That's a good point, they're also very useful for people who want to stand, but can't manage a whole set / concert due to disability or injury.
I haven't done a gig there yet, is it any good for music? Haven't done Spurs either, that looks good.
You joke but I don't think they could handle it, and I reckon health and safety has (probably rightly) tightened up on what's acceptable conditions in the last 9 years. Next wet one could be interesting. If 2016 happened now, I reckon there's a chance they'd cancel it
Yeah. I mean, I get it. From the glade to the SE corner is worst affected by mud, water drains down into there when it's wet and it's the last place with puddles before the place dries up every time.
I remember seeing Rolf Harris (eek!) in 2009 after it had f**ked it down all morning and it was like an inland sea, thick mud and a couple of inches or more of standing water covering about 1/3 of the standing space at the front right of the stage into the t&c field.
