FLARES @ LEEDS

[mandymember]

Me and my friend are going to take a couple of hand held flares to leeds festival this year. Anyone here got any tips or personal experience on flares at festivals? Don't bother telling me im a c**t or how you're going to point security straight to me - Im there to have fun not adhere to your comfort levels.

The trick is to light them at home.

[the wonderwhy]

Then stick 'em up your bum. 

[mandymember]

The trick is you're a fag

I always find shoving them up your arse works.

Fuck sake Matt

My tip would be to cover it in petrol and THEN shove it up your bum

[Yellow_Fellow]

aye, put them up your arse and light them far away from where you'll burn other people, you utter c**t

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Shoving them up your bum would likely be the only way to get them in. Lighting it whilst up there is certainly a good idea.

What a delightful member of society our Mandy seems to be. 

My one and only tip for using a flare at a festival is to not be a c**t and ensure those around you are safe whilst you use it  otherwise fill your boots/ arse

I for one see no problem with it

I've heard 70's fashion is meant to be making a comeback anyway

dont see the problem with them. a hand held one would't hurt anyone as its designed to be in close proximity to you. lights the set up and from my experience people love them. you're pobably the lot that stand right at the back where you get a better view on bbc3.

[Yellow_Fellow]

you've been told where to put it, b

Yes a flaming torch is always going be a fantastic idea held aloft by the inebriated in a crowed area. Certainly the sort of place they was designed to be set off.

If you have to prewarn by saying dont call me a c**t do you not think the thing you wanna do is rather c**ty?

God you're cool. Can I hang out with you at Reading? Pleeeeease

[devilman]

My tip is to get a good dentist if you light it next to me.

No need to worry about that on here, I do it at every gig I go to. It's sort of half me being an utter LAD, half me signalling to Millwall's youth firm where I am. On a side note, who is a more genius lyricist, Liam Fray or Jake Bugg? Obviously neither are as godly as Alex Turner though.

I'd say Liam Fray

• Don't light them where there's a lot of crowd movement where you might lose control.
• Make sure you're on someone's shoulders and holding it high up in the air.
• If security come by, hand it to them.
• Don't fucking drop or throw it.
