Another Summer Knights review

ok ill try to be as objective as possible, but this is from my point of view so if i start ranting just skim past to the good stuff. here we go...

upon arriving at the entrance, we were approached by some unfriendly looking security staff, and searched quite thouroughly.
one of the staff found my bag of weed and started to give me a hard time. Fourtunatly, instead of trying to confiscate it he told me to return it to my car... no biggy, I walk down the trail a touch and ginch it. back to the gates where my friends patiently waiting for me. This time the security dude has a smug look on his face and is bragging about how he used to be a jail gaurd, as he searches me again this time making me remove my shoes...
anyways he finds nothing and in we go!
The venue is set up totaly different from the last party Island style 3 where the stages were way to close to eachother. The lay out was great, with fenced off trails leading through the different stages. And there was even a beer gardens, but Ididnt bother checking it out, I was too stoked to dance. The first set was amasing and had a 30 ft stage. Props to erik on the lighting, and aron for the visuals. Only problem was the generator was to close to the stage and was interfering with the music. so we went to check out the other sets up the trail.
Dont you hate it when people shine flashlights in your face! well i got used to it by the end of the night, as the trails were almost pitch black. Set 2 was dimmly light and there were only afew people siting around the wood chip pit, on a large cement slab. We stoped and chated with some peeps for a bit the made our way up to the 3rd stage.
This was my fav stage just for the fact that it was so far away from the other stages and it was enclosed by huge trees. The music was pumping and there were some people spinning glow sticks & Matrix was doing his kewl magik trix. Not much of a light set up but the atmosphere was inviting.
We decided to chill there and have a dub sesh. Man I dunno how many L's we smoked but if u were at set 3 you proly had a hit of one of em. Just around 2:00 It started to rain, wich was great and helped pack down the dusty woodchips. I dont think ive ever danced so much in my life, beacuse from when it rained to wen the sun came out, all I can remember is goin off. When 8:00 rolled round we made our way back to set 2 and played some frisby. Props to Tom for being so generous and passing out friut. We smoked more weed made more friends danced our last bit of juice out and were just getting ready to go, the generator died out on us and tael had to boot everyone. all and all a good party.
I know lots of people took pics and videos, lemme know If you guys got any.

It rained.
I had fun.
I got fucked up and danced for ten friggin hours.
I have to say that the trail going up to the third stade could have used a little more light, but what can I say? Trying to light a ronii lighter with sweaty hands never seemed more difficult before. True, as Indy said, the setup was a lot better than Island style, which was cool. All the music wasn't clashing, no train wreck ;)
those screws of a security pissed me off all night, but being under the influence, and dancing all night let me forget about them pretty damn quick. Thank god for the H2O, or I would have died. Happy birthday to one of the DJs in the early morning, props to Tom for hookin up the fruit, your a life saver. I hope to see mike again spinin fire.
