Jesus! what is it with people at festivals? honestly is it a prerequisite to gaining a ticket that you must use the four walls of the loo as opposed to just hitting the target?
Glastonbury this year was especially fun, i'd hate to spend time round any of these peoples houses!

this may be in poor taste but i feel its a valid subject to be broached by pearl jam fans of all people!

    Yeah, they're revolting but it's part of the festival atmosphere.

    Having said that, at Leeds Festival this year, I went to the local Tesco in search of a clean toilet. The que was absoutely massive, longer than some of the checkouts :p

    I went to a day festival at Quex Park Kent and saw some 'lads' trying to turn over a portaloo with some poor woman in, nobody did a thing to stop them until me and my very big friend stepped in, i can only imagine how she would've looked if they had succeeded!

    Having been to many festivals over the years I've become pretty good at picking the times to use the toilets! If the festial has seperate arena where all the stages are, wait until the arena opens for the day - the toilets will have been cleaned over night and are nowhere near as bad as the ones in the campsites. Then of course you can go into the nearest towns and find a supermarket, pub or McDonald's and abuse their facilities.

    You are pretty much screwed at Glastonbury because it's in the middle of nowhere and the stages aren't seperate to the campsites. In that circumstance copious amounts of bog-roll to cover the seat and wet wipes are your best bet!

    For total avoidance of the toilets one of my mates consumed nothing but Mars bars and Stella for an entire weekend and made use of the surrounding bushes to piss in!

    I have so many festival stories I swear I could write a book!

    Bonnaroo wasn't too bad inside the grounds. I had "wet" tp instead of walking around with a roll. Wipes are so much better. Oh, and squat only.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Bonnaroo was pretty good. They cleaned them about three times a day and did a pretty thorough job.
    Hello, I love you. Won't you tell me your name?
