  1. As a teacher I can only do Friday - Sunday so this price hike is making me consider a Euro festival instead. I missed out on 2019 tickets & went to Sziget instead & it was cheap, great fun, nice city & went on to Istanbul for a soapy wash down in a spa for less.
  2. If you weren’t there in 2008 you’ve not done Reading properly. As someone has mentioned, it was like Apocalypse Now, the closest I’ve experienced to frontline warfare. But it was done sensibly & the crowd were looking out for each other, despite burning your mates tent & making sure the ice cream man was out of his van before pushing it over.
  3. If you could possibly give any updates on weather/ground situation that would be awesome. I live near Southampton & the sun is shiiiiining!
  4. Thank you! My partner has emailed the fest to let them know of our situation. There’s no phone number as far as she can find, I’m sure we’ll be fine. She can walk but only at a hobbles pace & won’t be able to spend the day on her feet. Poor lass but her relapse has occurred after we bought tickets & she’s missed out on a holiday & Edinburgh Fringe so she wants to do something eventful this summer. I’m just glad we didn’t get Reading weekend tickets.
  5. Cheers! I’m debating on seeing Metronomy or using that time to wander around the world music stage & some of the smaller ones, food etc.
  6. Thanks mate. That has given her a lot more confidence to go. We obviously will be staying towards the back for the crowds & chilling. Can’t think of any more questions it’s just keeping her happy! She is going to bring crutches too so if they take them off her will we kick up a fuss & she is bringing her GP/doctors certificate with her for her meds as well. We’ll probably just chill watching bands from the back. Thanks again

    Getting A Lift

    Cheers, I did just this & worked a treat!
  8. Will be going for the Sunday with my partner in a wheelchair. What are the crowds like… as in demographic as we don’t want any hassle from teens or even adults falling over the place? First time going. Unless it pisses it down will a robust wheel chair be fine on site?
  9. Cerebral Ballzy, early/mid 2010's in The Pit. The lead singer had a fight with a security guard.
  10. Usually take £200 for 5 days but will probably expect to spend more this year due to inflation.

    Getting A Lift

    Hi all. Been a while since I’ve posted. I have been very fortunate enough to be offered a lift by car to the festival due to the train situation. Does anyone have any good suggestions where a good place to be dropped off & picked up from close to the festival where I could jump on a coach or bus to get to a pedestrian gate? I heard there may be coaches or buses from Shepton Mallet.
  12. I must of got lucky. Changed the address last week to my parents address (as I knew they’d be in) as I realised the send address was my previous flat from two years ago. Fortunately being in a rural village they are on first name terms with the posty but they still didn’t sign for it.
  13. Sorry for this really random question but someone posted on here many moons ago about a friend of a friend who had been nominated to play Glastonbury as part of the ETC. For the life of me I cannot remember their name or find them on youtube & Google but it was an efests member who posted a link to their music. 1) Probably pre 2015. 2) The artist was a black male & under the age of 18 at the time. 3) Grime/UK rap music at a fast pace. 4) One video has him rapping walking through quite an affluent left area of London or Surrey. Sorry that's not a lot to go on but I'd like to find his music again on youtube & pass it on to a friend. If anyone can work this out I'll buy them a drink.

    How do you feel?

    First day back at work today & it was good to catch up with people I’ve not seen for six weeks. The school is expecting to see a spike in Covid cases when the kids return to school staggered from Monday through Wednesday. Excited to be back but not looking forward to teaching year 7s who haven’t been in a school for almost 2 years & aren’t used to secondary school. Oh & my pet Rosie moulted last night so I’m happy! Before & after pics.
  15. Reading cough & black bogies has always been a thing. Smoking, drinking spirits, bonfires etc. Are there really positive tests laying around?
  16. A random Indian family asked me to join them in their booth in Brighton one evening to watch Sean Lock with them whilst I waited for a gig I didn’t realise started at 11pm. I’m glad I did as it was brilliant. Anyway, just rewatched Community & Park & Recreation (skipped the first season) on NetFlix.

    Roundhay in Leeds has had a few big gigs, obviously not by the sea though.

    2022 Headliners

    I’m not too fussed about Kendrick but had hopes Taylor Swift would still return. I’ve seen AM enough times now I’m not even excited about them.
