Joe Broughton's Folk Ensemble self confirm. Always a lot of fun when they play The Spotted Dog pub in Brum.

Flamingods, Benny Page, Lynks, Sampa The Great

Just mention a few on my list that I don't think have been named so far: BIG SPECIAL, Getdown Services, Brown Horse, Opus Kink

Am I remembering rightly that we don't get stage splits and times until gates open for Settlers now? And some hero shares a photo of the programme?

Agreed! Chuffed with Sampha, specially as I thought he was out.

Or They Hate Change

Biscuits? Kacey?

Ah ok. Shame, just gave it a spin and it's pretty good. This seems like a good fit for sure. Really hoping it's no later than St David's Day for the line-up drop now. Can't wait much longer!

MGMT just released a new album this week - could be in the frame for a prominent Green Man slot? Possibly electro-y headliner?

Ah ok. Was specifically interested in Big Special. Went ahead and got tickets to see them in Brum this morning just to be safe.

Is it just the top two lines we can rule out of Green Man from the EOTR poster?

Oh 😞

Keeping everything crossed Sampha isn't on that line-up. Decided they'd be absolutely brilliant at Green Man after reading their name a few pages back.

But those who could afford to would have a greater chance - is that fair?

I asked but he said nothing special, just lucky!

One of my mates who isn't trying for himself until General has got in 3 times and got 3 groups!

People also seem to think there are two distinct options: See continuing exactly as it is now. Or TM employing a queue system.

It's a circular argument isn't it? Neither of us knows how many people try for each sale, and what ratio are successful for either. I'd say we need this data to say which is objectively the better system. You seem to have anecdotal evidence of issues with the Green Man system. (And I assume first hand issues previously too?) There have also been technical issues with previous Glasto sales (particularly payments failing or the site crashing at that stage, hence the new system for resales last year). So again, good luck with the Glasto sale.

I guess the sale you fail in is worse. Good luck in the glasto sale.

This nails it. And I didn't even consider the resale availability. If you're reasonably persistent and prepared you'll get tickets. Unlike Glasto.

I don't need to read a thread when I have plenty of first hand experience, cheers.

Its sold out within a day the past few times but takes hours. It's not a difficult on sale.

Got tickets the past 4 years with very few issues. Last year was a bit of a mess but still got 8 tickets. This year was very straightforward.
