Ein tausend Elefanten brechen aus

So, another Spring, another Whitby Goth Weekend...

Very impressed by the elephants! :-D

Am I imagining it, or did you not really hear any particularly good bands at all this time?

Not hearing any particularly good bands is pretty much standard for Whitby (in my opinion ;)

However: 3/4 on Friday were good, and 1.5/4 on Saturday - that's not a bad hit rate. I obviously am just having a negative-sounding morning!

Or I just lack context, which seems more likely. :-)

I'm very grumpy about my free time. If I spend more than a day doing something it had better be nothing short of excellent, or I will make this face :-| or, if the situation calls for it, this face :-( in response.

To be honest, the bands are something of an optional extra. I go to Whitby primarily to have a nice weekend away with Davefish and Keris, and to catch up with a bunch of people I don't see anywhere else. And I eat a lot of nice food, and do a bit of light shopping, and hang about on cliffs being windswept a bit and staring out to sea.

If I were going just for the bands I'd have definitely packed in long ago :)

That makes sense. I know people who go to game design conferences mainly to meet old friends and those don't have any good bands!

Care of insomnia am just reading the comments, and my first M'era Luna was 2001 and my last Whitby was 2002 - a fact that is probably related!
