March Hare

I hope you have a lovely day too. There was no venom in my post even though I disagree. I camped close by and there was lots of room. But the way modern festival goers are, they don’t need much excuse to take advantage of slack controls. I have a friend in accessible and the rest of us camped elsewhere as it didn’t feel right taking that space. There should always be an over supply in those areas imo. There is no deflection, following the reaction to my post I’ve been as active as I’ve ever been in this thread with follow up comments. I’ve owned it.

😂 forgive me if I don’t open with that 😂

Look out for the leopard skin bucket hat - That’s me

Just downloaded my workers ticket 🎉

The lanyard says 2023 tickets will go on sale on Thursday 29th September. My friends and I can’t wait to go back to our fifth one

It’s not cool to camp in accessible camping if you don’t need to be there. That shouldn’t be encouraged

Agree with this, you should feed back to them with these comments

I’d don’t know, haven’t given that any thought. It poses an interesting question on the mountain stage - at which point can you have 1-2 minutes of festival talk in the crowd. 20 rows back(?), in the queue for the Hippy Chippy(?), behind the sound stage(?), on the first/second/third terrace(?). My point is annoying things are subjective. I don’t talk at the cinema so perhaps I’m inconsistent. But maybe it’s not a fair comparison unless punters are also watching a film while spraying bubbles up in the air while waving pac man characters on a stick. I’m going to dip out of this chat now because Deliveroo has just arrived. I wasn’t trying to antagonise, I said 1-2 minutes of festival chat in a set. I’m not the person chatting though a whole set. If my excited festival chat during a set bothers you then I’m sorry your gig enjoyment has been affected. What causes annoyance often is subjective. In a festival situation I accept everyone is enjoying things in their own way.

Again, I’m commenting to give a different perspective. Sitting down making it hard for me to bounce around, especially when quite close to the front

I appreciate that. It’s not talk about work etc, it’s normally about the festival stuff like how much I love the song that just played etc. I’m not going to move out of a 45 minute set for that. Just got to let it slide I don’t understand big hats, late arrivals pushing forward etc so we all have stuff that annoys. I should add if I’m not doing it while on the railing.

Im one of the people who will chat during a set. Sometimes it will last a minute or two. I’m there to hang out with my mates who I don’t see very often. Everyone does gigs in their own way I suppose. Many like to sit down for example 😂

There were checks at the fire outside chai wallahs around 01:00 with security shining torches on a handful of peoples wrists. Looked like lip service.

Joe & the Shitboys were outstanding on the rising stage. The lack of branded 2022 cups was a bit meh Seen the Umlauts twice now (last time at EOTR). They overachieved being on at that time on that stage. Overall, a brilliant festival with a brilliant crowd.

Don’t get into stereotypes. Saying ‘these people acting like dickheads are dickheads’ is enough. Don’t need to broaden it.

Totally agree. Although I don’t go down the ticket route because of the cost (buying for two), if I was, it would be positive vibes all winter.

Yeah, whacking above inflation rises on all those add-ons adds up

You could be right. In which case they will find the money from other sources like merch, bar prices and vendor pitches. But my guess is they will do that as well. It will go hand in hand with the ticket price increases.

If it’s going to happen expect interviews in September from EE softening us up and maybe a different type of payment plan. Probably introduce the NHS perks at the same time to offset the negative press
