I work in live music production and have done for over a decade. The idea that a festival didn't assess the weights of what was going on stage / getting flown whilst advancing is a staggering failure on a logistical, technical and H&S front. It's not impossible that Justice arrived with oodles more equipment than stated, sadly this does happen. But for an act at their level on the international festival circuit with a very complex show, I lean towards this being a Primavera f**k up. Gutted for everyone who missed out.

2016 was horrible. I consider myself a hardy person and have been going to Glastonbury since the mid 90s but that was the first year I just felt I couldn’t enjoy it. Getting anywhere took 3 times longer than normal so we missed so much. All our kit was caked in mud and there was nowhere to sit down you were on your feet all day. Having to eat standing up in mud with sore legs is grim. It felt dangerous in many areas as the usual flow of people was broken by impassable mud pits so you would see people slip over then get trampled. Finding anyone was so much harder as by the time you could get to where they were they had given up and moved. It felt the mood of the festival was hampered too as by the Saturday everyone just seemed grumpy and fed up. Many events were cancelled as some pitches were just mud baths and some food vendors had to shut up shop as you couldn’t access their pitch. We gave up on everything on Sunday and just sat by our tent drinking all day which just felt pointless and heartbreaking.

You're still allowed to describe it in writing though, right?
