First, bathe in sunscreen if you’re queueing outside—even London’s grey skies can betray you. Second, know your limit. The pit is joyful but intense; stand near the back or the sides if you need breathing room. Third, turn off your phone for the last three songs. Trust me. Your memory will be sharper than any blurry video.
Bring a portable charger but use it sparingly. The best moments happen when you’re not documenting them—that shared glance with a stranger during "Cancer," or the way the crowd sways like a single organism. That is the real souvenir.
