  1. Past hour
  2. Fair point. I do find the overnights do mess you up the following day!
  3. This was my friends view too. It's not like he was picking it up by hand, they had tools for dealing with it. Sounds like i'm not as squemish as you, it wouldn't bother me. Toilets need cleaning, lots of people do it every day, it's not a big deal.
  4. This was very confusing. The trains themselves are running, you just can't do any advanced booking onto them for the duration of the festival peak transport period.
  5. I'm sure you'll have a fab time 😘 I'm going to be exercising some more moderation this year, first time for a while so will be interesting to mix it up slightly. Tbh in my case each one could well be the last I get to, so having a more memorable experience would be good 😊
  6. I love how we're all so different. Literally the last thing I want, ever, in a rave is the DJ talking at all! Coxy, DJ Rush - play us your banging tunes. But put the mic down and SHUT UP 😂. Ben
  7. I wouldn’t be there. It would be busy but nowhere near as busy as Elton. Probably not even as busy as Dolly. One of the factors that makes something Elton level of busy is the fact it feels like it could be a last chance. The Spice Girls are young enough for people not to feel that is a factor.
  8. Come on bbc and Glasto, get this camera fixed and up and running. Us retired folk who refuse to watch the rubbish daytime telly are getting withdrawal symptoms. And I suspect those at work have increased their productivity without the webcam to gaze at all day😊😉
  9. Can’t you narrow it down any further? That’s 50% of the years.
  10. I'd suspect the increase is at least partially driven by venue costs, wages and energy? Inflation has taken a toll on everything
  11. do they still put up decoy tents meant to catch thieves out?? i seem to remember this when I first started going.....or maybe they just said they were going too do it to deter??
  12. Anyone using the train to get to Glasto will get the train to Castle Cary on the Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads Line. might be worth noting for anyone doing a trip to Devon before heading to the festival but that can't be more than a handful of people
  13. If true that will take the heat of Sunak's random help your mates out honours list.
  14. Moderation is the key. Mrs C was diagnosed pre diabetic last year, a lot of her family are diabetic. Fortunately for her she doesn’t drink alcohol so that’s not a problem. It’s just a matter of sensible eating. Bought one of those home test kits and monitors blood sugar levels regularly as well as appointments with a nurse who specialises in diabetes. I’m sure it won’t affect your festival now you are aware of it.
  15. The most probable option is currently Maneskin / Queens of Stone Age / The Strokes, QoTSA option would be pretty weak though. Pearl Jam would be nice but they are "too old" for current Sziget crowd. Thats why Im thinking Maneskin could be announced.
  16. And my Keane story is that I was friends with and in a very short lived band with their current guitarist Jesse in Bristol in 2000- 2001. He is a really nice guy and massively talented musician. I know after I moved away from Bristol he was a session and touring musician for loads of bands before joining Keane full time. But yeah, they've had a guitarist for ages. But it is always a reminder to me that just because you don't dig a band's music doesn't mean the people in it aren't nice people (or massively talented).
  17. Big Irish scandal coming.
  18. Glad he didn't do that for their set in The Queen's Head, I was front row.
  19. Today
  20. Also, don't forget to explore options for accommodations like the Jungle Vista Hotel – they can add a unique touch to your journey!
  21. Some of the more memorable acts I saw that year from that postee where Santigold, Skepta, Floatimg Points, ZZ Top & LCD soundsystem
  22. For those who were hoping otherwise, looks like Ren has said he isn’t doing Glasto. I saw a screenshot of a comment he made in some online chat. He did apparently say he is coming to UK in June / July. It’s also looking likely though not confirmed that he’ll be at SGP (but that’s no use to us sadly 😢) Hopefully there’ll be other shows announced yet.
  23. Publicly available information about fees is mostly just made up nonsense. Artists don't have fixed fees, it's more of an auction and the fee can differ a lot between the shows. I don't think Pearl Jam have ever done a one-off show in Europe. And I don't even know how many years it's been when they had any EU show in August. They are quite predictable in that so why would they change it all of a sudden? So the answer is no, it's not Pearl Jam.
  24. Does anyone know if IOW is sold out this year? I'm trying to sell my tickets in ticketmaster resale, face value but no takers. I assume there must be loads of space still available.
