O'Doyle Rules

Apologies - Pilsner! Can tell I only had one or two then moved swiftly on 😄 They should bring in Tiny Rebel or Beavertown and be done with it. Although 130,000 on Gammer Ray would be quite dangerous.

P*ss really wasn't it 🤣

I am very happy silver hayes is now defo a good option for your evening. Quite honestly, sick of SE these days.

Have been 11 times in 12 possible festivals (one was missed due to backpacking and another I worked for Oxfam). I do think it is having as many people try for you as possible. The issue is those idiots who don't IMMEDIATELY let everyone they know trying know their ticket is secured. Are there actually any secrets to getting a ticket? Or is it just luck? I see forums where they say if you have multiple devices on an IP address try, that can block. Maybe it is simply a case of overthinking...

10th visit to the farm this year and, if anything, it is becoming more and more important to me for my mental health. Just wondering if anyone else feels the same? And I am not the only one who loves that place a bit too much 😄

Friends are taking my big rucksack, so hopefully just a small bag with me on the coach - walk through site or shuttle (if there is one)? Thanks!

Any idea what time Newcastle leaves Thursday - got a horrible feeling I won't be in until lateeeee Thursday, which is a shame given how much fun happens that day.

Nice Friday slot available. Imagine before Arctics?

Yes I did. Got through coach 10 minutes after it sold out....

I got through 10 minutes after it sold out. Ticket from Newcastle on Thursday Is going on a Thursday a killer? Feel like I will miss the whole thing haha

It’s arguably their best single tbf.

Oh I knew that. Filth.

Had a toastie which was clearly a Tesco £1 big pack of ham + sliced cheese. Absolutely hit the spot.

Queues for coffee and showers (for men) we’re a joke. However, the easy entry and not having to put up a tent were worth £150 each tbh.

Hi all, After each festival I get the fear that it may be my last for a while following a difficult ticket day. I’ve been nearly every year since I started going - usually trying to get involved in as many groups as possible and trying furiously on the day. Do other regulars think, with a bit of determination and planning, that getting a ticket is a reasonable probability? I can’t help but feel next year will be the quickest sellout year due to massive media coverage of this year’s festival. However, there are a lot of regulars here so I wonder if there is a common theme why everyone is relatively successful. Best!

10th one this year and the Glasto blues seem to have hit me much harder than usual. Not sure if it was just being that happy for a week (including the buildup) after a rough few years during the pandemic. Anyone else feel same? Any tips on how to manage them? I find it quite hard to describe to others how a festival can make you cry about normal life when you come back, but it certainly seems like some form of medical conditions 🤣

What are your favourite bars at Glastonbury and why? Near pyramid in 2019 I found a tent playing Irish music after the Cure but have no idea where exactly!

Hi all, I am staying at Worthy View this year. My friends who were originally driving from London have a wedding on the weekend before in Wales so will be staying out west. What is the best/easiest way to get to worthy view if not driving? My plan was to get a train Tuesday morning and stay in an air bnb close by and have a pre-booked taxi take me to worthy view weds morning. Is there a town nearby which means any car doesn’t need to drive around the site (and avoid the traffic)? thanks!

Just saw Foals live. I haven’t been this happy in 18 months. I love every single thing about live music. The friends you make, the “I’m to old too old to be in this moshpit”, the terrible toilets. And Foals played Neptune ❤️ After the most horrible 18 months I felt like crying with joy just seeing everyone happy. Sorry for soppy post but it’s just great

Reformed and headlining Coachella. No doubt playing Reading, but would be a great booking for Glastonbury. Sub-Kendrick or Other against Swifty?
