This is hardly surprising. These scum should be locked up for life and ALL music festivals banned

I hate it when they do such things. I wonder why ... I'm going to festivals for four years now, and I see it happen every time(=trashfight on the campsite, ...)
,exept for this year, cos of the bad weather and all the mud.
Why? Why? Why?

can I just say that I was there and all this is total bullshit
There were a few hundred people causing trouble, but there were like 80,000 if not more people there.
All I saw were toilets on fire and there were a few people running around. The fires before the Foo Fighters had been there all night and were not that big, just old burnt beer cups.
Leeds was nowhere near as bad as Reading 2000 and nobody said a thing about that !!
I had a great time and Aphex Twin KICKED FUKING ASS !!

From NME:
"Andy Teacher told NME.COM:'There were 40ft flames - it was twice as high as the trees on site. It was like the oil fields burning in Kuwait.' "
Typical bullshit from the NME

Fucking festivals need to be banned. Everywhere. Young people should not have an idea that having fun as a part of inebriated/ headfukked uncontrolable mass is a good thing.

pogo is right. there was a minority of rioters. where i was (in the red campsite) all the toliet blocks were burnt, but the flames (though very large) were contained by the fence. also people threw bins of the bridge and broke a few lighting poles and stuff.
if you didnt want to get mixed up in it you could quite easily not do.
and aphex fucking rocked.

Tits - he played with The Dillinger Escape Plan. Their EP was released on Monday (hardcore slsk users on this board have had it for months mind). It was unannounced but widely known.
I think it's the best thing he's done in over seven years, if you haven't heard it....
oh and like I said before, this shit will continue year after year. You get 80,000 people together, SOMEONE is gonna think setting the bogs alight is a good idea.

there..I figured out who the culprits were..
off their face chemical engineering students, doing spontaneous and random field tests of theory learnt in class...
"One toilet block was burnt to the ground completely with others set alight. Skips were also set alight and power cables pulled down. "
the explosive potential and capabilities of methane anyone???

and there is a precendece to these rampaging chemical engineering students, annual methane worship rituals..here...
The violence echoes last year's events when toilet blocks were burnt and police attacked, which put this year's festival in serious jeopardy
