Obviously the band didn't read those before signing/confirming.  :1f632:

Let's hope at the next one these problems will be sorted!  :cool

Eight reviews added (http://curefans.com/index.php?topic=8878.0) to the first post of this topic, but you need to understand Spanish or of course, you can use Google Translate :) Apparently the festival (finally!) didn't have problems like in the last three editions, but this is probably due the lower attendance compared to previous years (45,000 people this year for a venue with a capacity of 75,000)
