I was a volunteer in the campsite at Reading festival in 2008 and 2009 with a friend. It was exactly like this, a destitute wasteland of inexplicable tent abandonment. As part of the clean up, we went around with a wheel barrow collecting unopened cans of beer, each tent seemed to be a treasure trove for us as 18 year olds. It was all fun and games until he found a cooler box in a tent. Opened it up and inside was a singular, well preserved, human turd.
Back in Leeds 2004 (?) Lynx was handing out free deodorant mini-cans to everyone as a promo. Every few minutes throughout the night, was an explosion as someone's can went up in a fire somewhere. Total chaos.
Went to Reading the year before and was not nearly as crazy. Leeds is something else.
