Spiritualized

A good friend of mine is helping to organise 'Festival 23' - a celebration of discordian counterculture, which I thought may be of interest to you good people:

Did anyone go to this? I LOVE Alan Moore. Hero

Great to see AOS3's return going strong. Growing up they were a local band who killed it at festivals, great lads too.

I used to live in Sheffield, would be interested to know where this secret venue was, I can't seem to find much info in those links above. I remember DiY when they were first getting started, they used to put on some great parties and club nights. I had no idea Peter Woosh et al were still going!

Both names take me right back to fond if a bit fuzzy memories of my mispent youth ... getting too old to do all that good fun with any dignity really sucks

Will there be another festival 23 next year?

Unfortunately I didn't get to go myself (I'd already booked a holiday) but I've spoken to my friend who organised it and it was incredible; life-altering.

There won't be one next year - the plan is to have it again in 2018.

As for location, I will find out...
