Ramfest festival Guide!

As you may know we go to a lot of festivals. So along the way we’ve learnt what you really should have and what you can skip. Our festival guides have been compiled over the past year with the help of many of our readers. We’ve thanked those responsible in the list below, although their suggestions may have occurred on different festival guide posts. If you have everything on this list you’ll be happy, very happy!

Firstly a quick word from Disco [PH Fat]

“Number 1 rule to any outdoor festival:
DONT BE A BITCH!!!”

YOU’LL NEED

**NB Sunblock :: The Forecast for this weekend shows extreme heat on all three days. BE PREPARED**

Essentials

• Drinks – You can never have enough Booze!
• Food – Bring more than you think, we ran out quick! When you’re drunk you eat! Although in order to circumvent this you can just bring extra money.
• Seat – Fu*k! Just make sure you have a seat. I didn’t, and you’ll wish you had one! Get an R80 camping chair, it’ll be worth every penny!
• Toothbrush and toiletries - To wash away the sin
• Sleeping Bag and Pillow – Do not forget this like I did – You will be very, very unhappy without it!
• Sleeping arrangements - Tent, Camper Van or something similar. Trust me the backseat of a car sucks!
• Loads of Cash – The line for the ATM was mental [This applies to Oppikoppi - No Idea what the Ram Fest line will be like]
• Rehidrat, Headache Tablets, Liver Helpers and Rennies – This shit will save either you or a friend I promise!
• Shot Glasses, Water Bottle and Plastic Cups – These things are often overlooked and you’ll undoubtedly want them all.
• Camera – With extra batteries, to capture that Kodak moment.
• Rizla & scissors – For making paper models! - Thanks James
• Bikini/swimming cossie and sunblock! - For swimming, not dancing! - Thanks Caterina
• Skottle - Always good to have - Thanks Craig
• Condoms & all that jazz - Hey you never know! Festival, Drinking and both sexes in close proximity we know what can happen. Safety first!
• Sarong – to wet and carry to the dance-floor to stay cool - Thanks Jade
• Large Hat/Beach Ball/9ft Inflatable animal – So your friends can find you easily Thanks jade - Thanks Jade

You might overlook or want to get

• Shoes - Now I know you think you look schweet! in your new high heels – but f*ck that shit make sure you wear comfortable shoes.
• Cellphone car-charger – Get one of these – its 2-3 days and your phone will die.
• Blow up mattress or something similar – I know this is a push but it looked mighty good in my mates tent. I was wishing I had one!
• Lock for your tent - We had no problems but it’s always a good idea – Hint make it a combination one, you’ll loose the keys.

Might help

• Some form of Hippie sh*t, help you make friends with the locals
• Weird Outfit – There’s always a couple of people taking things a tad bit too far, maybe join them. It entertains the rest of us

Leave at Home

• Your persian Euro Trash music. No-one wants to hear it pumping from your 4 subwoofers
• Wife beaters [The Clothing] save it for H20

There we have it, use it don’t use. See you front right!
