*tries to remember the Music act.*

I don't recall seeing a mosh pit...I do remember shuffling...

The Polyphonic Spree was great. Then again, I was high at the time.

I was pretty much the whole festival. I'm sure getting up in the morning and having a j and a beer is a large part of the point of being there.

Should you leave Holland having paid too much tax it's pretty easy to get a tax rebate from outside the country.

I would think much of the music is a bit heavy to just have s huffle pit. It wasn't the most vicious pit of the weekend, but it neither was it lacklustre.

Likewise. Watched SoD, went to see an hour of Metallica then off to the Music.

At the front it was a lot more 'hectic'. It wasn't a circle pit, but definately some decent moshing going on.

Same here However it is not necessary, simply being in the same tent as the Polyphonic Spree in that kind of form is enough to make you high

And I am so so sorry for inflicting that upon the world

This isn't a club thread, that would imply it's restricted to people. Anyone can post, and put it back on topic, we just happen to be discussing something someone bought up.

I don't know why everyone seems to knock them so. Yes they're not the best of least commercial band of the weekend, but they had a bigger pit than almost any other, they had the first circle pit of the weekend (that I saw). I'd be more worried with a circle pit at Junior Senior

Since I don't agree with it, I'm thinking no. I'm quite glad I didn't have it, since that would mean me being responsible for something I don't agree with.

Well they are incredibly pop...you should have seen a band like Pennywise or something that would probably have a significant circle pit...
