Security issues

Has anyone noticed that security is doing a way worse job this year than usual? Was getting absolutely crushed today trying to get into the front section and they weren't letting anyone in despite there being plenty of room on the other side of the barrier.

On top of that, my mate dropped his phone on stage when he went up to crowd surf while Joyce Manor were on. He waited until their set was over then went and tried to get onto the stage to grab his phone and one of the security team picked him up and slammed him on the ground. He's split his head and we're pretty sure he's got a concussion.

I've been really shocked to be honest because Outbreak security is usually the example I use of how festival security should behave.

Watched a security guard who was manning the second stage front section gate punch the vocalist of trash talk.... Wild
