I had the misfortune of actually seeing Brucey at Avalon one year. Stayed about 5 minutes until I got sick of his misogynistic reactionary drivel.

I love the way that you manage to bring positivity to the thread

+1 for the pizzas 🍕 they were far too good

Looks good (if a little posher than festivals I’m used to). See you in August if I don’t see you on the farm

Generally you will be assigned one of the standard shift patterns. I can’t remember what they are but I’m pretty sure that they are posted somewhere in this thread. I think that you get one morning shift, one afternoon/evening shift and an overnight one

Just signed up for Wilderness. If I hate it I will hold you fully responsible and will come and hunt you down

Anyone done Wilderness or Boardmasters with Oxfam before. Thinking of adding another festival when the dust has settled today. Any feedback to help me decide would be great

Just bagged a slot for Shambala! Should have my regular spot for Glastonbury when the GFEL website opens later but they’ve changed it this year to you just notify them your available and then they let you know 🤞

Not for another 10 hours though 😟

If you work for a large company they may pay you for volunteering/ charity work. It’s worth checking you might save your a/l

Stop getting my hopes up!!!

Very unlikely and probably not at her best if she has had to relearn how to play the guitar. I normally avoid heritage acts but I would be all over this

Plus doctors and full medical teams (only for those qualified) bin painting and lots of other roles

Were the Royston Club supporting? What were they like?

Burning plastic with noxious fumes when all the paper had gone. Don’t know whether it made it easier for the litter pickers or not

Wow! A banned list for Glastonbury 😯😯

I think that you can buy a car park pass on the gate for cash still. Not sure that the wait to get out of the car park and navigating to B&W with the road closures would be any faster-it could take even longer. @pilton digger might know

Hopefully dynamic pricing will kick in and bring the prices down to acceptable levels

No but Floyd wrote one about his brother

The play was good but not wow on the night that we went. The staging and production were great

I was just going from personal memories. I would not have gone to her headline show, but after her pulling out with breast cancer and then the number of people wearing Kylie masks and hot pants and flags with supportive messages to her I think that most people who were there both years would have gone to see her

Part of the reason for the massive crowd was the pulling out of the headliner slot in 2005? And the reasons that she pulled out for. There was a lot of emotional energy in that field and it was a moment. To me Shania, or most other legends,will never have or create that amount of energy . True moments are quite rare even on the farm. Shania needs to be compared with run of the mill legends. Does she compare to Ray Davies. Tom Jones etc? Yes. She has the stature to do it Having said that she doesn’t do it for me and I probably wouldn’t be there.

Has Paul Wellend reached legendary status yet?

It’s not just music I went to Macbeth in Liverpool on Saturday and someone just in front of me started videoing the whole thing! It was only when their partner told them to stop that they put it away. Still had people getting their phones out checking the time/their socials all the way through. Incredibly distracting and disrespectful

Doesn’t that show that there is more demand for pre-erected which is what you were querying?
