There's two VIP levels, Luno Garden and Luno Pit/View. The garden one just gives you access to a VIP bar, seating area and flushing loos. Can't remember that the prices were any cheaper, there was a nice cocktail bar doing things not from a can. The Luno Pit gets you into both the bar area and the front pit on the main stage. View last year was great and very convenient as it wasn't massively full, but its obviously only for the one stage and I don't think worth paying another £100 for. Last year I got a Luno Garden ticket on twickets for about £60, and I won Luno Pit for another day.

About a week before

Last year the bands started about 2pm on Friday, so it probably opens around then

Please Kill Me, the oral history of punk is a great favourite of mine, and the same kind of oral history format of Meet me in the bathroom.

I was in Sticklinch and generally enjoyed it. Used to camp in Dairy/Paines so felt the walk was acceptable, although we were in an Octopad which was literally as far away as possible. I only used the showers twice as the queues were fairly long at peak times, and I never bothered queueing for any breakfast or coffee. Flushing loos were nice (apart from the Friday downtime) and it was generally a good, quiet area. I really enjoyed being 5 mins from the car, and having a tent and beds set up already. We also got out super quick on Monday around 11am, just got stuck in some Worthy View traffic as we went south of the site.

It's on the last tier of tickets so selling reasonably well, although I don't think it will be a total sell out. Last time they played it sold out a month or two beforehand and I had absolute hell trying to get tickets on the days leading up to it. O2 did a deal last year for buy one get one free that might run again, otherwise I wouldn't expect cheap tickets aside from resale if it doesn't sell out.

I’m watching the Gorillaz set now and it’s bloody great

My friend tried all the new M&S cocktails the other day (she was very excited!) and said they are all good. Some a bit sweet, but much better than usual canned cocktails.

Yes! I had voted for the set and was very excited to hear what songs they would pick. Getting to see Better Living and Fun Machine was brilliant, didn’t regret missing Beyoncé for a moment.

Yeah it absolutely reminds me of earlier field days. I used to love those and I'm very excited if Wide Awake continue in this vein. Although I would love it even more if it was in East London!

Bought a bunch of MOTH espresso martini and margarita cans as they are doing 15% off over easter

Isn’t the posting date and time an obvious clue it might not be real?

Model/Actriz got added which I suspected as they are playing the Lex on Thursday, worth checking out if you like post-punk/dance-punk/noise

Via the A303, up to shepton mallet then I think the A371 across to Wells, although its been a good few years since we last did this so my memory might be spotty!

When we drive from London we loop up to Wells and down via Glastonbury town, so we come down to the car parks from the North East, gets us into Pink/Orange. If you come from the A37 side you end up in Blue/Purple. They close off some roads going across so you can't go directly over
