Ah man. Used to live in Scotland and would go to clubs in Glasgow - The Arches, Subclub, MAS, Alaska. Soma Records brought me so much good music, so many good nights out and just great times. I love the label and love the tunes.
How was your festi?
Blinding... looked at the program a few times then got spangled, forgot everything I'd looked at and followed my ears. Usually to some edm... Only caught the name of one DJ, playing by the railway in the glade area, like a very low treehouse, playing old skool hard house and techno, about 50 people tops stomping around smiling, brilliant vibe. She was about mid fifties and called Louise... Saw 5-6 bands, Massive Attack was the only headliner. You have a good one?

/\ Such a tune.
Any relation...

Scotland will no longer be part of the UK though and therefore even more irrelevant to Somerset than normal.

I got in with a young lads ticket which I bought off him for face value. Got there early and went through in the initial rush and was able to pick a ticket checker who wasn't really looking. Not the first time I've done it, not that I wouldn't rather get one in the sales. If I had been refused entry I would have tried other methods to get in.

First I've heard of it, my guide hasn't been out of its plastic case this year.
If people struggled to find Arcadia they must have been very very wasted.

13 weeks
95 days
2280 hours
136800 minutes
8200000 seconds until ticket day.
I think your inclination to start panicking now is maybe slightly irrational.
I'm still coming down...
-
That's awful... a slightly related question but what experience have people had with getting in using somebody else's ticket if they just "look a bit like" the original owner? For example if you buy one second hand.

They tried roofs on the longdrops a few years back. they where horible. much smellier. No one liked them.

i stopped out until 6.30 so slept until midday, left the campste on Oxlyers at 2.30 out of carpark at just gone 3 and home by 5.15 to Plymouth.

I have commented about this before but past a certain point of the day you just cant get a rubbish truck round to empty the bins as its just too busy. The oil drums have to be small enough to actually be physically empied by a person into the trucks as well, any larger and they couldnt be lifted.

Has anyone used a roll of clingfilm as an alternative to pallet wrap? Does it work?

The first problem is the nuts and bolts on the hub coming undone,make sure they are tight, if they undo under load it can write off the wheel. Next problem is wheel collapsing under v heavy load. (See my twin wheeler) Third problem is the steel strips in a triangle shape buckling under v v heavy load. (I,ve welded a reinforcing plate in there on my modded sack truck) Twin wheels are v good on soft ground as well.
My two, standard (bad boy) and the modded one (very bad indeed) Doubt a modded one is needed for Glastonbury. I built mine as I kept breaking them moving lumps of wood around.

Face value...

I think it's like the principle of induction charging, you would find a magnetic compass would go haywire underneath them. If you were to place a coil of conductive wire underneath them you would produce a voltage in the wire. It is how electric toothbrushes charge, but on a slightly larger scale.

This oggie thing doesn't sound appealing haha
-
I find it odd that it's not possible for See to void the missing tickets and issue new ones. I've worked on a few box offices now and when people have lost theirs/not received them, we can issue reprinted ones within reason because the old barcode can't be used anyway.

Sellotape the bottle to your 4 year olds body, they won't be getting patted down.

Get round there and start emptying her bins...
She could have given it to someone who would have made good use out of it.
And to think I couldn't get a ticket in the sales, could you keep her away from an internet connection on the first Sunday in October this year please.

like this guy ? - another heading for disaster. { all he had to was make certain they were in the middle }
each year I wait to catch the first few though the gate - and its the best laugh ever .
You would think that some people were emigrating with the amount of stuff they carry in.
Some people look as if they are about to have a heart attack - why they don't shift stuff in stages I cant say all I know its better than killing yourself.

If it's your first year you're not going to see everything the festival has to offer, not by a long way.
-
Was it 08 after the 07 mud bath that it struggled to sell out with the last tickets going on the day the festival opened? Had a great time in 07 but would prefer it not to be like that.
The medical centre tends to be busier on a hot year like 10 by all accounts. Different types of illness and injuries, not much shade onsite. I spent a lot of 2010 seeking shade in the Glade area. Cloudy but dry for me.

Erm, make that 44 cans now.

Am wondering about this. When the queue is going all the way round the car park and along a ditch I'd feel a bit shady pushing past because I'm heading for the re-entry point. Or does the main queue disappear pretty quickly after gates open? I'm talking Gate D mainly here.
Are you a camper or is it just for Glastonbury?

I've always been camping, festival wise took a caravan for a few years, second time I took a tent as well so I could camp. Found the CV fields to be a bit too quiet, prefer the atmosphere of the camping areas... HMV cleaning facilities? Isn't that what wet wipes are for ;-)
