having done family here last year.... its miles away..yes it slightly quieter with security to get into it...and yes you can get in without kids... who says what a family is.... however come Fri its rammed... would I do it again....not on yer life....
-
not this one then.... I'd head for smaller festivals that allow it this far too commercial with searches n sniffer dogs n lots of herding like animals lol
-
IOW has never been cold in my recollection... so wouldnt worry bout that....
-
have to say having been there before transport to town is generally good if you want to die on a train rammed more than rush hour in London... the feste itself is SOOOOOOO commercial you can only buy beer or red bull there... pleasan t views with shuttle service to campsite... Headliners chose their time... so might not be last on
and it does rain in Lisbon so dont be fooled
-
I still think that one year they shouldn't announce anyone playing and put random bands on random stages and you just happen across what you happen across. U2 in the Glade, Hobo Jones on The Pyramid etc
-
Dont you just know it... c**** malunty you have been warned already tonight... lol
-
Sounds like a good one. Wouldn't be my first choice, but I wouldn't object to it.
-
they said it sold out last year...then released another 10,000 tickets....personally I dont think it did...and certainly people we knew got tickets really cheap outside festival which was gutting having paid full price...think it this climate it will be not too bad..but never say never
-
waiting to take over from YOU obviously.....hehe
-
a random seven nation army - the white stripes...the joys of music tv!
-
2 tickets purchased yesterday so Mr & Mrs Beautifulloser will be there as ever, slow off the mark as disorganised as ever!
-
lovely jubbly.....
We have our usual bunch coming with us Mr.Steve & Mrs Steve and Katey and of course possibly the best ever band I've ever seen cappuchino music man himself DADDY COOL PHIL waits......
At Michala's Patio set .....with baited breath.....
-
Seeing as how I've got my tickets I'll defo be going - been trying to persuade my friends and the line-up's been putting most of them off. Even if it's camping with camp eFests (if that's okay with you all) I'm sure I'll have a great time, but I'm very bored with laddish guitar music and synths, so not a great deal for me so far - it tends to narrow things down a bit
-
Have applied to work this (and TITP) with Festaff, so might be there
-
Wow thats some line-up booked so early.... although think maybe a little less haste with line-up and make us wait a bit considering most festivals in August just beginning to let there line-up go now if there isnt enough to grab peoples attention then I really dont know what will....
-
Have you now? Where were they last fest?
Playing round efests Camp with Mike....but then you were a late comer
Although that was before the chaos started...then handed over to family and were around the site at the weekend

like my other post if you collect clubcard tokens or know seomeone who does you got 4x value for ferry which saves you loads if taking car 30 tokens =120 ferry etc etc so worked out good for us and you can part pay in cash too
Car parking is free...gates dont open til 12 or 12.30 n not a minute before and it can be chaos at car park to get in...although parking was simple last year but we arrived so so so early I dropped my other half off at bus station with bags camping gear to save us walking as far with stuff ...It worked we got our pitch and everyone elses in White ...closest to main arena if you not in posh or family/disabled camping... downside is you are really herded even if you arrive early on the Thursday and facilities round about lacking...ie water was nowhere to be seen n 2 portaloos for approx 500 people really isnt great...not with so many on cider/beer not to mention no escape from the sun (so hard done by at IOW weather wise
-
for those of you looking to save some cash you can also use tesco clubcard vouchers to get 4x the value on ferry crossing if you look it up online...we did it from Southampton last year and if you're taking a car it can save you loads think we used 30 quids worth of tesco vouchers n got 120 worth of vouchers for ferry and paid the odds...cos it CAN BE VERY EXPENSIVE taking car over
-
I'd second that as Indieheart used to travel from there via Portsmouth
-
Still a large no from me, not really any decnt acts going, less than half of camp lala will be there, plus me and the boys are looking at a spain trip and im going to canada in sept so need to watch the budget
-
Sadly its a no from us even though Ian likes the look of the line-up and I enjoy the weather and camp banter has been good n interestng I'm afraid Glasto got our money this year which was supposed to be our last big festi and commercialised festival until rumours of download thanks to our friend Darren we bought tickets and Mike will get to see ACDC and RATM for the 4th time not to mention Aerosmith who I dont like...but who can argue with a 10year old... I do believe the cracking people we have met at IOW we'll bump into a lot of you at Glasto and those we dont I'm sure we'll catch up with you at some point soon
For those needing sold IOW its a good festival with not much running around and if its your first it'll be perfect.. if you're used to bigger commercialised festivals too its a good one...downside is the queing to get into the arena when you are already so clearly there and the searching of bags so you dont take food into arena even if its for a child is quite off putting...but the weather is good there and if your lucky like we have been you'll meet a cracking bunch of people to camp with n maybe sort out your own camp lala and make some really good friends
-
is gutted by lack of regular SSW responses...you know who you are....all we want to know is are you coming or not...
-
Just bought ours.
Bringing our 13 year old Geordie god-daughter with us for her first festival (or indeed gig!)
