Sounds right up my street in the 90’s

This was my 22nd festival and I've been going since the 90's. Unless you spend your time watching Shania Twain and Coldplay at the main stage (each to their own) then I feel like your experience on the festival was probably vastly different to the majority. Drugs have a very real presence at the festival every year. I had some interesting conversations with a lot of the guys organising Silver Hayes, West Holts and Arcadia and I'm always interested in hearing their thoughts about the average punters mindset. Most seemed to think that around 50-70% of the punters of drug taking age were likely to be partaking in some kind of illegal activity during the weekend. 

Agreed.. if you would of see the sights that I saw working the night shift on the pedestrian hates.. 🤣

..and what do you know about anyone on this forum?

I've never seen anything like it - I ME MINE by George Harrison springs to mind 😎 !

20 pages later... Truer words were never spoken😁

I’d say this was 100% in the years I went, it was an open air drug market in 96, 98 and 99 when I went, even in 2003 once they put the fence up. Literally all you’d hear being shouted day and night was “pills, acid, mushrooms” by dealers. 

Has anyone worked out who this Plebs real uaa name is

This was what you said in your very first post here... 
'They’re £15 with a tube on not great paper and some aren’t printed very well' 

Then in this post you said... 
'Bigger, better quality paper and more complicated printing. More colours, split fountains etc' 

Which one is it? 

In their defence, they’ve been jerking/frigging himself/herself off so vigorously at the mere thought it could be by Banksy (only stopping to post on UAA) that they have gone slightly blind.

If we’re talking fake accounts the Lroy profile is using a bot to scramble his language.
Wonder how many accounts he hiding to bother with that 🤷

Damn.... Looks like a Royal Mail ref was created but the item has not been sent/handed over to Royal Mail. 

That's a pretty shitty thing to do, I'd rather they just backed out and relisted the poster for the sake of £100. 

I am also pretty certain this seller is on this Forum but I'll just leave that here.

I'm going back under my rock... Peace out ✌🏻 

this is jules leotard winding everyone up, isn't it

Ok, let's take a rest from all the abuse and insults just for a moment and look at the actual art.

Reasons why the posters are almost definitely NOT by Banksy...

1. They are a South American company promoting South American artists.

2. They are printed in garish day-glo colours. Does B ever do this?

3. There are different colourways of the same image. Does B ever do this?

4. Banksy's work is very political and often features humour. I'm not sure I see either of these things in these posters.

5. Banksy make his message very obvious, sometimes taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Is there a message to these posters? If so it is very subtle. Banksy does not do 'subtle'.

6. One of the images is a copy of a photograph. Does B ever produce artworks from making a print out of a photograph?

7. If these prints are by Banksy then why did he only do 2 of the 4 available? Surely he would do all 4 ... or none at all.

8. The fact that Banksy may have curated Terminal 1 does not mean he had anything to do with the posters (see 7 above).

9. The fact that there was a Banksy inflatable at the festival does not mean he also produced some posters as well.

10. Banksy always acknowledges when he produces something, even postcards and t-shirts. If these posters really are by him why hasn't he acknowledged as such?


Have I missed anything?

What does the number of people watching tell you?
Flippers testing the waters, waiting to see if anyone is crazy enough to pay that price.
