Daimo

We took our two year old this year. We’re in a campervan so can’t answer your camping question but we had the best time ever and it was our fifth glasto. We spent a few hours a day at Kidzfield (most of Thursday) to appease her and were sensible about who we wanted to see. For example if we knew pyramid would be rammed we stayed near the back. Stayed away from SEC. Most people were accommodating and decent about us having a small buggy. The odd person tried to climb over the front and one woman was so f@@ked she fell into it but I caught her luckily. Our two year old had a great time too and was perfectly happy the majority of the time. Yes you won’t get to see everything you want but it’s glasto so you never do but these memories we made with her are worth so much more than that.

Can you point me in the direction of the Glastonbury family group

Here's my Slam Dunk North experience. Arrived at the "festival village" at 9:30am, pretty poor - 1 food truck serving burgers (not really breakfast fare) and the bar wasn't serving alcohol till 11. The Kerrang Tent - stank of manure and was a literal sh*t show, having one entrance was a nightmare and some of the bands in there could have been on bigger stages. However when you managed to get in past the crush at the entrance, the other side was pretty empty. I liked the idea of one band starting when another finished but it caused a ton of issues with access. Was never really affected by queues, got food at a chicken and chips place pretty quickly about 1pm, the bars were quite quick even if the staff were a bit inexperienced/overwhelmed. Urinal queue was mental and I can see why folk were pissed off with the portaloo lines. Sound Issues - I only really heard these during Millencolin where the sound was very poor, the rest seemed ok. The place was rammed been going to Hatfield the last few years and this was mental, a bigger venue is needed if they want to sell that many tickets. We left before Offspring because we knew it would be insane getting out. On another note my mate was travelling on the Big Green Coach from Edinburgh which never showed, was replaced by taxis and he didn't arrive until about 12:45pm However I had a cracking day and saw some great bands, not sure if we will go next year unless there's some major changes

Hope everyone had a great day today, how easy was it to sneak booze in? Anyone have experience of doing this at north? Cost of living and all that gonna give it a go

Anyone know what sort of time the Big Green Coach from Edinburgh gets to the North site at? It leaves at 5:45 so I’m guessing around 10?

Unfortunately in Europe the Friday Saturday and Sunday of Glasto

Got mine earlier this year, design by my pal at Edinburgh Illustrations

Met Kat from Scowl in Glasgow last night, she said unfortunately they’re not playing Glasto, I thought they might with them smashing Coachella and being at Outbreak on the Saturday

If you have cash to burn Lovefields still has camper pitches at £750 for a VW or £850 for other campers

Got the one I wanted! Thanks to everyone who offered a spare

Well if anyone has a spare let me know after tomorrow ……. can only hope

Thanks folks

So campervan resale is tomorrow, how mental is this expected to be or will it be a fairly civilised affair?

What’s the other place?

Looking like a busy day for me Sincere Engineer > Destroy Boys > Teenage Bottlerocket > Spanish Love Songs > Fireworks > Millencolin > Underoath > Menzingers > Less Than Jake > Creeper > Malevolence > The Offspring Bands in bold are my must see’s. will leave Menzingers early to get to LTJ then leave that early to get a good spot for Creeper.

Was convinced they would be the so called missing headliner, who do we think now people?

Would love Rancid was gutted when they pulled out last year, going to be a lot of clashes I think

Seems to be a lot of chat about an unannounced headliner, who do we think it could be? Rancid??

Just saw them at Riot Fest and they were incredible, there’s no way they are opening the pyramid stage, I’d say Other Headliners or 2nd down pyramid

Turnstile Paul McCartney Nova Twins (Thursday)

The festival goers seem to be of a different breed this year, always had a great time and loved it but saw my first assault yesterday afternoon. huge scouse guy was being a prick and trying to push in the toilet que, when a chap confronted him the guy waited for him outside the urinals and started smacking him about the head. No one did anything to intervene so I stepped in to break it up and try to calm things and nearly got a kicking. Total disgrace and no security anywhere. Just seems to be a more unfriendly atmosphere. I’ll be back though 😀

thanks so much folks, really appreciated! @Wanderlei good luck we bottled glasto just due to the sheer size. Should add we are taking her to Riot Fest in Chicago in September 😂

Should add we’ve been to the fest quite a few times so know about the kids field etc

Can anyone tell me their experience of taking their babies or toddlers to Glasto, good or bad? We thought about taking our 16 month daughter with us but bottled it (maybe next year)

Got my tickets, travelling from the U.K. (with a 2 year old) can’t wait for the line up to drop
