Make One Non-Musical Change To Improve R&L

[Vieuphoria]

Empty the pit after every performance, gives everyone a chance to be right near the front.

Plenty of time to do this between acts, would also cut down on the crowd chatting and not interested in the act on stage.

Weren't you complaining about people being miserable. Now you dislike chatting?

[Vieuphoria]

Oh no I agree. Pissed me off when Radiohead were playing.

[Vieuphoria]

Although kicking people out of a tent probably wouldn't work.

Would of saved the rubbish experience that I had in 2010 of standing all the way through Paramore, bored rigid, waiting for Blink182.

Here's another couple of changes -

1. make the site circular with the campsites surrounding the arena so there isn't the huge mission to get back to White campsite and this would help with the people flow as everyone would be leavign the arena along differant paths.

2. The nuclear option - lost the concept of arena altogether and scatter the stages accross the site like at Glastonbury - you can take your own drinks and the congestion is much less.

The best idea, all festivals should do it this way.

[thetime]

Then they can't sell day tickets

[AcademicPistol]

Day tickets available for main stage only?

[Vieuphoria]

Bit convoluted. How about we keep it as is?

Yeah bit annoying I wish there was a way to enhance the freedom a bit.

Don't sell day tickets, simple.

Not gonna happen, they are struggling as it is.

[AcademicPistol]

Agreed, it's shame i can't really see a way for it to be a more free festival.

[RichieParf]

I think something as simple as a wider arena entrance/exit would help just to get people out quicker, always takes ages to get out after the final act.

I think this concept of regulating the front pit is a great idea. At MUSE last year we got into the front and nobody around us was dancing. Nobody. We, on the other hand, were having the time of our lives which actually seemed to bother some people. Two blokes next to us we're chatting the entire way through, even critising MUSE and it's followers - why be there of all you're going to do is talk badly about the band? There are 4 other stages to go to, why stick around?

Hmm, sorry about the rant but it just really annoyed me >.<

I don't think you can regulate it without being overbearing. It's a free space, how can you determine who deserves to be there and who doesn't?

[Andre91]

Anyone who's paid for a ticket deserves to be there.

Take the festival, and put it on a boat.
