Nah we just walked straight in.
Champion. Our coach should arrive between 1-2pm & I hate a queue!
-
Speak to 6 people and you'll get 6 different answers. We got there at 2 last year and still found a spot not far from John Peel stage... Depends if you fancy having a late night/early start and queuing with all the freaks.
Was there much of a queue at that time for the gates?
-
What about Kanye's Cock?
It was on the tip of my tongue.......
Sorry couldn't resist
-
I'd prefer a nice cold pint
I do have a can of Stella on my desk at work, but I think that would come under the category 'frowned upon' if I cracked it open
-
I think we should all sit back, have a nice cup of tea & pray we get some new information soon, so we can all have something new to obsess over.
Smiles everyone, it's the Glastonbury way

It's actually a scam that train companies even list tickets for sale more than 3 months in advance (when they are standard prices and not discounted).
To be fair East Coast always advertise in big bold writing that the prices will drop 12 weeks before as this is when they know the size of the actual train to be able to get set times and seats etc. Not sure about other providers
-
Cheers. Only 20 quid with a rail card at the moment so I might just book it anyway...
Sounds like that's already gone down tbh. The price is normally a standard £90 for a flexible ticket until 12 weeks before for any fare on any distance, so sounds like they've dropped already
-
What's this about train tickets then? I was just about to book on the 6 o'clock from Salisbury, but will there be cheaper/more trains available from tomorrow?
Train prices tend to drop 10-12 weeks before. Virgin East Coast has already dropped, only a couple of days ago though

Personally I would need some other verification to believe the skin is going up. The 8th of April just seems way too early for me. I think last year was the earliest it went up and that was the middle of May. Early April just seems very odd
Someone who posts here and lives near by like wickedfaerie confirming it would make me a believer, but for now Im still a doubting ThomThom
That's fair enough. Like I say, I can only confirm it was sent to me by someone nearby, but can't proclaim in the first person to seeing it, as I'm a lifetime away. I just got all giddy and had to post it!
-
It may just be because they are doing it earlier, but it'l be interesting to see if they are doing something different!
Hopefully!
I have to rely on people sending me stuff through as it's a good 6 hour drive or a flight for me to go on site. I'd love to go down when the festival isn't on and have a wander
-
The skin usually does not go up until much later in a festival year.
2nd June 2009
27th May 2010
19th May 2011
Someone else may be able to get dates for 13 and 14.
But for the skin to be going up in April has to be the earliest ever, by a long way (thats if it is 100% going up now)
The girl was on site yesterday but said nothing else was happening. They did tweet that they are going to stop public access for prep to begin a few days ago.
I'd love to go down and see but I'm in Newcastle!
-
Google earth images aren't live. It's a still photo from whenever the google plane flew over
Yeah I know, but I believe it had just changed which was why this person was getting so excited last year. It had been shared a couple of times before it got to me however, so could be wrong.
The pic above was provided by someone who lives local and was in Shepton Mallet. They have started preliminary prep apparently. I'd imagine there's a shit load to do!
-
So if the Pyramid is getting dressed already could we read anything into the early dressing?
Do they need to set up the stage early to test if a certain configuration will work?
Could this point to the Sunday headliner doing something big/strange/unusual?
Rodger Waters??
Tis a stretch of the imagination but thats what the lack of info allows for at the moment.............
I've just looked back on my fb from last year and someone posted 9 weeks before showing on google earth the Pyramid with half her coat on, so possibly not as premature as we might be thinking. I'm only guessing, but maybe to do with the mass of work inside it, and needing the covers to be able to start this??? Gives a good shelter to start anything (even non Pyramid related) that needs weather protection.
-
Is that a bit early? (I can't quite remember from previous years)
Not sure, I was sent it by a fellow glasto goer who lives nearby. They did announce they are closing up to the public to start prep. Only 10 weeks to go really! Not long
-
What's been happening then? We still on Prince or we moved on to a Jim Morrison puppet controlled by Gary Barlow?
For a brief moment, we went to the sunken lows of 1D!
-
I think I have managed to upload the image of the Pyramid getting her coat on!
Yey it worked!
Boooooooodiful!
-
The BBC webcam is broke where can you see the old girl getting dressed?
Takes me back to when I was 12 and a lady down our road never closed her curtains, every
lad in the road would be out around half 9 each night
Someone I know who lives nearby sent me a pic this morning. Just the right hand side is up at the mo. Got me all giggly!
I would post on here but no idea how to upload an image!
-
Anybody feeling a 9am announcement? 2 minutes?
Please god I hope so! Something.... anything!
On a brighter note, the Pyramid has started getting dressed!
-
It won't be Chili's because they've already said Foos are this year's rock band.
It would be nice to just have a little more from them this week.
Just so I have something new to ponder.
Even if it was just a few 'non headliners' or something.
I have a problem......
-
Ok, I've had enough of waiting now. It's getting right on my norks. Why do we care so much?!!
Do you have norks?
-
11 weeks today tho peeps!!
-
Maybe they're waiting because P***** didn't get a ticket and needs one in the resale? Or is waiting for a West Campervan ticket??
Or maybe some snidey bastard put in the same hols as him at work and needs his manager to sign it off. We've all been there!!
-
I want the line up but it's only fair the resale has as much idea of the bands as we did
They haven't even closed the payment window yet by the looks of it x
-
Just had an email from 'Follow That Page'. Somebody has made a minor change to the line-up page. I can't personally see what's changed, but something must have. Are they tinkering? Could we be in for a morning announcement?
I hope to god you are right, as my brain is turning to mush! I did have a very vivid dream last night that P***** headlined, Taylor was on just before and Depeche Mode were in Shangri-La at some point???? Oooooooooooooooo
