This could be that their just now too old to be bothered. I was seated at the Wembley show but did have a special pass that gave me free range over the stadium and I went down to the crowd on the field for a few songs and it was great, everyone just let you right in, no one tried to grab my boobs and I didn't come out covered in someone else's sweat. It was also a fair bit cooler weather wise so that may have contributed to it. Blur fans, in the heat, drowning in beer - not a good combination. That being said I'd go back to Hyde Park anyday, just maybe stand to the side a bit more next time :)


This actually happened at Hyde Park? 8O If so, that's fucking terrible...

Yeah I don't think there were many girls near the front that didn't leave without at least one boob grab. If they were grabbing mine and I'm old and have the Beth Ditto figure then I'm sure the younger cuter girls were just being like rubbed up on every second. Scary! It wasn't like a constant thing though just some drunks in the crowd and the second day my friend just kept pushing away the guys that were trying it so that helped make it more enjoyable :)
Wondering why since 1974

Looks like I came out lucky then 8O no-one tried to grab my boobs. They would have received a punch in the nose if they had, though.
