I love Intimacy and prefer it to Weekend. Good bonus tracks too. Their Other stage headline set during that era looked great. For me Weekend starts strong but fizzles out a bit. 7.18 is my favourite Bloc Party song though. Got tickets to Crystal Palace so would prob prefer a mixed set at Glasto, but not too fussed either way.

Got straight in for Thursday tickets from my Dublin hotel room at 5.59. Bring on the guinness!

Solid enough lineup, plenty to see if I manage to get a ticket including headliners each night, but not much wow factor there. Felt a lot more gutted seeing last year’s lineup while being ticketless. Disappointing not to see Pulp and thought Placebo might finally get the nod given their tour dates. Idles vs Fontaines is a strange clash. On Coldplay - they always put on an incredible show and I think its great that the festival have a massive act that loves playing there while swerving most, if not all, other festivals.

Yeah - got the last 2 blocks in my local co-op on deadline day, but was a bit hesitant to buy initially as was expecting a big Glastonbury sticker on the front. Hopefully they've been entered.

Anyway, finally over ticket day failure so can embrace this thread again. Off to hunt for some cheese before the deadline.

I've been using the pay as you go sim in my main phone ever since! Still not won anything through the app, mind. Just got a new phone but Vodafone wouldn't let me pass their credit checks for some reason. Reluctantly had to go back to Three.

If there are cheaters exploiting the system then the system isn't as good as it can be? Surely they should be called out on this and work to ensure it doesn't happen again? I don't mind losing out to high demand, as I did last year. But I find it difficult putting so much effort into sales, resales, buying sim cards, chocolate bars etc etc and then losing out to cheats block buying tickets, which is what has happened here

That's all true but unfortunately the easier (and less costly?) option is to just brush it under the carpet.

I'm surprised how many on here are ok with this and seemingly accepting of it. This is a big issue and clearly will have allowed large groups to block buy tickets for entire spreadsheet groups. There were links and instructions going round on whatsapp, discord, reddit etc. No that doesn't mean we would otherwise have been guaranteed a ticket, but I do find it odd that I don't know a single person irl, across a number of groups, that got beyond a holding page this year. If the festival truly believes in fairness (as stated 2 weeks ago when they postponed the sale), all tickets bought on the spare server should be traced and cancelled. But they won't because they just want the tickets sold as fast as possible and See don't want the negative fallout.

A friend just told me someone they know got in via a link posted online that took them straight to the booking page, and got 6 lots of 6 tickets. Is this related to the IP address exploit or a separate issue? Either way I'm pretty pissed about all this. I feel like I've been cheated out of a ticket.

Didn't get close to a booking page, again. Gutted. That's now 6 failed sales in a row, despite joining a ticket group for the last 4. The IP exploit today obviously not helping matters.

In the interests of fairness, they should cancel all today's tickets and redo the sale in 2 weeks time. (Not bitter, honest!)

Good luck everyone!

And something that is on this (sorry - low res but taken from the official site). Personally I just use the 'click to stop refreshing' function on auto-refresh plus

Keeping a close eye on my inbox but don't want to use up all my ticket luck too soon this week
