I understand there was a lot of things that didn’t go right at boomtown but there’s no taking away that it wasn’t still a great year

The biggest one that irritates me is the people complaint about the “lack of dnb” there was more than enough dnb with some of the biggest names about wilkinson, sub focus, amc, KOTR, andy c, kelvin that’s just to name a few of them not to mention a bunch of others as someone who loves dnb myself I think there’s been plenty and boomtown has always been great for being a multi genre festival in fact the best is vibing to music you wouldn’t usually gravitate towards if you want strictly loads of dnb go forbidden, bass fest, or many of the other festivals out there

I’ve pretty much got my costume for saturday all together now just the last touches i’m going for a dune/wasteland kind of look the colours are brown for the bottoms then lighter colours for the top half so looking at getting some brown/black stuff to smear onto the clothes to give it more of that wasteland look if anyone’s got any suggestions of what to use would appreciate it

before anyone comments about the theme being 100 years on the future if it all went right I didn’t want to do that

my brains absolutely fried and haven’t got a clue feel the options are much more limited as a guy anyone got any suggestions

I start basic training in october this year and am starting to buy all my stuff and always wanted to get a good iron to make my life as easy as possible any recommendations or anything I should be looking out for when buying one would be appreciated

I’ve always wondered why uber drivers are on the phone all the time is it to make the night go quicker? do they talk to other uber drivers?

and if so what do they even talk about for so long sometimes they’re on call and then will go silent for ages then start talking again is it like a group call where people just join when they want?

Not booked a date yet but going to soon love many genres hard techno, groove, bounce, trance but open minded, I have been to berlin before went last year for the first time I loved club OST and visited tresor as well didn’t mind tresor but not somewhere I could stay all night, before people suggest checking resident advisor I already have and there’s not anyone I recognise really so just open to recommendations on any artist you’d suggest or clubs to visit based off my taste

I’ve been to berlin before and loved the techno experience but was thinking of going again my friends are on the fence about going and I wouldn’t mind going solo but wanted to know do most of the clubs allow solo people in

Bit of background I keep seeing everywhere recently videos about people not tipping perhaps with the world cup going on over there right now, and saw a woman on tiktok the other day complaining about the fact she only got tipped 280 dollars 😭

However i’ve always seen tipping as a way to show appreciation for a waiter that goes above and beyond rather than a mandatory thing and shouldn’t be the job of the customers to pay the wages of the waiters when that should surely be the employers not to mention a lot of restaurants already have a service charge included in the bill

I understand it is the norm for people to tip over in the US but once again it should be the restaurant owners who make that change In sure myself and many more wouldn’t mind paying more a meal if it meant the workers were to get paid the right amount and still get the optional tip at the end of the service is deemed good

and then the last point is correct me if i’m wrong but in most restaurants isn’t the tip 20% of whatever the meal cost, which I also find absurd so if you was to eat a more expensive meal you’re expected to tip more say a meal came to 200 you’d be expected to tip 40 dollars

Mainly looking at the more obscure items that most people wouldn’t usually take

Ive never heard of it before but saw the lineup looks really good and it’s super cheap compared to other festivals, only thing I did see that I was skeptical of is that they allow u18s in which could potentially affect the vibe of the festival
