    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!

    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

  3. 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!

    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? 🤷‍♂️

    How the hell do I get a Twickets alert to work?

    Missed a Beautiful Days camper van pass this morning as the alert I set up didn't work.

     
    There’s an app too and I believe alerts get there quicker than emails so download that too

    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 🍺

  7. 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?

  8. 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

    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.

    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
