Skrufff: Looking at the site plan, it seems VERY difficult to get from the main arena to Millennium Mills (because of the water): how can you prevent bottle necks? Awful crowding?
Bloc (Alex): “There will be horses transporting people between the two points, that have been specially trained to trot on their hind legs only, thus only taking up 1/2 the space on the ground.”
so according to the met it wasn't oversold, just poorly planned. people sheltering from the rain caused pinch points -

Oh dear. “Well we used to cater for 6,000 experiences at once and now we’re providing 15,000 – this to me looks like a manifest improvement, thought I suppose it does depend on your experience of experiences.”
the mind boggles - but yes, no rain when the trouble started, there was definitely an issue with the ticket scanner (ours weren't scanned, think we were some of the last ppl let in) and they were shutting the whole thing down from the moment we got in pretty much (10pm-ish after 2hrs queuing...the stubnitz was already shut which is a shame cos it looked banging)
very odd. it was definitely overcrowded and it felt really claustrophobic from the start. i was already saying 'it's really bad here' way before they officially shut it all down.
shackleton was pretty banging, but had to break in to the fucking RA tent to see him.
something went really wrong.
London is a money grabbing shambles.
But it has good points.
dumb question: why would they make people wait outside of an empty tent? what was the point of that?
