I don't care what anyone says, that bus was a piss poor replacement for the epicness that was the Genosys, I really hope it was just temporary cost cutting post covid and the proper stage setup makes a return, it was so unique.

Of the big stages West Holts sound the best imo. The Other stage and pyramid can be affected by wind if you're far back. Of the smaller stages I think IICON probably has the best sound now. The old Funktion One setup on the old Glade Stage (rip) was the best on site but they've rejigged the glade and that stage is different now and I'm unsure if Funktion one are still doing any of the sound systems in the glade but would love to know if anybody has more info?

I think this year will be easier because of the price rise, main sale was still 50 quid so anyone who wanted to could still try their luck.

Dunno if this was posted already but they are sounding really good, what are the odds they appear somewhere?

The photos are lovely but I honestly can't tell what areas of the festival I'm looking at without tents and flags and crowds of people etc. Maybe if I was there in person id be able to navigate it better but id probably just be lost and disorientated.

I also think the old layout was better, but they can definitely fit a lot more people in there now which was probably necessary.

He’s done a load of collabs recently, I wonder will he bring Britney out???

In the field you couldn’t really hear her, at least where I was stood anyway. That may have been by design. I think Elton’s voice is in slightly better nick. People on here said Macca’s voice was shot before last year but he sounded middling to good imo.

Don't we normally get some sort of announcement after the sale? Where's the thingyy?

I would also like Skin on Skin to show up somewhere, was here there last year?

Aphex Twin?

I don't think they rehearse much, but their sets aren't full improv either I don't think. Amazing energy though. They would be better in a dingy club rather than a tent at glasto.

Perfect for IICON i think?

Is this not a form of religious discrimination? Presumably if you were Muslim they would give you the time off? Therefore the only reason you aren't being approved for it is because you aren't a Muslim, discrimination cuts both ways.

With the higher price the resale will likely be easier this year, fingers crossed for everyone who missed out.

I could be wrong about this, but I think last year some of the coach and ticket packages went on sale after the announced resale in April and a few people on this forum got tickets that way. As far as I know this was the first time this had happened since 2016 but I could be wrong.

Hahaha this is absolutely wild, it seems to get crazier every year.

Never like this though, people were buying tickets 40 minutes after Emily and Seetickets announced the sellout, makes them look a bit silly. I don't think they need to overhaul the whole system, they just need to invest some money so that Seetickets has more powerful computer systems that can handle the load. It might be a good move for their business, then they could do ticketing for other large events as well.

I agree, if people make it to the buying page and get all the details in they should get tickets, it's really not fair that people just get booted out because Seetickets system just isn't good enough. The festival rakes in millions every year can they not help Seetickets put better infrastructure in place? It was absolute mess this year with neither Seetickets themselves or Emily Eavis having a clue what was actually happening, telling everyone it was sold out when it clearly wasn't. It pissed me off and I got tickets.

I get this link, the search only generates one result which I've never seen google do before (+39) 378696 #### ✆ Ricerca di numeri italiani mobile - Prefisso (dimmi-chi-chiama.it) It's an Italian phone number I think?

It's hands down the most stressful Sunday morning of the year

Absolute chaos as usual, the fact that tickets could still be bought long after See announced it was sold out caused a lot of confusion. I thought it was all over and then out of nowhere one of the girls in my group bags the ticket at about 10:30. Delighted to be going to my 5th on the trot, I feel very lucky.

This is great, don't mind the lad in the bucket hat who's off his chops

Taste of Tibet! I ate there 3 times and I never normally do that at glasto. Amazing beef dumplings with spicy chili oil.
