2006, laatste jaar voor Wasted
WASTED STATEMENT
1996-2006 THE END OF AN ERA
Well folks, after much discussion, we have come to the monumentous decision to make
2006 the final year of festivals. We have both enjoyed the last ten years immensely
even though there have been problems at times, but we now feel that it has reached
its end and that it is time to end it while it is still on top and can go out with
the bang it deserves. Neither of us would want it to fizzle out pathetically and be
a shadow of its former self!
Darren intends to take a well deserved sabatical, Sharky, Leaky and a lot of other
members of the team need a rest (Leaky had hair ten years ago when we met him) and I
am off to persue herbal medicine and other stuff.
So with all this in mind, we intend to make Blackpool the best yet and we are
totally fired up to bring you a great festival. The signs are already positive that
it will be a great festival and of course there is Amsterdam in May to get the party
started. Darren still plans to fit Australia in which has been an ambition of his
for years and there will be the farewell party at The Carleton in Morecambe in
October.
We'd like to thank everyone who has come to our festivals over the last ten years -
Bath 95, London Forum 96 and 97 Holidays in the Sun, Autumn Gatherings, Holidays in
the Smokes, Wasteds home and abroad and the one dayers in Nottingham 98, Viva la
Punk in New York, Wasted@Xmas etc, some of you have become great friends and we've
met the most amazing people along the way.
Well that's all for now folks, love ya loads and see you somewhere!
