RE: Riots, Raves, Human Rights & Criminal Justice Bills (On the frontline of the UK's Free Festival & Illegal rave culture)
What a great post @perceptualflaws !! I attended the last Stonehenge Festival that was peaceful back in 83 or it could have been 84 not so sure ! Was Amazing, I remember the little medieval style tents selling acid and mushrooms !! With Hawkwind playing live on stage and Fireworks going off over and "in " your head all night !! Yes I heard the rumours of police beating pregnant women at the last attempt to continue with this "Thatcher " decided illegal fun and frolics !!
Hey @gomeravibz what a beautiful picture you paint there my friend :) Hawkwind always used to turn up at these festivals and I can't believe they're still going! These events really did used to police themselves and indeed you'd have been far safer there than out and about in your local town on a Saturday night! Perhaps that was an aspect that really bugged the government for you couldn't have a self reliant community, policing and taking responsibility for themselves. That would never do :) Thanks for the great comment and support my friend, I've been a bit held up today but I'm looking forward to catching up with your latest post.
Yes thanks @perceptualflaws !! I rode down there on my Vespa 225 was a blast till I ran out of juice and had to leave it at a gas station to fill her up on my return !! Man that night was a pretty crazy time I can say and never did I feel in danger, was just pure love and good times for everyone i met there !!
