Festival Failure

Festival Republic has blamed the company running its bars for the huge queues that saw fans miss headline sets over the weekend. People complained it took two hours to get a drink at the Liam Gallagher and Queens Of The Stone Age gigs in London's Finsbury Park. Festival Republic says the queues were because not enough staff turned up. That explanation hasn't gone down well, with organisers being accused of "passing the buck". The gigs took place over one of the hottest weekends of the year - but getting your hands on a drink was not easy. On Sunday evening, after being hit by so many complaints, organiser Festival Republic put out a statement, which blamed the company running the bars.
