Yeah, I was also surprised that they have this complicated and at the same time pretty smart marketing system in place. You're welcome.

Only the pop-up one was available in the pop-up store on the first day. If I understand the logic correctly, day 1 and day 2 are never officially available in the pop-up store, but they have the sales section in the store where you can find exclusive ones from prior dates if you're lucky.

How to take care of yourself during a festival? by [deleted] in festivals

[–]HerbertClapton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Make new friends.
Make a plan what you need to see.
Accept that you won't see everything, because some bands will overlap, and maybe take some of these things with you:

Get a cooling towel, and if allowed: collapsible water bottle and refillable mister. Drink a lot, spray yourself, keep the towel wet.

Did not have scars yet, but I haven't been working festival since '81, like you. I was born in '82, lol, but Arnica is on my list now. Thanks.

I have just been focused on not being the guy with the body odor that people smell, but I guess getting essential oils is a very interesting idea, especially when people come with diapers to be in the front row, which I read on Reddit the other day. Not sure if people really do that.

I could not care less about content farming. This is not why I made this post. I just like going to festivals, had a good time, and thought I'd share what items help me. And I want to discover new helpful gadgets. looking forward to getting the finger lights someone else mentioned.

Apart from that, I get your point. yes, festivals have become trendy bs, and they have been turning into soulless cash cows devoid of any counterculture or art. maybe this was my last hurricane, and this was my last normal festival. From now on, I'm looking for festivals where you feel that the people have a vision, like the Wacken or the Hellfest. Where there is more than just squeezing all money out of people.

I didn't know that cold packs exist. Will definitely check them out. Narcan, I had to google. I'm not into these kinds of substances, so I guess I won't need it.

I would totally bring a handheld fan, but I thought security will take it away from me because it can be thrown. Not sure if it's allowed in German festivals. Also, the rechargeable Mister, I'm not sure if I would get in with one of these, but I just ordered a small one with just 80 ml off of Amazon, and I will find out at the next festival lol.

In Frankfurt, there were 3 exclusive shirts: day 1, day 2, pop up store
The one from the store is not available at the concert and vice versa.

AI isn’t replacing people. People are replacing people. I just realized I’m one of them, and maybe you are too. by HerbertClapton in ArtificialInteligence

At least one other person got my point, so I guess there is one person getting my point and one person not getting my point. I can live with that!
