There's always some people who really need to learn their limit's with their drink

Can sometimes make for entertaining viewing though

Who was the worst that people saw?

For me it was a guy who pissed himself on the spot during Gogol Bordello at Leeds. He then went to take his piss soaked shorts and underwear off and stand bottom half naked for a minute. Then he squatted and tried to take a shit but couldn't quite squeeze one out. So he put his short on again and put his soaked boxers on his face, before swiftly breakdancing and posing to camera's

Man he was in a bad state

A scouse lass camped next to us. She got out of her tent, crouched down about 10 feet away from her chair and sort of backed into it. Arrived at the chair about 20 seconds later and promptly fell straight off the back of it. She then laid on her back for a while and did a sort of crab thing as her denim hot pants slowly moistened, because of the weird shape she was making it started to trickle down her body too. Then she took her shorts off and passed out.

Suddenly I don't think I was that bad!

As a non-camper I woke up at 2am on Friday night at a train station, assumed it was Reading station and that I had missed the last train. Turns out it was Newbury station just 5 mins from my house. I must have caught the train, got off and just gone to sleep on a bench. I was glad of a good lie in on Saturday morning in my own bed, let me tell you.

Saw one guy beer funnel 4 strongbow's (he'd probably already had a lot before)

He then went back in his tent for about 30 seconds, then it hit him.

He got up stumbling round, falling into chairs and tents before falling into the swamp next to us and then throwing up in there, and falling in it again.

i got completely pised in the pub about 2 minutes from the reading entrance. some hilarious guys in there trying to charge people to go to the toilet. i can remember walking through red camp shouting 'green army', and my mates abandoning me because they were so pissed off. wasnt sick though, and felt fine in the morning, so its all good.

We played a drinking game on the Sunday morning while watching Zombie Land. Everytime a zombie died, we downed a mouthfull of red wine. Needless to say, I got absolutly wasted and had to be carried back to my tent. Then I started moaning in my sleep at about 4am which got the CAT's attention. After calling them every single word under the sun, I got taken away on a stretcher to the medical tent. I woke up a few hours later (still pretty drunk mind you) and got told that they were afraid I had taken something (which is fair I guess). I then stumbled back to my tent, opened the zip and just collapsed in.

Not the most interesting of story's, but it has a lesson which I learned. DON'T DRINK RED WINE AND WATCH ZOMBIELAND!!!!

Not this year but in 2008 there were guys going round Red in Leeds with a garden gnome shouting 'neck the gnome'. The rule was you down in then fill it up with as much of your random alcohol as you can. My mate downed it at 4pm Wednesday, went from sober to completely smashed in about 10 minutes and then slept until Friday morning. Impressive.

Bloke at Guns N Roses (Leeds)

It was pitch black over the left side of the main stage and there was this 40 to 45 year old bloke off his trolley. One minute he was properly head-banging to Welcome to the Jungle, smoking his fag. Axl decides to play something new from Chinese Democracy and the guy passes out on the floor. We turn around to look down and he's still smoking his fag even though he's passed out. The fag dies out and he's still on the floor. Live and Let Die comes on and the guy gets back up and does the exact same thing again.

After Live and Let Die, the guy vanished into the crowd and we never saw him again. That was probably the worst I saw, although there was this girl coming out of the arena after Arcade Fire who was walking into everybody and starting fights, fell over, started some more fights, fell over and then tried to get onto the ferris wheel.

I can't remember much of Sunday, so I could be any of these hahaha. I remember going into the arena Sunday morning, a bit drunk from the night before, buying more drink, then I sortof remember being pulled out of the crowd before Delphic for no reason? (must've been a reason) and my mind is blank from when I was lifted over the barrier to waking up 4am Monday in my tent. O_O What a waster.

    • Never too early to start discussing next year’s headliners right?   I’m not attending this year so thought I’d get the ball rolling as I saw Weezer have a new album out in August I’d expect them to do this or Slam Dunk next year. I mean they’re probably too big for this however I think they’re niche enough that they would maybe do it, it just depends on if the fee is a bit out of range for trees.    It’ll be the 20th anniversary next year so I’d expect some throwbacks and hopefully some big headliners/acts. James has already said he’s made a mad booking that you wouldn’t guess & I think he mentioned that he’s spent something like 80% of this years budget of next years top line already on last weeks 2 promoters 1 pod (Don’t quote me on that).    I reckon they’ll try for and get at least two (not all) of the following - Enter Shikari, AFI, Weezer, Sex Pistols Feat Frank Carter, Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls
    • for some reason last night watched series one of Prey on Netflix.   if Legends was written by Timmy Mallet (see above) then Prey seems to have been made by Mr Blobby.   why are all these British crime dramas so sh*t?
    • It'll be all over various Seatfillers based upon previous years at Sandringham
    • The Jayhawks 2026 UK Tour    Sept 15 – Brighton – Corn Exchange  Sept 16 – London – Electric Ballroom Sept 17 – Manchester – Academy 2 Sept 18 – Glasgow – The Garage    For you ‘americana’ lovers. They have a great song book.
    • Weezer just announced a new album & US tour so could add them to the headliner pool. Imagine they’ll do this or trees
