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.

    • If the below link works - thats interesting.   While I don't particularly put much stock in that account as a source (never seen it before though, tbf), and I can pick a hole or two (see below) in what he says - the timing of it is a week before I had the Fontaines '27 stadium info (same stadium he says on there, Tottenham). The info, or part of it, matches up.   Holes I'd pick: I'd have to watch again but I THINK he says 'end of year' for Tottenham - not possible, for a number of reasons, though he's probably just got his words mixed up there. It's Summer '27. He also says Glastonbury is/would be based on how the album does. That doesn't stack up to me, unless it was a 2028 thing. I suppose that could stack up, but still seems a bit of an odd approach. I would personally still expect it to be 2027 alongside the stadium gigs, IF they are gonna do it, though I've still not got a Scooby when the album is gonna drop, only that the tour is due for Spring (or early) next year.   Interesting, nonetheless.   https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaOB3Q9qkwW/
    • I was hoping that they would just do a tour like they were set to in 2020, rather than having Download as their UK appearance. If they are at DL, I would be surprised to see them headline. I think they sub under Deftones or SOAD 
    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over.
