by then... wait, August 4th. Damn. Ok, well then it looks like I'm gonna fall back on no money and no ride.

But damn, Capital J... just one of many I'd love to see.

P.S fuck the line up shambles isnt about the lineup its about doing shrromies and partying with hippies in the woods..the lineup dosnt make this party the production(which is better then anyhting you will ever hope to see in vancouver) dosnt make this party...this party is a combination of so many things...think of it this way you have a shitload of people from calgary vancouver and edmonton who are all driving atleast 8 hours to go to this event(not to mention all the others traveling from all over the sates and even from europe and asia), they came there to party, its only partiers, and the fact that people made that effort just goes to show how good this is

p.s im loosing about 1100 dollars taking a week and half of work to go to this party, and if you know how greedy i am....then fuck youd be impressed hahah

I've got the friday and the monday booked off work. If I had the vacation time available I might book a bit more, but... I don't.

I went to Shambhala 2002... people talk about it being "life changing".. I don't know about that, but it was definetly an amazing fucking experience...

The thing about parties that you have to road trip to get to, is that... because everyone has put so much effort into getting ready, and getting there.. no-one fucks around when it comes time to party. When there were parties every weekend at Raverside, and later the Plaza of Nations.. they lost a lot of their true (non drug induced) appeal, because they were just some stupid bullshit that you could half-ass your way over to without a second thought.

If you're going to Shambhala, you might as well BRING IT! Do more drugs, party harder, have more fun, hook up with more random people, etc etc etc. Everyone goes there planning on having the time of their life; no-one is there to hang out for a bit and then go out into the parking lot and break into cars.

Some random things I remember from last time I was there:

- Finding a couch in the middle of the woods and lying on it for a long time
- Dancing to a 4 hour reggae/dub set (Solomonic Sound.. BIG UP!) with a bottle of juice and vodka in one hand, a spliff in the other hand, great friends at my side and a shit-eating grin on my face
- Dancing to a 2 hour breaks set (later that night/morning!) by Lee Coombs.. When he started, I thought I was tired.. at some point during his set I realized I wasn't going to sleep until he was off the decks.. fucking amazing
- The visuals... the forest... combining into one awe inspiring entity
- Trekking with a friend down a dusty road to nowhere in the middle of a hot afternoon... passing many a hippy camp/commune
- Smoking so much pot that I stopped noticing when I was smoking pot.
- The temperature difference.. from 25-30 celcius in the day, to like.. 5?.. at night? ... still, beats burning man.
- MUSIC! ALL THE TIME, MUSIC! WHENEVER YOU WANT, ALMOST ANY STYLE YOU WANT!
- TRAINWRECKS! They're not all headliners, after all =)

In conclusion, I'd like to apologize to those of you offended by the excessive swearing in this post. I'm just really fucking excited about going again =D

Cheers
Dave

Yes.. I'm going to miss this year... It's just a little far and expensive..I will be supporting some local parties this year. Shambhala is great and all but time to find something new for me.!!

And don't call me a prissy girl or anything for asking this, I'm going bathroom or no bathroom i just would rather have the first.

there will be a shit load of portapotties but youll probably rather go in the woods..and yes there will be hot showers but they cost five bones for five minutes..but trust me itll be the ebst five bucks you ever spent.

or you could bathe in the Salmor River (using biodegradable soap and hair products, of course) if you're up for it. The Salmo river is pretty cold, but it's pretty freakin' hot anyway when the sun is beating down on the festival in the middle of the day.

I heard they may not be bringing the showers back this year, but it was just kind of something someone told me. So I wouldn't put too much faith into it.

Hotel!? It's all about the camping girl! If not camping, go for a hostel. That'll only set you back $20.

As for the time off work... I book work off months in advance just for this party. I'm booking my time off for next Shambhala (05) as soon as I get back from Shambhala 04. Heh. It's just one of those parties that can't be missed.

It's all about being organized for this event way ahead of time.
