    Thanks for that, it's really interesting.
    I guess something is lost in translation when a 'Cerveza' is 3 Euro, but a 'Mini Cerveza' is 9 Euro!
    I'm happy at 3 Euro for a beer.

     

    Mini is one of the big plastic pots. Honestly at those prices, a litre of vodka mixer (mini combinado) was a bargain IMO.

    Does anyone have any idea on how much beer costs at the festival?

     

    Can't remember exactly, but the bar prices were all quite reasonable last year. Think minis (big fuck off litre plastic cups of beer) were around the 6-8€ range.

     

    Only issue is with it being so bastard hot in Madrid, that a litre of beer gets warm and flat real quick unless you finish it sharpish.

    Can anyone tell me if the bars where you top up your wristbands are cash only or can you pay by card? Not a fan of carrying alot of cash. Be handy if I can just top up with a few contact less hits throughout the weekend. 

     

    Last year you could use both card and cash to top up the wristbands.

  4. My wristbands were delivered via courier yesterday B)

     

    They've got the barcode built into them again like last year, so am assuming it'll be cashless bars again with you having to 'charge' the barcode at pay stations, then having it scanned when you're getting drinks/food.

    If I got paid at £10 an hour for the time spent here trying for tickets for other people I could afford to buy them to backstage ones at £800.00 each.

    When this is all done I will have to remember what I filled my life with!!

    Goodness knows what I will do in early May next year!

     

    Where do you buy the backstage tickets from?

    The "there is no secret sale" is evidently untrue from previous years, but I have to say I'm not reasonably concerned that there may not be one this year, probably for the reasons they have stated in that email.

     

    The thing is, they've never called it a "secret" resale. I've seen it referred to as a "flash" resale officially, but never a "secret".

     

    So maybe they're just fucking with us over semantics.

  7. I need to get some food. That involves leaving the computer for at least 5mins to use the microwave.

     

    A calculated risk.

     

    Maybe my sacrifice to the Gods of Sods Law will bring prosperity for others.

  9. Someone could email/tweet SeeTickets and ask them something like "Can we use debit cards for Glasto resale, or is it only debit cards?" and see if they are tricked into confirming the existence of a resale.

  10. Would be interesting to see a list of the updates that took place just before the flash resales the last couple of years. See if there was a pattern to predict in terms of what order they're changing stuff prior to it happening.

    I doubt that's gonna work. They're probably gonna test on a copy of the page we're currently monitoring, and as soon as they want the ticket sale to happen, they will replace the current page with their new page. So as soon as you notice the change in html, hundreds of efesters are already buying their tickets.

     

    Yeah, was very much a theory of the straw clutching variety :P
