I didn't see any, just read about one. Global Gathering - Huge Brawl, must have been about 10 people involved. SW4 a few years ago - guys squaring off, another few boxing each other, seen girls pulling hair. I left after an hour. That festival is full of em. Horrible place!

I saw one at Moondance and also at Bass Nation last year.At the Found festival in Bethnal Green the bouncers were chasing a man and they all crashed into me in one of the tents,luckily I managed to stay standing and carry on dancing. When I was about 11 I used to stand with my Dad with the away fans at Upton Park every home game (this was because we got in free and the only place they allowed us to stand)This was for about five years from 1976 onwards at the height of football violence in the grounds (West Ham was one of the worse) so I became immune to violence.

Actually yeah, I have seen security piling in, but not fights between punters. Sounds like I've been lucky, fingers crossed Moondance will be OK as we're thinking of going to that.

The only fight I ever saw at a festival was at the peace loving Glastonbury I just learnt how to give myself a signature - 27/08/09 - bear (member for just over 2 years) I just learnt that F5 refreshes a page - 03/03/10 - bear (alive for over 30 years) I just learnt there is an ignore button - 11/01/11 - bear (still learning) I just learnt that I can have 1 more than 3 lines in my sig and there is no word limit - 20/06/12 - bear (on a roll) Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 14-06-2017 13:47 PM PAG Registered: Apr 2004 Posts: 176 - Threads: 83 Location: London Quote: Matt wrote on 14-06-2017 01:20 PM Actually yeah, I have seen security piling in, but not fights between punters. Sounds like I've been lucky, fingers crossed Moondance will be OK as we're thinking of going to that. Moondance should be good,similar to Tranzmission (which I went to last week - no fights there) but without Darren Styles and hardcore. Also in August this year,I was surprised they took the gamble with this date as MOS tried to hold a festival last year on the same date,same place and had to cancel due to lack of ticket sales.I also go to 51st state the day before which is one of the few festivals that cater for a black crowd (though a slightly older one).I am surprised no promoter has wished to try a Bashment/Afrobeat/SOCA,R&B festival,I am sure they would sell out but maybe they cant get a licence from the police.
