A man has caused quite a stir on social media this week after claiming that people of a certain age ‘ruin the vibe’ when the attend festivals.
In a Tweet that’s now been shared thousands of time, Daniel claimed that anyone over the age of 35 at a music festival was ‘weirding everyone out’.
Naturally, a lot of people in that age bracket have responded with outrage, flooding the thread with pictures of themselves enjoying live music events.
As they should.
people over the age of 35 (and that’s pushing it) attending music festivals don’t realise they’re ruining the vibe and weirding everyone out. you might think you’re living your best life but you’re actually living your most embarrassing life. try a real ale festival instead.
The original post claimed: “people over the age of 35 (and that’s pushing it) attending music festivals don’t realise they’re ruining the vibe and weirding everyone out.

Someone pointed out that the average performer age at some of the biggest festivals in the world tends to be over 35.
That includes Parklife in our own city this weekend, where the headliners include 50 Cent (46 years old), Chase & Status (40 and 41 respectively), Eric Prydz (45) and Jessie Ware (37).
Not to mention Glastonbury, which will be headlined by music royalty like Paul McCartney, Diana Ross and Noel Gallagher – all of whom are well past their 35th birthdays.
One person Tweeted: “@glastonbury will you please tell the pyramid stage they’re weirding everyone out.”

The original poster – who has now changed his profile picture to the words ‘chill out’ – said: “Can’t respond to everyone, but please stop sending me photos of yourself at festivals, you look ridiculous. and that’s coming from me and my marker pen hair. at least I know i look stupid.”
He also said that he ‘wouldn’t show up to music festivals’ personally, because: “I’m in my 40s so it would be ridiculous. i tend to my allotment, read books and walk the dog. let the kids have their fun. my dad wasn’t at the same gigs as me and i won’t be at the same ones as my kids. it’s perfectly normal.”

The first trailer for a new Netflix show starring Michelle Keegan and Joanna Lumley has now been released.
In case you hadn’t heard, the highly-anticipated new crime drama show, which is titled Fool Me Once, is an adaptation of Harlan Coben’s popular novel, and is set to air on the streaming service as soon as 2024 arrives.
But now, the release of the first trailer has proved it looks brilliantly binge-worthy.
How can a dead man appear on a secret camera?

The eight-part series follows Manchester-born actress Michelle Keegan’s character, Maya Starn, who is a former special ops pilot struggling with the tragic murder of her husband, Joe, who is played by Richard Armitage.
Detective Sergeant Sami Kierce, who is portrayed by Adeel Akhtar, conducts the investigation into Joe’s death while wrestling with his own hidden truths.
Things start to get interesting though, when she observes via the nanny cam her supposedly deceased husband playing with their baby daughter in her own home.
Meanwhile, Maya’s niece and nephew embark on the journey to seek answers about their own mother’s murder which took place months ago.
But one question remains – could the two mysteries be related?
