And the bowie flash  from the other side (apologies, this isn't from the glastocam and I have posted it in the 'state of the ground' thread already)

Seems to be a lot of tents left?

Yep, ridiculous if you ask me given the plea everyone makes when buying tickets, and the constant reminder throughout to take your tent home and leave no trace.

I couldn't believe how many were left this year, despite all the requests in the run up and during the festival.

I had a walk through the field where we camped this morning (Michaels Mead) and I reckon of the tents that were left (a lot) three quarters were empty and had been left. And when I say empty, I mean empty of people, lots of them had a huge amount of crap left in them.

What I also couldn't believe was the amount of camping chairs left in the Pyramid field last night after Coldplay. We walked through about 1am and there were chairs everywhere and in some cases circles of 6 or so chairs where the whole group of people had left them! There was even a couple of fold up camping tables that had been left behind, in perfect condition! Can't understand it.

It's the wasteful society we live in unfortunately as the stuff is so cheap. If tents were £1000 there wouldn't be any left behind. Unfortunately a higher percentage of people who attend don't give two shits about the farm and the mess they create. I can honestly say I didn't leave a single piece of rubbish and even cleared up rubbish that other people left around my tent.

I am one of those who did leave things there, but in the designated bin areas. Leave my airbed every year as thats a ballache to carry back. - For future reference: Is there anywhere better I could have put them so they get put to use or anything?

Drives me mad when I see all the rubbish littered all around the site, though. Hardly the most difficult thing to put it in the bins.

    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare     
    • 6music just shared a video of all of Fontaines DC singing along to the Cure last night. It'll be them. Booooo    Olivia might get up for I Love You though...
    • Proper loser behaviour wearing a tee like that. Me and my mate play a game every year called ‘Boomer Tees’ and there’s some gems every time.
