Wave Gothic Festival

Some of that said in that article wasn't very nice.

Loving the pics though!

I just saved the pic with the black hair gal with red in her hair........the fishnets.......sorry but I'm a guy and that was hot!!!!!!!!

Yeah, the comments are none too nice, but the pictures are great!

Those images are absolutely beautiful!

I really love the Victorian and Rococo inspired outfits... but all of the images are just so beautiful!

Loved the pics! I thought the comments were funny.

Fantastic Photos

It was so nice to see that.
I love seeing people all dressed to the nines.

It's crazy for me to imagine at this day and age, people still have that "shocked" reaction to the way some people dress and how they have a good time. All those theatrical and good-humored people seem just happy to be out and about and dressed up, good for them. A 4-day show sounds like a hoot.

^^ I know. People make fun because they don't understand, so they feel intimidated. But it still surprises me how easily intimidated people can be.

The photos (from what I can see of them; I'm on the laptop, so many don't want to load) are great -- had I been there, I'd have been so visually distracted I'd be dizzy!

Those pictures make me jealous and want to drool; at the same time, I feel so ungoth. Meh, oh well.

^^ The festival is probably a chance for them to crank up their goth factor, though, kind of like Renfaires are a chance to put on the fairy wings you wouldn't necessarily wear to the supermarket.

I don't doubt they're goth (and I don't doubt you're goth!) but on a scale of zero to goth, I'll bet they're about a 7 in their daily lives, whereas at the festival they have a chance to go to 11.

I think we all scale back at times, and flaunt at other times.

my friend is there and i am not -_- the poor synth, she mopes!

I love the photo of the girl with the ripped fishnets
A future Helen gig outfit idea perhaps?


Actually I loved all of the photos because they showed just how diverse we are as a culture
