1/5 of cheap Glen Vodka: 4 quid
4 Bags of Crisps: 5 quid
2 Day Passes to Lovebox: 80 Pounds
Drinking all day and night at an adult carnival: Priceless
It was an expensive weekend but it was worth every pence! A steady line of people poured into Lovebox as if it was the only thing in London. The fashion was almost as interesting as the festival itself. It was a mix of acts and types of people, making one hell of a party! Acts just seemed to come and go as they please, most of which Ashley and I only knew by name. Carnival rides, tents, and stages filled Victoria Park. By the second day Bumper Cars and a Ferris Wheel didn't seem out of place.
We pregamed each day but the atmosphere sent us to the bar over and over again. We entered a tent and worked our way to the front of the stage to listen to an unknown rapper. 3 hours and many shots later we worked our way out of the tent. The black tent made it seem like midnight, surprisingly it was still midday. We made our way to the cider treehouse for some unnecessary drinks. We finally made our way to the main stage to see Mark Ronson and pushed our way to the front of the crowd listening to an old British band. After 3 songs we were over the band, even if the crowd wasn't. We thought our plan worked, the crowd cleared out and we made our way to the front. We figured the older crowd would have to pee and we could make our move. Once we reached the front we realized, everyone cleared out. The security gaurd informed us, the show was over. The black tent didn't just mask the sun, apparently it masked the sounds of Mark Ronson going on. We missed the one act we wanted to see....that's the last time I hide in a tent all day! Well maybe not the last but next time maybe we will check the schedule first. Disappointing but still a great day of daydrinking!
