Took a shit load of mushrooms and saw native Americans riding on horseback through the site. The moon also changed colour and there was a man with 2 heads holding a baby. The DIY tent had a projection of my family sat round a dinner table which I thought was a bit odd. Woke up in the boot of a Volvo Estate with a conveyer belt of every type of character you could imagine bumping into the back windows as they walked passed. Woke up, blagged an egg butty from a random truck and then proceeded to do it all again. Good times :)
Smelt bad near DiY tent after a few days because city kids can't shit in the woods like an animal would! Borrowed a shovel and wandered like a crazy person... Brew Crew being pissed. Bless Alison Storer for kinda intervention 😇

I went and had a good time, but even when I was there i remember thinking thats it, it’s over this is the end they are not going to allow this ever again and it was the end if it. But the authorities responded in a very different way to the military style offensive seen at Stonehenge - probably partly due the sheer size of it, but the brutal attacks hadn’t seemed to be as effective as they obviously hoped. Some people thought the whole thing was engineered but i think some brighter elements took advantage of what was developing and rather than clamp down let it happen. This then resulted in a complete media frenzy, TV and press were frothing at the mouths and the amount of coverage was extreme. the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 began its journey in 1992, pumped with the manufactured outrage following Castlemorton. By the time it reached statute two years later, it included criminal sanctions against assembly, outdoor unlicensed music events, unauthorised camping, squatting and 'aggravated trespass' (public demonstrations). The law also reduced the number of vehicles which could gather together from 12 (as stipulated in the Public Order Act 1986) to six. The news-manufacture used to prepare the public palate for the coming law was incessant. The year after Castlemorton Common, the police set up Operation Snapshot, an intelligence gathering exercise on raves and travellers designed to establish a database of personal details, registration numbers, park up sites and movements. This information was used as a backbone for an ongoing intelligence operation begun by the Southern Central Intelligence Unit (SCIU), operated from Devizes in Wiltshire and initially co-ordinated by PC Malcolm Keene. The extraordinary lengths taken by the authorities to annihilate travellers, raves and festivals are a testament to the treatment meted out to cultural minorities outside the acceptable hegemony. Yet at the same time I think the scene could have been a bit cleverer, i mean what did you think would happen - the daily mail reading masses would suddenly change their minds and start popping little fellas and get on the road?
Thanks for putting up these images with the set. www.tuneid.com/showthread.php?54565-Simon-DK-Castlemorton-1992-TRACKLIST A sad loss indeed. RIP Simon DK.
