Hey all!

This is probably a long shot, but I've just moved to England and have always wanted to attend Glastonbury Festival In all the chaos of the move, I ended up missing out on tickets and such but would still really love to go.

If someone for whatever reason happens to have either one or both tickets for 1 male white and 1 female asian (but willing to risk non-asian with dark hair), both 20-30s, I'm super anxious to join in on all the fun and would be grateful forever!

EDIT: Given the ire in some of the replies, I thought I'd make super clear what I thought would be assumed: I am willing to PAY for these tickets and am not expecting gifts

I love these ticket threads, they're like a huge game of guess who. Although I can't help you, just wanted to say welcome to England and good luck getting a ticket.

Scarsdale?  I thought it was Purley.  This must be the American script you've copied.

I'm not happy about this.

Why would someone copy the Hollywood Bowl version - that's what I want to know.

PS welcome to Britain. As this thread indicates you can expect sarcastic responses, Monty Python quotes and casual racism

What has their ethnicity got to do with it, though?
