The wife and I reworked our trip back to Hungary and we got tickets to both Balaton Sound and Sziget again.... I'm super stoked they keep adding big acts to both.

Nice! I started a new job this summer and my work schedule was more flexible then I was anticipating, otherwise I would of made my trip a couple days longer. . I'm heading out Thursday evening and returning Monday afternoon. I may look into changing the Thursday flight to an earlier time as I have the day off work.

CP meet in Budapest? My buddy and I are renting a caravan in the VIP section. It's only costing us a bit more than paying for a week in a hostel would've.

Does anyone know why The Prodigy are still such massive headliners: are they still pumping out hits in Europe? Are they still riding on the success of Fat Of The Land? I checked their set lists and about 1/3 of their material is from FotL.

That said, I'd put my money down to see them in a heartbeat.

I'm really not all that familiar with them, but it seems like their shows get really good reviews.

They had some pretty good success with Invaders Must Die, but I seen them live at Balaton Sound last year and waaaaaay back in 2001. And they are unreal live, probably one of the most energetic acts I have ever seen live.

I'd be down for meeting up, my wife's was born in Budapest so we have the luxury of having a place to stay and car provided for us so we will be driving as close as we can and wall or take the train down. Sziget is an amazing experience I enjoy it more than Coachella, any lackings in the music is made up by the beauty of Budapest.

We're getting into Budapest on the evening of the 9th (the Saturday before th festival). I'm guessing the bars will be ridiculous that weekend.

Did anyone check out the Sled Island warm up party? I really wanted to check out Shad but couldn't make it down.

Ya, but I was actually looking at the US line-ups when I bought the tickets. Still a good festival, but missing some good bands in Toronto.

Just bought tickets to Off Festival in Katowice Poland! Here's a few of the big names. Plus Slowdive and The Jesus and Mary Chain were added late. Very excited. Great and unique lineup. Choked about Belle and Sebastian vs 65daysofstatic conflict though.

I'm going to be in Katowice this summer. I hope I get a glimpse of some "perfect p###y"...

Full line up for Ultra Europe has been released!

Looks like I'll be planting myself and growing roots at the mainstage for most of the festival. I'm so stoked that there are no conflicts!!!! I'm actually going to see everyone I want. That's insane. Sorry EDC guys, but I think I'm actually going to have a better time here simply because of that.






I mean the first day alone I'll be seeing:

Deorro, Chainsmokers, Showtek, Example, Fedde Le Grand, Martin Garrix, Nicky Romero, Above & Beyond and Hardwell.

That's insane. I'm giddy like a little school girl.

Damn, that "Ultra Worldwide Arena" looks unreal Friday night. I wouldn't leave all night.

I wouldn't mind seeing Pretty Lights but Above and Beyond trumps. I loved their set at EDC last year.

I'm sorry, but I can't take any festival seriously that has Aoki in a headlining slot on the mainstage.

Hey Mr. Grey, that's what the children say
Life used to be so hard, get off my yard

They're so young, they're so dumb
They don't understand
Kids don't follow, kids don't lead
Kids go hand in hand

But old Mr. Grey will slowly fade away
Old Mr. Grey, Hey Mr. Grey
