Happy with this line up to be fair! Inspiral carpets were the first band I ever saw. At the oasis in Swindon when Noel Gallagher was their roadie 🤣

Thinking about giving this a go - are these prices 'early bird' or are they just this is what it costs? Fairly local, so a disgrace to have not been yet!
They don’t do early bird so it’s just what it costs. I’m only 20 mins from the site but only went in 2017 for the first time. Been every year since though, it’s a great festival!

IDLES have just announced a massive tour for early next year. Hmmmm...
I noticed that too. They are top of my wish list 🤞

Samantics was the highlight by far.................................. and I don't just mean the set but chatting to him and Hanna on Thursday night at the Magic Teapot and then chatting more to him after his set and getting my hat signed.
Nice. I had a brief chat with him while he was getting a coffee en route to the bimble. He seemed genuinely humbled by all the love he got for his big top set. He deserves the success he’s having

Loved Samantics and it’s good to see that he’s getting a lot of love.
Barefoot Bandit in the Bimble were fantastic and I went to see My Baby over Skindred as I’ve seen them before. No regrets, My Baby smashed it! -

Our mate has his, but there's no sign of ours yet. Have you got yours?
Yeah, arrived last week. Had an email to confirm dispatch too

Got the set alert button, but it doesn't give me the option to enter my email details.
Yeah, I hadn’t read your question properly. Have you tried the app? A friend of mine has it and says alerts get there quicker. Maybe you didn’t get an alert earlier coz it sold immediately? 🤷♂️

Main stage on Friday looks mint.
Highly recommend Samantics on Saturday in the big top too -
Yep, 5th time for me. First in a campervan so looking forward to that!
-
They’re both playing the main stage on Sunday at The Big Feastival so maybe a couple of tracks together? 🤷♂️

So unfortunately it’s not looking hopeful that I will be at the farm this year.
I hope everyone has THE best time! If you’ve not been before, you’re in for a real treat. To those veterans, enjoy your happy place for another year!
I have a little favour to ask. We lost my wonderful dad last year and he was a big blondie fan. If you see her set, can you please raise a glass to my dad Dave during the set? He’d love the idea of a load of people toasting him in the fields.
The weirdest coincidence. I just read your post while sat in a boat/bar on the river in Nantes as The tide is high is playing. I took it as a sign and we both raised a glass to Dave 🍺

I saved them. Does this work? Not much of a tech wizard!

. I may have emphasised the keep letting people bring their own alcohol line several times.
I did too - the one thing that would put me off

I had an army of friends trying for tickets in all available sales but no joy. Last year I got stuck into the TV coverage and spent a lot of time on here chatting to others who were ticketless. This year, I’m sticking my fingers in my ears and pretending it’s not happening. We’re off to France in the van, coming back on the Sunday of Glasto.
Tbf, the blow has been softened by Bearded Theory, and then Beautiful Days to look forward to. I do love Glastonbury but I think I’m coming to the realisation that I actually prefer the smaller festivals. Who knew?- 1

Anybody else filled in the survey they sent? Felt like I rambled on for ages!
Yeah, pretty in depth survey wasn’t it. Hopefully lots of other people put Idles forward for next year 🤞🙏

First time this year. And my overriding feeling is one of sadness, that I haven’t been before! Absolutely lovely festival, lovely people, great music, very well organised, just. I could go on.
I see the similarities with Glastonbury, and I agree with what others have said, i actually prefer it, less stress, easier to keep up with your mates, or know where to find them, and plenty to keep you occupied.
Loved it. Will defo be there next year.
Beautiful Days next, can’t wait -

To add to the high praise for an excellent Bearded Theory 2023, I really enjoyed photographing it this year - that is apart from stereotypically overdoing it on thursday and twisting my knee in the woodlands!
Pics now online here:

Some great photos there, thanks for sharing. Can’t believe it was only this time last week!

If they were taking notice of the band t shirts this year think Idles would be very popular
I saw quite a few too, mine included. Did you see Pigs x7? I got taken along by friends, never heard of them before. It was like watching Joe Talbot’s twin brother.

First time to BT - are there any communal fire pits to chill out around?

PS BBC weather forecast now has 0% chance of rain for the entire festival........................... STICK
The stuff of dreams! This is my first BT, I’m going with a bunch of seasoned BT-goers that I met at Beautiful Days and I’m really looking forward to it. What could be better, a few ciders in the sun and some great music to look forward to. Happy days
