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.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
    • I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
