Secret resales 2015

[faymondo]

Only just opened the relevant pages ready this morning after last nights events. I suppose we must go on as normal but truly shocking events last night. 

[Redwinevino]

Part of me thinks there is no way it will be today after last night - but I suppose there is no real reason to think that

[actionstations]

on the night of the westminster attack, my band were on our way to play a show in london. it was the weirdest atmosphere, like the crowd were sucking all the energy out of us, really very odd. a lot of people who said they'd be there didn't make it as they didn't want to leave their homes. it reminded me a bit of seeing the flaming lips at the roundhouse just after that tornado hit their hometown, which was a very numb strange gig... heavy heavy vibes.

glastonbury has been my sanctuary from the normal world since I first went in 09, I just can't imagine how it'll feel if I don't get tickets, like I'm not invited to my own birthday party or something...

Shocked by last night  awful people targeting the young.

My friend won a competition and put my name down as a guest, so amazingly I believe I am now going Glasto! Problem is, I still need a ticket for my fiance. I got engaged at the festival last year so it's going to be sad if we can't both go together. If anyone has a spare space (long shot) I would love you to help her out!

Congrats, that's great news!

Very surreal in Manchester today. A mix of stunned silence and solidarity.  

Unrelated to last night's events, I'm off to visit my Mum in hospital this afternoon.  Has anyone got room for one on their list from midday onwards?  

[jdizzle]

Dont let the scum bags put you off that's them winning!  if you have gig tickets make sure you go and hold your head high! 

[Hugs]

I have a friend who works for the company that prints the Glastonbury tickets.  He said they started printing the first batch this week.

I'm not even a parent but I started tearing up watching this. Such a shame. I can't imagine what would be going through your mind if you were parent or the heartache of not being able to contact them.

Morning all, I saw this unfolding last night and barely slept at all. Thoughts are with everyone affected in Manchester but also second whats been said - We cannot let them win and control us!

I like that you appear not to be considering missing it for your fiancée. Priorities after all, and if she's a good-un she'll understand.

Really hope that you manage to get the second ticket for her. Best of luck.

After the news it puts everything into perspective.. not understanding how/what could target what was a predominantly young teen based event or parents with young children.

Give the perpetrators to me I have some very hungry pigs here and I can deal with the teeth they leave behind , and not lose any sleep...in fact I'll sleep a lot better than last night watching such tragic events unfold 

To all those pieces of shite out there , you will not break our spirit, you will not weaken our resolve and you certainly wont stop us attending concerts, festivals, or any other populated gathering . So stick your suicide vest up your bum and take as many of you bottom feeders with you.... edit bottom feeders are too good to be a description of pure evil 

See...lets get this show on the road, today more than any other... life is too precious to waste on the threat of evil because they will never win

Morning all. Given the events last night, I'd completely forgotten about any potential resale until just now. Was up until 2am watching it unfold. Dark times.

I have already commented about last night. For a moment I did feel like giving up. My daughter has tickets to see Shawn Mendes next week and my immediate thought was she shouldn't go, but no. Life goes on and music is a part of our lives. So, I have done some digging about tickets. There appears to be something amiss.

I don't know if any of you are monitoring other Glasto Threads, but the one called "Tickets Despatched" has a post on it that See had tweeted that some people will get tickets a week before Glasto. Nobody seems to have received any tickets yet.  "The ticket information on the Glasto website says that tickets will be received at least 14 days before the event. Howeverrrrrr.....I saw a tweet from See on Monday which said they expect everyone to have received them 7 days before. Something's up."

Any chance he could print a "few" extras

I agree, no one having received tickets yet does seem unusual to me, I had received my ticket by this time last year ...

[Breeze]

100% agree with the sentiments that we should pay our respects to the victims but keep going on about our lives normally. If we let their disgusting, mindless, murderous idiocy affect us we are playing into their hands.

Keep rocking in the free world. They hate that.

Very true

[andyb66]

I'm pretty sure this time last year I was in possession of my ticket and I spent a month worrying about losing it!
