The 10 commandments of a “happy” Untold

1. I, the god of Untold, am your lord god. I recommend you to have idols other than me, because as they say, together we are stronger. 

2. Come to me as a true occult magician. I already promote the occult anyway, don’t be afraid of that. Not because I believe in the occult, I’m too smart as the god of Untold to believe in such a thing, but it’s profitable baby, it really is profitable. You can include the most indecent clothes and the most confident attitude. You must impress, even shock if you can. That’s what life is all about, selling what sells, right?

3. You leave your morals at home during those four hot August days. Moral prejudices will just get in your way, leave them at the festival gate. You don’t have to care that you’re contributing to a context of depravity and moral decadence. Your ultimate goal is to have fun, you’re young and confused anyway. 

4. Enjoy being part of an atmosphere of alcohol and drug abuse. You might even have the chance to make some money by sharing drugs.

5. Don’t care about your contribution to an atmosphere that helps the suicide phenomenon every year. Be glad that Untold is an environment where those who make such festivals possible eventually come to the conclusion that life is no longer worth living (RIP Avicii). Year after year the suicide phenomenon is part of the post-Untold news. The saying goes, it’s no longer worth living if Untold is over. So just live in the moment, dissolve into it!

6. Remember the times when you started worshipping the god of pleasure, don’t forget that special moment. He is anyway the only god worth your worship.  The image of the crowd of stoned teenagers, maybe even for the first time, will help you to reflect. It’s not worth caring about those naive kids who enter the world of drugs at this festival. How they get out of there is strictly their business, what you need is just to have fun!

7. Don’t care about the birds that have nests in the Central Park of Cluj-Napoca. The ones that have to leave their natural habitat because of Armin Van Buren’s loud bass waves. The animals make no sense to the city resident, that is, the man who does strictly what he wants with the natural environment. They are only of use to us if they are behind a refrigerated display case.

8. You can forget during the 4 days about the children with cancer hospitalized in Oncology, only 1 km away. However, the really important thing is that you have fun! Those children will die sooner or later anyway and besides, being at the festival you don’t see their pain. So it doesn’t matter! 

9.  Don’t care about the people of the sacrificial city of Cluj-Napoca. Even though they have to give away 4 nights of their lives for free, year after year. The noise of these ecstatic rituals, given in honor of the god Untold, is really worth any possible discomfort.

10. Be happy for all those grandparents who come from all over Romania and who are hospitalized in Surgery, Oncology, Gastro-Enterology, Infectious Diseases, Psychiatry, etc. and who, thanks to Untold, lose the chance to rest on those nights. All these hospitals are within 1-2 km from the Untold stages. Some say that democracy is about doing what you want with your freedom, as long as you don’t violate the freedom of others. Of course you are special, you have the right to choose what freedom means to others, because the only freedom that matters is the one you enjoy. Right? I guess that comes easily to you when those whose freedom you are violating are on a hospital bed, away from you and your entertainment, and you obviously don’t know them personally. Who matters is you and your vibe!
