Yeah, it's a bit rude when you go to a festival with a just a single mate/partner and tell them I will see you back at the tent at the end of the night, if not then maybe in the morning. You can get away with that when it's a larger group and so you can go off on your own and then later regroup.
Me and my missus had that those kinda debates about our last fest together where it was shall we see Prophets Of Rage or Lauryn Hill who clashed, luckily with Lauryn Hill always being late we ended up seeing both anyhow
