Sleep Depravation, and 5 star hotel with no wifi.
Well we’re here and safe. Very tired due to getting up at 2am and not really sleeping since. Got my festival pass and a sofa to sleep on. Got to have a brief and chaotic sound check today, but everything should be awesome. Bearsuit will grace the Adidas classic stage at 8:30pm. So not long.
Running on empty so i think i should prob eat and drink. All feels like a dream….
