Best of 2014: Festivals

We tried to prepare you for the fact that the toilets would be horrific, the sex would be even worse.

Worst case scenario: you spent 4 days sitting in a puddle gumming talcum powder and went home to a week of the most messed up dreams of your life, which we then paid someone to illustrate.

But regardless of what you did, don’t ever forget that time we held your hand through your festival comedown.
