Byron

I'm going!!! ? havent really had a look at the line up yet, i was ampd for some metal acts tho...

Byron

seriously there are no metal acts this year at splashy. What happened??? Is it because of that one kid who got trampled in the mosh?

Probably - organisers get uptight about kids being trampled for some reason...

Riaan-Combrink

Here's the full line-up:

Mosh Pits yummmmmmmmm................

They just need a warning sign about pits and they should be fine.

They cant seriously not have any metal bands cos somebody got trampled.. i dont really know what happened with that, and although it does sound like a very unfortunate incident, if somebody twists their ankle skanking to some punk are they gonna get rid of that too?? you cant kill the metal, man
\m/(>,<)\m/

Somebody needs to organise a decent music festival in this country (maybe Oppiekoppie is good, i dunno). It seems splashy is just an excuse for people who generally don't like the music on offer to gather to drink and take drugs.. I must ask myself, y am i going?? :-\

Hopefully one of the bands will surprise me, i'l be sure to pack my tie-dye t shirt, my bell bottoms, my peace logo and my bongo drum.
