All Together Now 2019

A black hole of depression, thats all i can call this week.
Yesterday the hot topic was how i needed to emigrate to Australia, and sooner rather than later. Also dealt with eternal loneliness and a bit of death thrown in to the mix. Worst blues ever.

Had a great fuking weekend though.

Finally plucked up the courage to listen to the playlist of ATN last night..... i was not ready. Walking around Supervalu holding back the tears. George Fitzgerald - Roll back and Prince nearly made me climb in to the freezers and end it all.

Some of the best techno I've ever heard.

This was a highlight of the weekend for me, world class set!

Not a fan of techno usually, but Higher State of Consciousness was a special moment

I think its from the mdma but im not sure. If I do it more than 2 nights in a row I get the brain zaps for a few days. I developed a twitch after body and soul last year which was a first and I had it again after glasto this year, I think thats from the acid but it could be mdma as well.

I've been dreaming very vivid dreams then waking up with a kind of a zap. Didn't have any last night. As a temporary side effect will take it! just had a moment of teariness but not huge.

The MD I had was really pure, very little come down, could eat before going to sleep!! Really pure love/dancy buzz

****, totally forgot about Or:la, pity she wasn't playing on another night. Was on wind down on Sunday with just few beers so I could drive without too much of the fear on Monday morning.

Hit the road Jack was during the drum n bass set on Sunday around 1030. Actually have a video of it. Or:la was a superb end, pity they wouldn't give her 10 more minutes.

gee having read all the posts about the fear that some of ye guys are having (big hug), I am soo glad I don't do drugs.. (happy with some booze.. {i was staying locally and after a wee word in one of the Stewards ears on the way out fri night, I got to take in 4 cans and a hip flask of rum on sat and sun.. ha ha squeaky wheel and all that... then bought a few 5 lamps when i ran out } and good tunes).. and sure Kiasmos sent me on a trip of a lifetime anyway.. been listening to them and John Grant ever since I got back on Mon... still feeling serene.. waking up every morn with "black belt in my head.. can't believe this time last week i was on my way.. wish it was only now I was going..

Jaysus, brain zaps sound ****ing nasty. How hard do ye have to be into stuff to get them?

Ill keep my raw throat from weed and sick stomach from whiskey thanks very much.

i took a bit of everything this year, everyday... i wasn't messy but in hindsight I think I will do something like day 1 booze and smoke, day 2 booze and md, day 3 booze and maybe some md..

day 3 this year was just stupid.. (smoke, k, C, E and cid) despite that stupid cocktail I wasn't obviously fecked..

should be winding down that stuff at my age not ramping it up

I went full tilt on Friday night and Saturday day then crashed and burned on Sunday!,in my 20's i would be still going today late 30's now and all i wanted Sunday was my bed

boomshakalaka · 09-08-2019 12:36pm

I blame my endless tiredness this week on the extra car time. Had nothing to do with anything else like drinking, staying up for acts even though I was already half asleep, ... ;-)

SoundOfSilence · 09-08-2019 12:42pm

Brain zaps!! What a fantastically accurate phrase for what i was experiencing up until last night. I woke up wednesday with my head pulsing... was convinced I had vertigo, i was so dizzy. Felt absolutely nothing on Monday or Tuesday, they only seemed to kick in wednesday and Thursday in particular. I'm fairly sure they're gone altogether as of this morning.

What in gods name are they about? Can't remember drugs having that effect on me when i was younger. Must be an after effect of some mixer they add to pills these days?? Freaked the **** out of me!

D.Q · 09-08-2019 12:44pm

deeply unpleasant.

Although that first rush of proper happiness when it all clears is so nice. Haven't been content for about 6 days.

Suckit · 09-08-2019 12:57pm

When all the toxins have left your system and the brain start functioning normally again.
It's no longer a chore to find phone charger and get the bloody phone into it and put on socks!!

Muahahaha · 09-08-2019 1:00pm

Jaysis lads if youre still feeling the effects several days later there must be some really strong stuff about. When I got to late 30s coke gave me heart palpitations and ecstasy a lazy eye so gave it up after that. Be careful out there.

rubick · 09-08-2019 1:05pm

Haven't dabbled in quite a few years, the idea scares the living keek outta me.
Fair play to you legends, stay safe

Really enjoyed Or:la's set too. One of my highlights of the weekend. After a fairly relentless techno set, I thought it was a nice touch to finish with Lindstrom - Closing Shot. Cracking tune, will never get old.

Pretty sure she played Josh Wink - Are You There at some stage during the set too?

Where is this on? Might be tempted if my seretonin is back to human levels by then.

whats the feedback email again?

hello@alltogethernow.ie

Got a fairly generic response, but it was more than 1 sentence and it made me feel good (but not entirely convinced they actually read my 3 page email).

Is this just a DJ set?

if you want to email 2 of the people in charge at POD:

rbutler@pod.ie - Robbie Butler, Director of POD
will@pod.ie - Will Rolfe, Director of ATN

Sensible and constructive emails are probably better, rather than a whinge about how you sat in traffic or got stung by a wasp. I'm sure they're aware of those issues.

cheers sent it off and got something similar back. Have never given feedback before but I feel weirdly invested in this.

I emailed the 'hello' email on tuesday to let them know how fantastic I found the festival but ended it with a few things that i felt could be improved. I got back an email saying thanks and that it would be forwarded to the appropriate people then got one back from Will yesterday thanking me and saying that everyones point were being noted with a view to improving things next year
