Havors

That wont work for a long time yet 🙂 Thats for when the full lineup is released in May some time

Can of worms.....

That seems quite plausible to me. Friday 8th March.... I hope not though because I dont want to wait another week haha

Nathaniel Raitliff & Night sweats, Two door Cinema club, Bombay Bicycle Club, Elbow... all got Glasto gaps

1st March

Sorry I think that's bonkers personally. Recent festival appearances and brand new album out beg to differ.... no idea where this on the way down idea comes from. They have had headline slots at Boardmasters, Latitude, Ynot etc in the last couple of years.

Whats this weird thing with putting Bombay Bicycle Club first act?? Have I missed something somewhere were they have said thats the only slot they can play??

They sound great. But totally uninspired performances... caleb makes it seem as though he would rather be anywhere else than on stage. Great songs though so that always carries them through I guess.

Nothing but theives play Wembley on the saturday. Could pay friday though... these days most of the "bands" play friday. Bombay Bicycle Club first on the Other??? really? haha Plus they in Luxembourg on the saturday. Nathaniel Raitliffe play Bristol on the saturday also... 😄 I like your choices but days you have picked are impossible 😄

Thats been my guess since we heard nothing at all in 2023

They headlined West Holts 2 years ago.... They are not too big for the Park.

Got a ticket this year but im already suffering fomo for the crew bars I want my cake and to eat it 😄

Makes me sad how miserable and dull KoL live performances became over time. Their back catalogue is brilliant... They just turned boring when they stopped drinking haha

Sunday by Foals is about Glastonbury apparently

That's the most stacked lineup ive ever seen to be honest and right down my street. Oh how I wish I was there. They will never repeat anything like that, would cost them too much these days. And there is now way too much emphasis on pop and grime type acts these days. But thats just me being an old fuss pot.

Vampire weekend also. Ezra apparently just goes the festival anyway coz he loves it.

Yeah they available throughout the year usually. Back in 2019 you could just buy one when you turned up at the carpark as well but not stayed there since that year

Someone forgot to switch the sale on

So im sure someone can help... where is the best place to catch some good old vocal house/dance music? Like the Gok Wan set he smashed in the glade this year.... that was f**king bouncing 😄 Im too old for the monotonous drone of trance these days.

Im a bit confused as to what he described. See tickets have fixed the exploit? When someone does it what happens? Takes them back to the original pre-holding page page?

With the money they will have to spaff to get Madge, im sure it helps having Coldplay who will play for a block of Worthy Farm Cheese and a pint of Cider.

I feel like you're arguing with me for the sake of arguing 😝. Nobody is debating there's a large increase in costs. But the top and bottom of it is I find it hard to believe that the truly huge increase in revenue doesn't outstrip the increase in costs inc overheads. The nature of what's being offered means there is the possiblity of massive profit margins. Maintaining the profit margin and having a huge increase in revenue will mean more profit even at net. As has been said they likely make massive profit on WV which helps offset other cost for the festival. They added sticklinch because they know its a massive money maker. Surely that's obvious? Again I've never said I don't understand why they do it or that I disagree with them making profit they need/want. I'm not sure why this turned into some massive debate about me having the opinion it's a lot of money and probably unsustainable if they keep doing it. I think its a pefectly valid opinion haha

Im not ignoring anything. You are strawmanning me. My point is they are making more profit from the tents each year. I think the prices are getting a bit insane but I never once said I dont understand why they are putting the prices up or that Im not sympathetic to the reasons why. All im saying is its getting a bit crazy. I will pay the price for as long as I can afford to and Im quite entitled to my opinion thanks.

Not sure you even read my post properly, but thank you for helping prove my point.... Lets make it simple. A profit margin is not the same as profit. Maintaining a profit margin while increasing your revenue = much more profit. e.g. Year 1 - Revenue = £1m at 40% margin = £400k profit. Year 2 - Revenue = £1.3m at 40% margin = £520k profit. All this aside Im sorry you seem to have taken offence to my opinion, but thats your problem. You are quite welcome to be happy at the increased cost of tents and I am quite welcome to think the prices are getting out of hand.

Nobody is saying there isn't increased costs. But let's not pull things out of our ass and pretend we know what. It's not as simple as saying the cost of something has increased 30%. Unless you dont understand the math and margins. The price they charge for tents increasing 30% does not equate to the cost of a shower block or generator increasing 30%.... If they make £1m from tents 30% of that is much much more than the cost of some infrastructure prices raising 30%. Anyway the top and bottom of it is the prices are increasingly become quite insane (especially for what you actually get) there will be a breaking point. I'm not against them making some profit to fund other things but the prices are becoming mental.
