Migraine Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Does anyone know what was happening in Lovebullets Sunday evening about 8:30? There wasn't about 50 police and security blocking the exits and waiting around the tent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfy Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I had my break from The Glade Bar at about 9 and there were still a lot of police standing around keeping an eye on that tent which seemed to be fairly sparsely occupied by then. I also wondered what had gone on. No signs of trouble just around the corner watching Gentlemans Dub Club at The Glade, so clearly quite an isolated issue.

Migraine Posted June 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Yeah it seemed really isolated I was moving between Gentleman's Dub Club and Dreadzone when I saw it and as you said normal security presence at both those tents.

giantkatestacks Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 That place is the new Beat Hotel in terms of litterpicking hell and the sorts of stuff we are finding in there though so not really a surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benc Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I thought I read somewhere about a gang and fake £20 notes in that area... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Someoni Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I walked past them in a full blown ganja suit. Smoking, pretty much screaming search me. Not even a glance, they were there for a specific reason I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty5294 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I was volunteering with Shelter on the West Holts bar and spoke with a lady on the way back from the festival who had been on the bar at Love Bullets. She said it had been absolute hell working on that bar and a full blown fight had kicked off (I presume this is why all the police were there.) She said she got nothing but abuse from the majority of punters all weekend in there and there was little to no security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justperfect Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I fancied a go on the vertual reality club thing they had close by but everytime I passed that area it was full of idiots so never bothered to stop, infact most of that area around the glade was a no go for me this year.

Ah what a shame, always love it around Glade. Didn't spend too much time there this year (other than a brief dance in the Spaceport), but hope the atmosphere didn't suffer. Does Elrow attract idiots or something? Can't say I know much about it really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantkatestacks Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 The soundclash now between there and the Glade is truly terrifying as well at times. Headmangling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amfy Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 The Glade itself seemed pretty lovely all weekend. The Saturday night crowd were a bit more arsey - but then we ran out of almost every drink you could name so I didn't really blame them! Most of our customers were lovely - but round the corner at The Brew Bar (by Love Bullet) which is also Shelter, I get her things were a bit different. It's amazing how much Glastonbury can vary n 20 yards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Spent a fair chunk of time in the Spike after hours this year and the vibe was always Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario man Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 My mate was in the tent at that time & he realised it got noticeably quieter, when he left to come over to meet me at west holts he then also noticed the police outside. Said he saw nothing going on inside whilst he was there though so couldn't understand what they were there for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the largest police presence I have seen at Glastonbury so it seems odd that nothing apparent was going on inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, he took a photo and showed me! He couldn't understand it as there were none when he arrived & nothing happened whilst he was there!

Skoo Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Was at Elrow for a few hours on the Thursday when we couldn't get anywhere near the Stonebridge Bar for Eats Everything. Noticed a few trout pouts and hair extensions etc, but apart from that the crowd was pretty good - this was day time though. Left at about 5pm to glorious sunshine outside the tent, was absolutely amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubber Soldier Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 The Glade is the worst bit of the festival for me. Rubbish "thump thump thump" dance music, crowd full of agro out their nut idiots. Not a nice vibe to the place at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovebullets scared the shit out of me whenever I went past though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcatraz Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Went to Lovebullets after Justice for a bit of a boogie with Artwork Was thinking it was pretty quiet for a guy who I've seen pack a tent many a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
