Awooga awooga

A boogie at the back is an underrated experience.

Yip. Different things. The pit barrier has largely consigned scenes like the above to the past. Crowd behaviour is different these days too. But no matter what procedures or systems are in place, if you're somewhere near the front of 100,000 people having a massive party you do stand a chance of being jostled or having someone infringe your personal space. If you're not OK with that then it's not the place for you.

Delighted they don't have anything like that. If you want to show a clean pair of heels to e.g. West Holts but you have no choice to get spat out in entirely the opposite side of the crowd. Hell naw.

I guess you could nuke the existing account and create a new locked account you can only get added to via a thread on here. However, dunno if that would decrease the usefulness of the account as you'd dry up the useful info you'd get from random.

Depends on whether it's targeted solely at members of this forum or whether it's for anyone to use. It's the latter that's got it to 50k followers.

Was there in the middle of the afternoon this year.

Been there for a few years now I think.

Indeed. Not a fan of this turn of events.

Agreed. It should be someone with no tunes who upsets people.

Neil Diamond has done UK stadiums. ELO played Wembley.

What a show. It honestly doesn't get any better.

Lizzo is touring the UK March of next year.

You can get cipro on prescription in the UK, but it's available over the counter in pharmacies in SE Asia.

Maybe ciprofloxacin?

They also played longer and deployed a few choice cuts like Spacer and Like A Virgin.

All the singles.

Wednesday night, closing time at the Bimble Inn and the DJ was playing old funk and soul. Memories are a wee bit hazy but I'm 99% sure it was September by EWF that lures us onto the dancefloor.

Would struggle to contain my rage if I was settling into watching an evening of the Neilster and a grunge man came out bellowing about boys named Jeremy and the colour black.

Did anyone even go to see the Mary Chain this year?

There's two separate things here though. 1) Crowd gridlocks, crushes and surges are unsafe and should be avoided. 2) Glastonbury 2022 was worse for this than previous years I don't think anyone would dispute point 1), but it's point 2) that's more contentious. I've been in bad crowd situations in previous years - some years you get caught up in them and sometimes you avoid them completely.

Astroworld? Macca's show was stopped immediately when someone collapsed in the crowd. It's night and day in terms of response.

I was in the Diana Ross pit and as it finished as one everyone seemed to be heading to The Park to see Jack White.

We were up there on Saturday night and it was in place then.

Yup. No more secrets or surprises. Remove the element of mystery and discovery entirely.
