Yeah it’s a shame that they got so much praise for how heavy their first album sounded and then basically abandoned it for everything after. Fair enough not wanting to be a one trick pony, but nothing since has hit the same. There’s a reason why people continue to lose their minds as soon as Genesis starts.

An absolutely banging backing band at that and no evidence of lip syncing from where I stood. Absolute carnage crowd wise of course. Reckon half the tent were there for Sugababes before the previous act (???) had finished. Eventually became Can't f**king Move At All rammed. They let too many people in/there's a massive back door in somewhere these days. Like others have mentioned I can see a wet year causing proper issues. We were just outside the tent and had arrived quite early. As soon as the former act finished it was like a tidal wave of coked up w*nkers just rolled in. Stewards tried to close the field but were ignored, people just pushed them out of the way. When they eventually did manage to restrict access, they started climbing over fences, stalls etc. to get in. It was complete carnage. By the time they were 2-3 songs in it turned really ugly. Saw 2 fights break out due to young idiots trying to push forwards with nowhere to go. We bailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the fact they are openly taking cocaine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tidal wave of coked up w*nkers rolled in and they were all openly taking cocaine? With wide pupils? Some things about your tale don't make much sense to me. I'd suspect some of this behaviour is due to good old fashioned alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things about your tale don't make much sense to me. I'd suspect some of this behaviour is due to good old fashioned alcohol. I don't like to stereotype, but there were lots of youngish lads around the site last year who always seemed to be in tribes, shirtless, carrying a bumbag over their shoulder, who were openly taking loads of coke and acting like inconsiderate arseholes. The Avalon "invasion" contained a high percentage of these people. They certainly were the ones causing the trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toohottoocold Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 (edited) Interesting how the coke and ket bum bag lads born in 2001 all flocked to Sugababes at Avalon instead of I dunno...jump up DNB in the Common. They'll be at the acoustic tent soon enough! Edited May 13 by toohottoocold 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowd at TLC is the worst I've ever been in at Glastonbury and was rightfully called out for being unsafe, just look back at the threads on here. I can only assume you found a strange oasis, or were really close and benefitted from people being unable to filter in I managed to get on the second front row for TLC after looking unsuccessfully my mate. Always room down the front. I do appreciate that most of the field was rammed though and it will probably be the same for Sugababes. I'll be getting to West Holts early for that one Edited May 13 by Helsbels Extra info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
