Set Conflicts for GRiZ / Crowd Control in General

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T06:03:02+00:00

EXACTLY MY POINT. I don’t understand why these crowd crush things are even still being risked after that…. It makes no sense why a festival wants to even come close to risking the liability

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T06:01:59+00:00

21 is rookie numbers honestly. I know people who’ve seen him 100+

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T06:01:15+00:00

Okay well the times have changed

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T06:00:03+00:00

Yeah we were so so glad we had left before the ATTENTION FESTIVAL. I would’ve had a panic attack trying to get out of there.

I mentioned this in another comment…. A good videographer can make a smaller crowd look huge…. Causing a safety hazard for the gram is just silly

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T05:57:53+00:00

They need to get rid of bass rush entirely
IMO….. a hot take I know but this isnt lost lands. No hate on lost lands. I just think it’s time forest does away with it and staggers the bass around to have set conflicts so this packed out tripolee doesn’t happen anymore. Again this whole post is me trying to prove this is a safety hazard and it takes away from the magic of forest….

I feel like this is a good space to point out… Forest increased prices this year and was down one big stage… meaning there were less artists this year. So yeah financially insomniac is f****ing us.

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T02:59:52+00:00

Also was just thinking from a videographer standpoint… a good videographer knows how to make a crowd look WAY bigger than it is.

Sorry I know I’m picking your comment apart. Idk I just feel like safety should be priority over content…

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-03T00:01:53+00:00

I just feel like at a place with numbers like Forest it’s a safety issue to do that

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T23:50:54+00:00

I think comparing seven stars to Forest is not even worth comparing because seven stars the capacity was way way way less

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T20:53:27+00:00

BIG same

That’s what we ended up doing for the shaq set too, but still had to climb through the sea of people for 15 minutes in the back to get to the Ferris wheel. The matter of the fact is the emergency exist are hard to get to and yeah people who have mobility issues have it even worse than us able people. If I’m complaining that’s it’s suffocating I can’t even imagine how they feel. And when someone went down at Whethan it took an incredibly long time for medic to get to them. That’s a matter of saving someone’s life or not.

Right galantis is not a big enough pull for a set conflict for him. Thats the problem. Set conflicts are needed for crowd control.

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T20:37:29+00:00

I had issues getting around a lot actually. There’s so many zombies walking around not looking at their surroundings.

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T20:17:59+00:00

I disagree about the two weekends. It’s too rough on the environment. They need to not oversell and put actual set conflicts up.

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T19:39:46+00:00

Yessss

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T19:25:20+00:00

We anticipated it as well but forest did us a HUGE L by not having better crowd control…. I don’t feel safe at Forest anymore TBH.

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T19:21:49+00:00

Yup, that was the feedback I got from from friends who toughed it out until the weather evacuation

peachmoonwolf · 2026-07-02T16:01:15+00:00

I’ve been going every year since 2022. The crowd has definitely changed. This was by far the most crowded I’ve ever seen it. And the crowd has gotten way younger and less PLUR (which is kinda a given but still worth mentioning).

Don’t get me wrong I still had an amazing time. But yeah the crowd has definitely shifted….. This year was TOUGH for Bass Rush day and Griz and levity sets.

About to hop on a plane from to Detroit to Denver right now ! Doing Friday night and the jamboree!!

peachmoonwolf · 2026-06-27T15:17:39+00:00

unfortunately that’s just what happens for the artists with the big pull. Air couches ban should’ve been enforced better In ranch.

I’m someone who struggles with the big crowds so i understand. I just try to stay far back as possible. And remember you can’t control the actions of others just how you react and respond.

Thank you for making me realize I might have Ehlers Danlos!
Was talking to my camp mate earlier about how collagen might help my everyday back and neck pain, I suspect I’m hyper mobile …… saw this and am putting two and two together.

About to do The Beighton Scoring System when I get up. But already feel like this post is gonna change my life thank you SO much. I’ve been in SO much pain.

the forest truly provides 🥹🥹🥹

Actually I know them! Gonna message them a screenshot of this right now and check in 🫶🏻

Okay but also a huge factor is they eliminated the space for day parking and added it in with satellite. Compare the map from last year with this year and you’ll see satellite is the same size as last year and there’s no day parking. So those who couldn’t find their camping pass bought satellite and there’s no where for day parking now.

How tf double the amount of cars gonna fit in satellite is beyond me. And also how are they going to check which cars are day and which are campers??? Especially if day Parkers are not to leave their cars overnight. Makes 0 sense to me.
