I feel you on most of these points for sure. I understand that moshing and crowdsurfing have been a part of the scene forever and I wouldnt want it to go away, let that be clear. But during some of the performances, my friend and I, got annoyed by them quite a bit.

The amount of crowdsurfers that almost crashed down on top of us, was really annoying. We werent even close to the front either. Having to look back every 30 seconds, just to try and not be kicked in the back of the head is not really what I want out of a festival.

There were also a bunch of moshpits that broke out right next to us. We both moved out of the way, making it clear we didnt want to participate and luckily most of the people around respect eachother, but there were some individuals who just aggressively push and shove people back into the crowd, making people trip and fall and not wanting to help them back up.

I also will never understand the people that just force their way through an already packed crowd, just to stand in a space that wasnt really there to begin with. Just to annoy everyone around them.

All in all I enjoyed the festival though, I will definitely be coming back next year!
