Festival promoter _A_J Maddah has warned the culprit he will do his upmost to discover their identity - in a series of posts on Twitter.com, he writes, "Dear piece of s**t who lit the flare in Bmth pit: Tonight you seriously burned and disfigured a young girl. I hope you f**king get yours. Poor little thing is really hurt. Massive awful burn on her forearm. I am devastated for her. If you see anyone with a lit flare please take their photo and tweet to me so I can hand to police.

"If anyone can correctly identify this son of a b**ch I will shower you with so much tickets, backstage and cash you wont know what to do. If we catch anyone w/ flares you'll not only be evicted/arrested, I'll dedicate every iota (ounce) of energy & money I can muster to ruin your life (sic)."
