ME Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Just a heads up to anyone entering the Chelmsford area this weekend - forget it. The place will be swarming with the "great un-washed" going to the V Festival. We're doomed I tell you, DOOMED ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagsy Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) And there'll be no shoot at Copfurn as a result. The shoot will be over at Purleigh Wood instead :blink: Edited August 12, 2008 by Bagsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malkiserow Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I am confused, LV seems to think it will be busy in Chelmsford from v fest .............. others think it is in Staffs. Or perhaps there will be mighty long tailback across the UK? I was in an around Telford yesterday and the signs say it is off Junction 3 M54. Are there 2 V fests or is someone, in addition to me, confused? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 I'm going to Hylands Park and I can't bloody wait When we moved to the village 10ish years ago, I could hear Blur playing whilst I sat in the garden, very frustrating Since then I've been to every one I can get too Some top bands this year including Muse, Kings of Leon and Stereophonics P.

Pedro Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) Was it held in Hylands then as well? P. Edited August 15, 2008 by Pedro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markio Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) Was it held in Hylands then as well? P. Think so, because if i remember correctly Pulp were playing at the first V festival I went to at Hylands Park. The line up has slipped somewhat, girls aloud are other girl bands are playing this years, but tragic really. Still i have excellent memories of those weekends.

jimdfish Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 i think the first v was in Warrington and Pulp headlined and elastica played i on the second stage. And Gary numan was there. My missus was very pregnant and looked fantastic in a white bilowy dress jdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
