stuartbert two hats Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) Genuinely unpopular opinion, I think: wandering round the SE corner like it's a rollercoaster and you're a tourist is totally fine. We're all tourists, none of us live there. Edited May 4, 2023 by stuartbert two hats not -> none 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 It'll be a crying shame if we have venues that disappear and no secret sets from now on due to people complaining about crowds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another eforum account Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 I like the Sunday Seaguls - but what did they do during Covid/the fallow years? Do they come for a reccy first & tell their mates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a certain camaraderie when it's muddy, a 'we're all in this together' spirit and the belief that we don't care about that state of the ground and we're gonna party anyway, and party harder - this just isn't there when it isn't muddy. Maybe this comes form 1998 being my first festival, it's never muddy like it was then these days - literally seas of mud absolutely everywhere. Rain can sod off though, mud's ok but rain is just depressing. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 The younger crowd are the ones bringing some life to the festival by actually dancing / bouncing at sets and generally creating a bit of atmosphere. 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishinginthelongdrops Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 1. At least half of the food stalls serve overpriced rubbish. 2. Novelty acts should not be advertised anywhere 3. People that rope/tape off their camping spot should be relocated to a special camping area outside of the fence 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do somewhat agree with you but I think we can get a little of the same can do attitude when it's super hot and we're all melting, but at least in the evening you can sit on the ground lol (just cant bring myself to see anything good in having rain hahah) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
