Not one to tell people how to do their festival, but the time you're up and away from camp in the morning does feel pretty wrong tbh.

😁 The amount of things I've been getting wrong is astonishing. 

 

You'll find me at The Temple until 6am this year, dancing my ass off to some dreadful bollocks.

So glad I come here for advice. Looking forward to accidentally dropping my heavily-laden trousers in a suspicious puddle in the long drops this year rather than just carrying stuff in a small bag 🙃

I love an Efests trope 😄 bags are for wimps, pockets are enough!

 

no they're not, and you're all happy when i bring out a bag of nuts/fizzy snakes/a can of barrel-aged imperial stout and offer em around in the middle of a crowd, innit? bags are a very marginal annoyance, and a right result when you need something.

Bags are annoying. Especially when the person in front of you is bouncing up and down and whacking it in your face.

 

Reminds me of a funny time when a buxom lady was stood behind me in a dense crowd, and bouncing her assets on my back the whole time. I was particularly concerned because I was stood next to my then girlfriend now wife at the time. It made me less nervous when I saw how much my girlfriend was laughing at my reaction.

This, having to carry the damn thing around, restricting your freedom to dance in or get through a crowd and the high chance of putting it down somewhere and forgetting it.

This. Even swaying side to side in a dense crowd you are shoving your bag into someone’s gut unless you are synchronised. I know that when I used to carry a bag on my back it used to jar my shoulder and neck when I hit someone so people must be aware. 
If you need to carry a bag please carry it in your hands when moving through crowds and between your feet when watching a set

have you stayed there @benny lawless ?

 

thanks for joining today to share your thoughts.

I help with the build. For every camper, there's a cost attached. More showers/loos etc there's an inherent cost. We're trying to keep the camp small and create a family vibe- not necessarily kids, but a community. The last two years, everyone has left the camp knowing everyone's names and sad that the wknd is over. We've had people come back to us, which is a nice touch. Hope to see you there. Free pint on arrival if you remember the password "sausages". Don't tell anyone.

I like a day bag, not gonna lie.  I have an ancient cheap canvas messenger bag that is just enough for 3 or 4 cold cans, baccie, weed, rizla and lighters, tissues, antibac and suncream.  It goes in front of me when I walk or in a crowd, makes for lumbar support or a pillow when parked on the floor and a nice little table to skin up on in comfort at gigs.  It celebrated it's 30th birthday this year, after buying it for a fiver at Phoenix in 94.

 

I've experienced the dude oblivious to the fact he's repeatedly bumping into you, on one occasion every time I moved this dude and his mate seemed to appear again 2 minutes later right in front of me to repeat the experience, I swear I'd have considered it with malice aforethought if it hadn't been for the fact that he and his mate spent the entire time ignoring the act and at shouting volume discussing the wealth and property values of the parents of apparently everyone they knew.

I’ve got this weird feeling that I was there, or maybe (shock/horror)it’s a common occurrence

Honestly it completely killed the vibe for me, was at Tame Impala when they headlined other and this braying twat just yelled over the music about how much Francesca's parents place is worth when the gardens are the size of a small county.

 

The beauty of a festival crowd, I have always found, is that moving a few feet in any direction is no hassle if someone around you is a distraction, but it was like he was tied on with string.

My day bag's pretty much identical to that. The fastener died but I'm pretty certain it's still in my camping gear, just need to fix that. But yep, big enough to make a little rolling mat is perfect for cackhanded me

We've strayed from the subject of random posh camping praise, and I like it.  Chairs outside of camp can get in the sea.

 

As for bags, as impressive as a pair of combat shorts can be for carrying almost everything you need, they just don't cut it for carrying liquids beyond hip flask size and let's be honest, at Glastonbury a hip flask is gonna last you no time at all.
