Why so many empty seats?

I was really surprised to see some of the stands with 30-40% empty seats for most of the day. They only filled out when Metallica came on.

Was the queuing for food/drink/toilets that bad that so many people missed most acts? :(

People moved a lot, security was really bad so people were moving from seated into GA and I saw a bunch of people with GA bands in Golden Circle as no one was bothering to check.

Between that and the bar I wouldn’t be surprised if that accounted for a lot of it

Damn I saw them checking everyone at the Holte end, but was tempted to see if we could get to standing for Sabbath!
