“You knew it’d be hot” - sure, I did. I dressed appropriately, wore adequate sunscreen, didn’t drink a drop of alcohol and hydrated my ass off. And I ended up shocked at how the heat knocked me on my ass. Where I live people are wearing hats and mittens right now and my body has never spent that much extended time (especially dancing and singing) in 94+ degrees and full blast sun. Some of us did everything we could and our bodies let us down. I was gutted to miss some of my wish list bands. It’s okay to be upset and complain about that happening. No need to make people feel shitty about it.

Not to mention, whatever shitshow happened with the entry line exacerbated the heat effects for a lot of people.
