    Cleaning the compost loos. Indeed. There were very few horror stories tbh, lots of them were backstage and well taken care of. The hardest part was so much walking and physical work.

    Last year was the first time they've done such a big operation at Glastonbury, with over 1000 toilets and a decent amount of staff. So a lot of their preparation got done last minute, including a last minute staff grab. With people disappearing and forfeiting their deposit, there were also people arrving mid-fest. They are more prepared this time, which should mean less hard work for me.

    Ill keep my eye peeled .

    Thanks for the reply

    2013 - First sale (plus got through again for someone else), then gave up my ticket as my friend didn't want to go, and I didn't know what I was giving up.

    2014 - First sale

    2015 - Failed first sale, got disillusioned by how many friends gave up after that, didn't renew Glastonbury determination til June when I got a volunteer spot.

    2016 - Failed first sale, failed resale, failed unannounced sale... Never tried coach sale, I shall from now on. Emailed the people I worked for last year, they have said I can do it again this year, although the're essentially full. :)

    Ive done 11 Glastonburys in a row but this year I'm still without a ticket.Ive been sat on this thread with all sufficient alerts and whatnot for four days .I got my details in yesterday but ultimately not quick enough.

    Im curious about volunteering .What line of work was your job last year ? 

    And how did you manage to get a spot so late in the day last year?

    I'm seeing a lot of familiar names from last year that were successful in the secret resale last year but didn't succeed yesterday. Are you all as down as me about it today?

    I plan to soldier on till an official announcement from Glastonbury or SEE like last year

    Was absolutely ridiculous. Watching Bob Dylan with a spliff and a mojito as the sun went down was a proper once-in-a-lifetime vibe.

    (Florence cancelled, so De La Soul got bumped to the main stage)

    I was there that year too. Didn't Arctic monkeys play too? Im 34 and showing my age hahaha.

    Iwasnt keen on a festival in car park
