I want this room. And for it to be last summer.

I wish I owned a boombox. I have the strange desire to walk around the city centre blaring a Lionel Richie Best Of and pointing at people in an encouraging day.

Decided to stop being a mink and snipped off my festival wristbands. Oldest was Bloodstock 2009.

My wrist feels naked... :(

Did the exact same (oldest also BOA 09) a couple of months ago, sewing them onto a jacket now though :D

Fjar and I did the same last week (mine dating back to Wacken 2006).

Bought a posh watch to replace them xD

Cut off mine last week. Oldest was Wacken 2007. It's not made much of a difference - it's now nicer to do the washing up without sitting with a sodden hank of fabric on my wrist for an hour, and tbf it just looks nicer. Silly to be sentimental about a wristband, really, they were just getting in the way.

I get fed up with them after a weekend, how you can deal with them for years, I'll never know!

I cut my BOA media one off after half a year maybe. Still got my BOA 13 and Hellfest 13 ones on. Was talking about this in the pub on Friday though, once I cut them off I feel so weird for a while without them. They don't really annoy me in anyway though, and they give me something to play with :lol:

I still have my Wacken 2013 one on. They only annoy me when they star getting frayed and tatty looking. I have them all saved somewhere though.

"Private session" in Spotify is basically porn mode.
