Sad to reply to my own post but I just saw a funny comment online that said no way in the space of three months are we going from six people in a garden to six people in a two man tent doing ket they bought from stranger!
I think the Reading and Leeds promoter guy seems delusional. There's no way an event with 200000 attendees per day is taking place in July. It's madness to have that be the first festival since the pandemic started when in reality we won't have quite gotten past the hump yet. I can't even imagine how sloppy everyone would be if it's their first party in over a year. The inside word is a lot of festivals will still end up being cancelled because they can't get insured. Moreover the harsh reality for most performers is very few are going to be able to afford to travel with their entire crew and run the risk of having to cancel two weeks worth of gigs and pay to have to quarantine everyone in a hotel in the event someone in their party gets covid.
