I had heard of it yes I wasn't so much meaning of that type of event, more the single site concert type of events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't go, but there was a recent Ariana Grande concert in Manchester that was targeted by a suicide bomber. That was very dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 How could an event not signed off as 'safe' on the Isle of Man affect the UK results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'm not sure what you are after. I've been to lots of festivals but not really had any times I've been in fear. I did Steward at one where the New Age travellers were denied entry and throwing stuff over the fence at us, but they never got passed security.

Declan Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Is this about getting at Tiny Cow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Egglesden Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 1 hour ago, Declan said: Is this about getting at Tiny Cow? No. This isn't a witch hunt. However I was at the Hope & Glory Festival in Liverpool which has started all this off. We have had to contact TESS ourselves to include statements and photos for the inquiry. So Tinycow is included, but this is not solely about them. There has been a lot of people nationally asked exactly the same as I have asked you guys. Though I do know you've had history with Tinycow, my understanding of it is that it wasn't a dangerous or unsafe event like Hope & Glory, but a non profitable event. That isn't what we are looking at. Though if people did feel unsafe, then please let me know the reasons. Again, this is at any event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
