As for me, I’ll just opt out of Swedish Music Festivals. They just haven’t been the same since ABBA, anyway...

“Festivals may be the next stepping stone on Sweden’s way to becoming a cashless society. Only 27 percent of retail sales are made in cash, and those numbers would be even lower if online sales were included.”
People often talk of the same happening here in the US, but an unintended consequence of bringing the Thrid World here is that cash is still king. Here in NJ many people work for cash, and pay for everything (including the rent on their illegal apartments) with it. Helps the gibsmedats double-dip, keeping Uncle Sam out of everyone’s business...

“All festival armbands will have chips,” said Niklas Westergren, marketing director at FKP Scorpio, one of the largest organizers of music festivals in Sweden. “Before the festival begins, people can create a profile where they can add their bank details.”
Absolutely nothing could go wrong with this scenario now could it. Load all their bank details on to a chip for their arm bands. Nah, no problem there. Skol!

I blame my Swiss cousins for my liberal indoctrination into ABBA as a little kid in 1977-78.
