I’d say John is Kevin McAleers inspiration.

I said I'd ring Joe, but I got you.

Way to make poor Katie feel special.

What's de story here ?

It rained and flooded ?? I want me money back etc

ebbsy

Last time I looked out the window it was pissing rain.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand

In fairness… the level of rainfall was unprecedented, organisers couldn’t have foreseen it

squonk

Maybe you’re just too old for outdoor festivals, or rather too attached to your own comforts John?

touts

56 year old goes to a festival in a tent and shocked, shocked I tell you, at the unsanitary conditions and the rain.

Maybe there is a reason he was the oldest person by 30 years.

Exactly.

They closed it to day tickets on Saturday for that reason.

Where is his dedicated walkway to the lux camping area?!? Its a disgrace Katie/Joe!

squonk

Yup. It poured. That’s always the danger with outdoor events here. It happens.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand

Any gobshite that spends €500-€800 on a tent for that gig doesn’t deserve sympathy

Dan Jaman

550? Is that euros and not escudos?

Fer fek's sake - what a rip.

zell12

Joe, Joe

squonk

€500 on a tent? Must have been a Buckingham palace tent!

furiousox

John, you are a deeply boring man.

John is 56 years old, and only now realizes what happens when very heavy rain mixes with soil with foot fall walking over it , god bless him

I doubt he was the oldest by a long shot.

It's an oldies festival with old acts, but yeah he is a clown.

There must be a big window in that O Mearas camping shop cos they saw him coming anyway

You take your chances on these festivals. If it rains, either get stuck in and enjoy yourself it just cut your losses and go home.

ebbsy

Good afternoon to you John you prat.

Dan Jaman

Pah, he should have been at Stonehenge Festivals in the late 70s / early 80s. You shyt in a post-digger hole in front of everybody passing. Nobody gave a bit of notice, because everybody knew it would be their turn sooner or later.

zell12

Oh no, Sharon, just hang up, like now

gmisk

You can't win with people like this...the place was a mess due to weather...and he is giving out about his mates who couldn't get in with day tickets?! Which would have made it far far worse.

TinyMuffin

The forever whinging festable.

Frank Grimes

Some lineup, a bargain for what he spent.

Saturday: Andy Bell of Erasure, Jason Donovan, Billy Ocean, Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet, and Cry Before Dawn.

Sunday: Bananarama, Soul II Soul, Neville Staple from the Specials, and ABC. Plus, there’s a second stage devoted to tribute acts, including Abbaesque, The Bootleg Police and David Bowie covers group Rebel Rebel.

Da PR and de HR could not fix de Weather
