  1. Whilst I’d never hate on Glastonbury and it’s one of the few festivals that is more than just its music, there’s always plenty to do and see that poster massively eases the pain of not having tickets. For me it’s utterly Meh🤷‍♂️ if it’s a good poster for others then I’m happy for you.
  2. Can anyone help with getting tickets for Glastonbury in re sale in April 

  3. All the festivals have strict rules and every year at various festivals you see stuff that blatantly breaks all the rules, from vans with mattresses in the back to cars with a tipi next to them🤷‍♂️ I wouldn’t sweat it.
  4. Saw The Darkness last weekend, they were pretty damn good.
  5. Mark Knopfler would be fantastic in the legend slot, but not this year, I didn’t get tickets.😁😁
  6. Saw The Darkness last weekend and Justin mentioned peoples phones a few times, even at one point demanding people put them away and leading the crowd in a chant of ‘put your f**king phones away’. All lighthearted but he’s right, put your phones away.
  7. Just chat to the marshal parking you, they will normally ask you if you have an awning and which side if it’s not obvious. We will have to butter up the Marshall as we have a 270* awing which is on the side and rear of our vehicle, our door is on the rear as well so I want to make sure the rear is facing the fire lane so we don’t have someone else right up our arse( oo er missus)
  8. Gender of headliners is still just as irrelevant as it has always been, only matters to tokenist box tickers
  9. My wife and I decided not to bother on t day and go on holiday instead, just didn’t feel it, a hangover from waiting 2 1/2 years for the 2020 erm 2021 no 2022 festival. apart from Reg there’s little in the lineup to make us regret our decision, especially with what we are doing instead. just need a break from the pressure and hassle of the whole thing, especially t day. will probably try for next year. I would never and could never not go having secured tickets though, far too hard fought for to do that.
  10. Booked a holiday that clashes with Glastonbury, I may regret doing so but having waited 2 1/2 years for this years festival I’m not that fussed about going next year, just finding it hard to get enthusiastic about it already. Been to 3 of the last 4 so it’s time to do something else.
  11. Perfectly reasonable? On what planet?
  12. Inflation, normal running costs, recouping costs from 2 cancelled festivals. Protecting the money they give to charities.
  13. We aren’t going next year, already booked something else for next year that clashes with Glastonbury but if not for that we would still try for tickets. It’s a big jump over 2019 prices but probably about where it would be with normal yearly increases plus a bit, I guess, for extra costs like cancellation insurance. the only way tickets will ever not go up is if the festival gives less to the various charities, which is never going to happen and nor should it. At least the increases aren’t there to protect their own profits.
  14. Saw Richard Bacon on Sunday, sat on the floor with I assume his kids having some food and talking very loudly on the phone to someone called Robbie who was pitching a tv show to him, after his ‘old and white’ comments about Glastonbury I did consider asking what other completely irrelevant comments he had to make about Latitude, but thought better of it. stood next to a guy in the Crèche for the Manics who was the absolute spit of Eric Stoltz, the guy who was Marty Mcfly before Michael J Fox, but can’t for the life of me think why he would be there so I’m assuming it wasn’t actually him. if there was a thread for spotting people who looked incredibly like a famous person but almost definitely weren’t them I’d have hundreds.
