What changes would make 2013 even better

[abu hamster]

Sorry but bollocks to it I had a great time and the only one I agree with is the chairs

[abu hamster]

Take your own sanitisers it's 1.50 for 4 that will do 2 fests

Now tell us you had a great time and go away

- 10p deposit scheme on cups. They could do it easily, Reading and Leeds have proved it's workable, and it would really help clean up the mess.

[abu hamster]

Perhaps the best way to improve it would be to loosen up a bit

[abdoujaparov]

There's non-dance music to be found late at night. It could definitely be better publicised though (and might take some of the crowds away from Shangri-La).

[ukslim]

I spend a lot of my late night time in the greenfields...the Smallworld and Tadpole stages in particular are a nice antidote to most of the rest of the festival

[fred quimby]

Free hover boots in the mud years (well maybe a depopsit based system)

A "not as good as it used to be tent". Folks could go and have a little moan, and then after they can enjoy themselves.

No ugly people policy.

Exactly this. On the other hand, those are small spaces, and probably couldn't handle the extra crowds they'd get if they were better known.

[ukslim]

but in any case, I'm not sure that they will appeal to much of the Arcadia/SL crowd...

[abdoujaparov]

Do you think?

I think lots of people trudge over there because they've inferred that it's "the thing to do", and when they get there, they find themselves surrounded by dance music, thinking "I wish there was a less dancey place to go this time of night".

[Uh-Oh!]

Hate to use the B word for Glastonbury but banning chairs from the music arenas would be the only improvement for me. How this is achieved? now thats another question.

mobile phones that you can shave with

donkeys

naked eavis pops out of bushes randomly, shouting and waving like a mental

deep fried brothers

popup poo tubes around stages

proper old fashioned deck chairs

gazebo hats

orthopaedic mud

I didn't spend much time in front of the Pyramid so may missed them but on the few occasions I was there I didn't see any consciousness raising films about the activities of Oxfam or Wateraid etc between acts. I'd like to see more promoting of the causes.

[amfy]

On the portaloos that flush - which are mainly on outlying campsites, could there be a really clear sign somewhere around head height to advise people that they do flush and remind them to do so? I swear that there are many people that seriously don't realise that you are supposed to flush them!

This may be because of the longdrops and the turdises like by The Other stage that you don't flush, but people really need to learn the difference. Once 2-3 people have failed to flush, everyone behind them will assume it won't flush and then all is lost, it is just a matter of time till they are a disgusting overflowing mess.

I recon giving Bangface their own tent for for the entire festival would be a big improvement, one does love ones gabba of an evening.

[whateverman]

Guns on site. Randomly, or a deposit scheme. Would raise the stakes.

Naked beach.

One way system to be a big trick to syphon off all the wallys.

Bangface arena - I agree with that bloke (though Bez is doing a good job).

A big tower. Bigger than the one in the park. More like Blackpool tower.

I'm a bit pissed (can u tell?)

Some cows (like in India).

Dance village - take a little look at what's happening in the opposite corner and learn a few lessons about atmosphere, drama and spectacle.

Bezs acid house was ace, although some nights you just want something harder!!!! oh and a bit less dubstep perhaps, don't get me wrong I love a bit of wub wub waaaaaaaaaa action but it was every where book some more varied djs/acts squarepusher, aphex twin etc...

(cup deposits)

I would agree except that they seem to have overcome those things at Reading, and that's a pretty hard-nosed, commercially-minded festival.

[izcuje]

Not sure what's the ratio like but being at the main stages I saw a lot more cans being effortlessly dropped to the ground than paper cups.
