BlackHole2006 Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Please respect the people running the stalls and stages at the green futures/green fields areas. They are NOT “smelly hippies” to be ridiculed and laughed at. This is their job, their livelihood and their passion. They have been there since the beginning and have been going there longer than you have. More often than not, they have helped Michael Eavis with the earlier Glasto’s. Green Futures is one of my favourite areas for this reason and it really boils my piss thinking that kitty & toby will laugh at the filthy hippies then go over to the park and “vibe” to Jamie XX. Thanks for reading xoxo 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Martini Police Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Yeah, what's the story behind this that made it worthy of the capitalised thread name and rant? Is efests really where you might find these people you speak of too? Jamie xx fans in particular got a bad rep in your eyes? Strange example.

gigpusher Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Can't believe this would even need saying. The Green fields are the heart of the festival and I always love going there an relaxing. I've always found everybody there very friendly and like to think that everyone is treated with the respect they deserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkete Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 There is a kitty member of efests, but alas no toby. Clearly there are accusations that need to be aired in some type of kangaroo court so that we can stroke our chins in judgement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gratefulbread Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Bizarre outburst. I've only been going to the festival since 2002, but have never seen anything like that happen in the green fields. I've barely seen any anti social or unpleasant behaviour at all anywhere on the site, come to think of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gherkin8r Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 The hippies round there are real people? I assumed they were actors employed for me to laugh at, throw rotten veg at and try to avoid smelling at all costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charm Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) I spend most of the festival in green futures and haven’t seen any disrespecting of hippies, sad that you have experienced an incident that upset you but I don't think they care about what people think of them anyway.

T-Mouse Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say this is in response to some of the vitriol thats been directed at Extinction Rebellion on social media this last week. Thankfully I'd say those who post shit like "The great unwashed. Get a job. Climate change is a lie" blah blah blah, will have no interest in Glastonbury. And if they do and are there, there will be 10x as many ready to call them out for the fucking w*nkers they are. I would hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
