Another year another action filled NASS festival. This time with added tony hawk among many other athletes. Last photo is from the Roni Size slot, rain had been hitting the festival heavy all day and the ground was beginning to give up. Didn’t deter the fans though who danced all the way through it, and me being two small very expensive bottles of wine deep, definitely joined in
