didinowanttohearthat Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Why do people take such issue with flags? At the distance it will impact you then you are barely seeing whoever is on stage anyway. Also I think it adds to the atmosphere and looks good- wouldn't look like Glasto without them imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfAnIdiot Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Flags at stages are out of order. Pure selfish, dick-ish 'look at me' behaviour spoiling the enjoyment of others. Think, how many flags do you see at stages that are not televised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Pee Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Is that second picture of the Pyramid stage the legendary David Koresh and the Branch Davidian’s set circa 1992 / 93? looks a hoot.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfool01 Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 This thread reminds me of when I was trying to meet @vintagelaureate at the Chems when I had a few issues distinguishing between a Chilean Flag and a Cuban Flag ... sufice to say I went to the wrong one and we never did meet ... bloody flags !! im sure im not the first to get confused about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 I think we reached peak flag in about 2014, and the last two fests have had a marked decline to the point where there are now only a few knocking around most of the time and they do add a bit of character. They used to really aggravate me, especially a lot of the really obnoxious, racist undertones and outright sexist anti-Kanye flags that all the edgelords seemed to bring in 2015, but these days I find it useful to use Men With Ven as a landmark when it's the only one around.

Stokesy10 Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) "TAKE ALL YOUR SHIT HOME AND DON'T LITTER YOU FUCKING CRETINS" I need something snappier though surely, for a flag.

bullie Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 i can see both sides of the flag issue (when the wind blows)... ...no, seriously, the only way i found my team in the Chemmies with three pints in hand was cos they happened to be standing under the fat pig flag - i left to get my round in (showing my age) and there was practically no-one there but when i got back it was like Wembley 1966 cup final . Got to say, nearly everyone in the crowd was amazing and helped me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
