I really enjoyed your post! I love music, and I'm big on philosophy and analyzing the words in a song, so I could totally identify with what you wrote here. I love going to music festivals for many reasons, but one of them is that for the most part the "us and them" mentality doesn't exist. Everyone is always just looking out for everyone else and trying to help each other out whenever we can.
Right on, man! Woodstock 1969 was declared a disaster area, yet there was not one reported act of violence. What's so tough? The idea is simple: don't hurt people or do things that will cause people to get hurt. You would think that after the first battle thousands of years ago, the leaders of the tribes would have said "fuscrew this" and figured out a better way!
Your're just right :) I've been to so many different festivals (rock, metal, EDM, rap,..) and in 7 years of concerts and festivals there only was one time I met unkind guys. Too bad it's not like that all the time...
