I know there are dozens of threads, with opinion after opinion but being a scientist I like clear, concise data :P So a poll it is :P

*my bad edited it half way through, I didn't vote on the third one either :P so the 3rd question is -4 votes!

I think banning them is totally unworkable!

I also can see why it annoys people that they are at the front of the stage but I think that in general, we are controlled too much in this country. Glastonbury is the one place that feels a little more free. If they start banning flags it will feel less free and a bit like governments legislating against every little thing!

They don't really bother me anyway though.

Why not just ask him nicely not to post anymore flag threads? As there's too many around already? People can surely just move away from the posts? and they do help people to find their way around the forum. :P

The results so far speak for themselves!! :P

KEEP FLAGS

DON'T ALLOW THEM IN FRONT STAGE/CROWD AREA (unless no one is playing) &

KEEP THEM DOWN DURING LIVE PERFORMANCES :P

A good balance at last? Keep them but let people see the stage! :(:P

    • UK to strip back procurement rules to focus on job creation, says Louise Haigh https://www.ft.com/content/9878a2e4-3ac5-43b0-b2c9-b1fe1a4b65e7?syn-25a6b1a6=1   Burnham is not serious about tackling climate change. Having conditions on govt contractors is one of the easiest ways to drive standards and behaviour.

    • What is too old for Leeds Fest now ?  I'm going to the Fontaines Saturday in a few weeks at 54 !!!  I may be the oldest there 🙂    Wythenshawe may be an option for WA.
    • Pretty much all festivals lose out on major artists because of production limitations though. Glastonbury is no different to most other festivals.  Lots of acts can/will adapt their tour production to suit festival stages if they want to play them, but some acts with stage designs and routines just don't want to adapt, and would rather just stick with a rigid, well-rehearsed production and take the money for their own gigs, whether that's a lot more than playing Glastonbury, or slightly less than playing some other festivals (but with added complications). Trying to adapt the stage, layout, access to b-stages etc to accommodate a single headliner on a Friday and then having to change it all around for a Saturday headliner isn't really a goer when most headliners can just easily adapt their show to stay on a main stage, if they're so inclined. They have a year to figure out how to perform a song on a main stage and ditch a few dance routines out on a b-stage if they really put their mind to it. It's not that difficult......
    • I would be all over Wolf Alice but may have outgrown this venue.    Also have to consider the schedule they have been on this year so may be on a break.  This last 10 days alone they did Tramlines, New York, Chicago and Kendal Calling.  Although make hay while the sun shines may come into play.
