Surrounded by thousands of your fellow music lovers, who are all there as you are, to delve into the experience of commiting to live music, plenty of entertainment and enjoying the buzzing atmosphere of the Rockness crowds for a few days...,
What would could be better than to spend these days, having fun with Scottish camping,
but to also be located in one of the most beautiful places a festival has to offer?
The stages are located perfectly, coming into few as you leave the camping area, the massive tents,swaying crowds and sounds to make you boogie as you walk, coax you into the arena maybe sooner than you planned. Probably best if you come with enough time to set up your tent as early as possible, as you don't wanna miss a thing!
The backdrop to the sound producing tents and stages, are a view, that makes the whole experience something that you're certain is of great worth. You know as you're standing there, maybe with friends and family as well, that this is an experience you wanna enjoy, remember and make the most of! You feel lucky.
I heavily advise a camera. Unfortunately and to my annoyance, I forgot mine.
The various tents, with a choice of music and different vibes that means whatever kinda party mood you're in, there's a place for you to go. It's exciting and fun to travel around the arena and experience everything, the music, the dance crowds, the attractions, the individual and fun clothes stalls, all the little bits and bobs like jewellary, sounvenirs... there's a shopping experience in Rockness too. So if you're a shopper, I'd take a few pennies. You could even get a spray on tattoo, try something new, get a new hairdo.... everyones a little bit looser with the festival atmosphere, (any maybe a bit sillier, as you can gather from my picture)and its good to try something a little out of the ordinary.
Its a people place, it's as if you have a town of music lovers for a couple of days, who are all there simply to have an awesome experience...
And the crowds of people are not the hassle and slight stress that can be caused by some bigger festivals where you can feel a bit like a sardine to be honest!
So I tell anyone, buy your ticket, get your camping gear sorted, take a camera and go. It's an experience that is irreducible to words. I left with some amazing memories, for myself, of amazing music, beautiful images, and awesome times with friends and also some new ones. I will definetly be going back. I believe like most things, it's what you make of it, and this place, you got all the ingredients (did i mention that selection of food was a welcome feast as well?) and more.
