Last day of Graspop!

6/23/2024

Hello Everybody! It has been the last day of Graspop! The weather has been great but some things did go wrong during the day!
I woke up later than expected, Which was intended, as I didn't want to go up early, So I chilled in bed for a bit, until breakfast opened up at 8am. I had a huge breakfast, which is well needed!
After breakfast, I chilled some more, until deciding to head to the festival, but managed to take the wrong train, so I had to go back and take the right train, which meant that I arrived one hour later than expected! But to be fair, it wasn't a huge line for the bus when I arrived!
I eventually arrived at the festival, and went to fill up my water bottle, and had a look around!
I started seeing Atreyu at the main stage, and after a while I went to an other stage for Crystal Lake which which a friend recommended, which were an inside stage, and it was warm as hell! The music was alright, but the acoustic was bad!
Then I went to have something to eat, and went to see Black Stone Cherry! Then I noticed that I couldn't charge my phone, as I had brought a battery pack with me, and I noticed that a tiny piece of wood had somehow found itself into the charging port!
With no tooth pick in sight, I decided to head back, as I was tired anyway from the heat! I managed to get an early bus, so I was very early to the train, so I had to wait! I eventually got on the train, and got to Herentals, where I went to the hotel, and asked for a pick, which I got, and got out the wood, and managed to recharge my phone!
What did I think of this rendition of Graspop! The Set up was mostly the same as last time I was there, and the music acts were alright, a couple I managed to see from both Download and Graspop!
The thing that bothered me with this years Graspop is the fact that you have a armband with a QR code, that you need to top with "Skullies" to pay for food and drinks, which were expensive! Maybe a little more expensive than paying for food with ordinary money at Download!
Then of course Graspop also had problems with rain and mud, but Graspop handled it better and it wasn't as muddy as Download, but Graspop did have mud!
Will I go back? Not in a while, since it's getting more expensive with festivals, and the novelty has worn out for me!
It also depends of the music is worth it or not!
