No hair shows you care.
That was the queue to get out when Babyshambles came on. If you look you'll see the stage is behind them and they're applauding the guy who's about to open the gates

Looks Good.
well, the security can't have been too "good" - Klaus Barbie appears to have got in (very right in photo)

where do all these people complaining about £3 for a drink actually go drinking? the local park with the liddel's 'offer of the weel' 6-pack. £3 is about what a pint has cost in a pub for years.
It was barely over half a pint, and the 'beer' was shit.

so let me get this straight - the idea of this thing was to strike a blow against racism - but lots didn't go because it was raining and those that did go didn't like it because there was no good beer and you couldn't take your own beer in.
Don't be a plank. Does it make us any less opposed to racism, any less in favour of the event's purpose/ideal, because we objected to Reading 'Festival' style ultra zealous searching/security whose purpose was to protect Carling Monopolism involving £3= for a tiny bottle being forced on us?
I'd say that was an objection to the worst kind of rip off, myself ....
This not being able to take your beer into a free festival in a London park is starting to freak me out a little in it's idiocy and control freakery
Word and that
Not if you pick the right festivals ...
First free event I've been to (and I've been to lots in my time
) where it's been like that .....chico enrico

i really can't understand the attraction of festivals , just like i can't undertstand the attraction of watching dvds of big fat german women in latex and gas masks being fisted by dwarves wearing gimp masks steel ball-gags, but i suppose everyone is into different stuff and who am i to judge?

I know what you mean. I've been to loads in festivals in the past, but just can't be bothered any more. I tend to think if you're really into seeing bands playing, festivals are the most unlikely place to expect a decent performance. But, I suppose, many people who go to festivals go for social reasons more so than music reasons, which has always seemed a bit odd to me, but there you go.

I first came across it last year at the Tottenham Carnival events in Brucecastle Park
I really hope its not the sign of a new policy
but then fences can always be taken down

No real time to defend my profession but ...!
Are festivals that kinky then? 
They're certainly less of a minority taste.
If you were to find all festivals were like Sunday's, then you'd be absolutely right to hate em IMO. But they're not all like that as you should know well enough ...
To blanketly fail to see the attraction of any 'festivals' is a bit like failing to see the attraction of all music ...
I take your point about poor sound quality at some of them, though. But that's not the case with all of em by any means ...

the beer was shit and overpriced. the food was variable and mostly overpriced.
whatever has been said above the police insisted on no booze being brought in (cans and bottles being their apparent concern)
none of which spoilt the event which was very yoof friendly

Wow you live on the edge man. The 'pigs' must be quaking in their boots with you around. Please tell me you're under 16.
