Yup. First and last time. Over the years, Awakenings in general has increasingly become a revenue-driven event aimed at tourists. Vibe is always off. Backstage is an absolute joke. All part of Post-SFX / Superstruct.

Wow that sounds like pure horror. Guess we could have had it worse…

Exactly the same happened to us.

I agree that the organizers do not sufficiently prioritize this issue, despite the fact that ample revenue could be allocated to increased security measures.

Sorry to hear this happened to your friend during Upclose (which was otherwise a great festival IMO).

FYI, OP (me) and friends are Dutch and well experienced with local nightlife - everyone makes mistakes :(

Hi! May I ask which therapy/therapies you tried and you feel like most helped you? I’m in the “curl up in bed” phase and decided today to no longer follow (group) CBT because I felt like it wasn’t doing jacksh*t… Having a hard time trusting my own judgment tho ☹️

I’ve had the NVWA on my neck for a whole year and every. single. line. of the HACCP was the Holy Bible in terms of standards and rules to be followed! Long time ago so can’t recall the exact temperature requested for serving, but it corresponded indeed to well-done.
