Try not to pre judge who your audience are (not you squirrel). If you do resubmit, don't just add a 35+ bracket, that's insulting!

taylor_247 Posted July 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Apologies, I have no doubt people over 35 can enjoy festivals as well, this was a decision purely for analytical purposes and what the past research suggested was required.

That’s probably true but this is a research project and it’s not unusual for research to focus on a specific age range. I’ve never said that over 35’s don’t attend music festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose a follow up research project could look into how those attending festivals before technology had such a large influence and how this has changed festival experience.

Kind of makes any conclusions or opinion you draw to be flawed or plain wrong? Your dissertation is to determine the future of festivals, tech and new experiences.... not how do under 35's feel about festivals and tech Defo getting a 3rd if your lucky.

It’s more that you’re sort of ignoring the bridge generation per say. The ones that progressed with the technology itself. I mean thats where I lie directly in. I was a guinea pig for innovation pretty much, from when the internet exploded in the early 90’s til now. How the crude forms of music discovery led us to these events and then how those events got to where they are now. Pretty much the main thing would be mobile phones getting in the way, thats likely the answer most of the older lot will give. I have always had great interest into whats next with the festival experience and how technology is used. Luckily having Coachella just a 2 hour drive away gives me the chance to see a great deal of that because they embrace that sort of thing. Anyway, carry on.

Tin cans? Luxury! When we wanted to communicate someone would give me the message and I'd have to run across the site looking for the other guy. I'd do that 26 hours a day with no shoes on and only half a discarded growler to keep me going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
