Uhh deal with it. Until they invent a mystical Bag of Holding or Guybrush Threepwood pockets, backpacks will remain a necessary evil.
It sounds like you have a problem more with people who don't know or don't care how much space they are taking up. People without backpacks are guilty of this too. Personally, I am not. Backpack or no.

Touche. Its just worse when its a backpack slamming into you. I usually dont mind a little human contact.

I hate being smacked around by backpacks. Whether its in a pit, or on the bus... fuck off with your backpacks. With that said, I will likely have a (small) one this year. |

I totally pictured you wandering around with mini-pack like it's 1995. I would pay money, pennies even, to see that.

Man, those things held nothing and made you look like you had a fat back. And the only people you see with them nowadays are generally the type who don't need any help in that department.

I still use my backpack from high school. It's totally still covered in peoples names, phone numbers, and band names. Love that fucking thing.

It would match my black leather fanny pack quite well.

I love my back pack, I love having everything and with my back injury the weight pulling back actually helps my posture and makes me feel better (weird I know). But if I'm right up front I take it off and put it between my feet so I don't take up twice the space, and smack everyone behind me with it. I assumed everyone did this.

That's what I do. Generally I end up with a pretty good-sized backpack that two or three people can put their necessary shit for the day into, so that not everyone has to be saddled with carrying luggage around Sasquatch. When I go down into the pit -- which I've done less than half a dozen times in all my years at Sasquatch (Flaming Lips '08, Ween, Pink Martini, Beirut) -- I always take it off and put it on the ground.
That way I can make sure that the drunk dude behind me isn't rifling through my shit when I'm not looking, I don't take up as much space and it frees up my body to dance if the mood should strike.
