Didn't know where to put this and didn't want to start a new thread - does anyone know what the situation is with Campervan passes post resale? I wasn't successful yesterday, though had I been, I'd have been trying to get a campervan pass too (for the very first time). Is this now impossible?

Yeh majority of our groups are back in for resale. Normally late April, right? I'd like to just forget it and commit myself to another festival, but I don't fancy the R.Wertcher line up, already got Green Day tickets so not arsed with IOW, may attempt Shambala but the music never stands out for me... so I may as well admit defeat and let the Glasto resale decide

2 groups out of 8, were successful. The same girl in one group got through twice and got tickets. Welsh WiFi success. My group wasn't successful. Absolutely f**king gutted. Will be back on here near resale I suppose. Well done to those who got tickets x

Immense. Add Everything's Not Lost somehow and it's not far off perfect!

Did QOTSA do this for 2011 or have I got it mixed up with Metallica?

What do you mean by press a key? I've populated the auto fill section in Chrome... do you mean that if I get through and I start to type out that first Reg No, the rest will auto fill?

Blazer! Yessss this man knows.

Nah I'll always throw a camping chair into this mix. A camping chair that never leaves your camp site, mind. None of this pitching up a chair at the Pyramid, but after 10s of 1000s of steps for hours and hours, having a camping chair to chill in whenever you want is absolutely vital.

Get on the blower to Chris and sue him if so me mon

What was the deal here... how did they give them out? One of two Glasto's I've not been to since 2011 and I've always wondered how the hell they gave these out? I watched this set from a little hostel in Laos, absolutely smashed with my Mrs asleep, knowing 20+ mates were at Glasto. Bittersweet, first world problems!

You're not wrong

I didn't know what had hit me. That 'Wonderful World' was so beautifully done. Even tracks I wasn't arsed about (Lost! for example) were so brilliantly placed and delivered. Walking away from the Pyramid after, my mate kept restarting the chant from Viva la Vida, the atmosphere was electric. Chris Martin is an absolute professional and he was in the peak of his powers that night. If only they'd have whacked in White Shadow...but now I'm being picky!

Yeh even as someone who really wants them there, selfishly as I've only seen them once, it seems awfully close to their last performance. Felt the same about Arctics - 2013 was a masterclass for me, they should not have been there this year for sh*t.

I nearly cried all of the water out of my body...

I think the latest version I saw had been remastered because it sounded incredible. Years back I watched a sh*t version of it. Forgot how insane Shiver sounded. To say I fell in love with Glasto from that moment is an understatement.

In fact I watched that 2011 gig back on YouTube for the first time last weekend after a few nibbles of mushroom-infused-chocolates and it propelled me back to that night, my first ever Glasto headliner experience. Me and my mate were talking about the stick that they sometimes get, and the accusation that they're boring or depressing. About half way through I asked, when does the boring sh*t happen because this is absolutely euphoric. His professionalism, their lyrics, their energy, the craftsmanship of the band who are utterly brilliant musicians. If anyone can watch that gig in full and think it's sh*t I'd question their taste.

Don't be sorry. Efests isn't the holy grail of musical opinions. There were people on here who scoffed at Elton John headlining when it was rumoured... Coldplay are an exceptional live band with an absolute stack of anthems and hits. I've seen them once. Glasto 2011. And it was beyond belief. I'm at the stage where I'd be gutted now if they aren't headlining (if I get a ticket obviously). The place will be packed for them as it always is and 10s of 1000s of people will be buzzing.

Hope you were on someone's shoulders, taps aff to Ultravox and Eddie Izzard doing Vienna?

Still holding out hope for Annie Lennox 😕

Utter bollox. It would go down an absolute storm without a moments hesitation. She's an absolutely incredible live performer at the top of her game, with a super voice. And stacks of brilliant tracks. I don't think it'll be Pink at all, for what it's worth.

I'm actually that pumped for this now that I'll be disappointed if they aren't announced. Not seen them since their headline set in 2011 which was monumental. Well up for them headlining again and the atmosphere that will create.

Literally yesterday, I was planning on making a passive comment on eFests about how Nelly Furtado hasn't been around for ages and I wonder if she'd ever play at GF...

Are Stereophonics no longer touted? I remember seeing them on a few predictions earlier on.

This would be the most acts I've ever wanted to see in 8 GF's. Clash hell. Would take it in a heartbeat.

You saying there's a chance of this? ITK?
