I'm not talking about the volunteers on the ticket / re-entry gates, they were checking my ticket HARD!!! Every single time I entered, in depth ticket checks, remove glasses for photo checks, wristband checks (sometimes multiples.) They worked their asses off, at pace, to try and keep the festival safe, whilst keeping queues moving... Nothing but admiration for them. 👏 It's the bag checkers I was talking about, I 'think' they're paid SIA badged security staff, rather than volunteers aren't they?

yep, never seen so many searches and security was far more heavy-handed/motivated than I've previously seen. Saw a bloke getting all his socks and clothes individually unrolled and checked, but he was in one of the "you will be searched" queues. Security were shouting at each other to "Search more, at least one in five" and doing fairly half-arsed searches, but definitely more significant than I've ever seen before. We were at gate A. Wondering if they outsourced it and some of the staff were keen to prove themselves or steal some stashes for personal use.

I bumped into Luke M @ glasto watching Steel Pulse. I asked him about what Reggae there was and he would only confirm Damien Marley. Kicking myself I didn't ask about the prodigy 🤦♂️ I'm a doughnut sometimes

Ahem...can't say I didn't scrutinise some tickets more than others. Also, the ONLY ones where the ID didn't match (or was questionable) were from the same place, then thankfully it wasn't my decision as they get passed onto the supervisor or gate manager. The fact they didn't kick off at me when scrutinising was very telling I thought... Anyway I can say all this stuff because I'm from around here and know for a fact how many "find a way". On a general thing, I chatted to some of the security at the gate and they had been working at a gig I was at the week before. I'm wondering if they were applying the same standards they do at normal gigs (keep all drugs out etc) to Glastonbury?
