Each to their own but to me this is so sad - why spend all day stuck on one stage just so you are 'right at the front' for one band 12 plus hours later. -
A mate and I did it on the Saturday in 2000, but we arrived about 4-5pm, when it was easy to be right in there, and moved onto the barrier at some point over the next couple of hours. It was a fun time, we chatted with a lot of folks who were doing the same. Neither of us were big drinkers, instead sticking to the smoking sundries, so bladder issues weren't a problem. I wouldn't do it again, tbh, we had a great day and the lineup happened to coincide for a good run of 90s indie and britpop bands but it feels like too much hassle now.

There were posts on the Site Quieter? thread from folk working on the security side that seemed to be saying that there were new systems in place to clamp down on the numbers of people there without tickets. And certainly in my experience the site overall was quieter than 2022 / 2023. I think that's a more meaningful area to target. -
The turn-styles on the left were there so that Coldplay could access the satellite stage mid-gig.

And to get back on topic, it boggles my mind that ppl would stay on the barrier all day. Seems like an arduous task, planning piss breaks, fighting thru the crowds to get food, asking ppl to hold your space etc. I remember during Run the Jewels being on the barrier and then couple next to me looked exhausted. Mid-fifties, waiting for Foos. When the bass and soundcheck started, they looked uncomfortable, let alone when the gig actually started. I know Foos are loud too, but don't think they liked RTJ or the pit at all for the following hour 😆
