My mate went on a bit of an exploratory trip round the CF site last night. Parked his car in a layby and walked across the fields.

Apparently the main stage is in a totally different spot and all the campsites are different places to last year. wonder if it will make it harder to get to?

He thinks he's found a spot to camp in, in a wood, but if anyone else is thinking of camping in a wood or anywhere else nearby drop me a private message and we can set up a mini camp somewhere outside the event! :lol::lol::D

The funniest thing is that my mate just walked straight onto the site without being questioned once at about 8 last night! Hope the security is a bit tighter than that on the day, or every scally in the North West will be wandering in! :D:D:D

Having spoken to my mate again, he says the camping appears to be closer to all the action than last year and the camping fields seem smaller, but more of them.

The main stage is on top of a bit of a hill pointing towards warrington (if that makes any sense), so should be better viewing.

My mate lives 15 mins drive away, so not a problem to check around.

We're hoping to find a decent place that we won't get booted away from!

We've got normal tickets, but couldn't get camping tickets, so we've got the adventure of finding somewhere a bit secret.

Funny thing happened though... my mate found a little wood nearby and went to drop some stuff off in there ready for it... only spotted after 10 minutes of setting up that he was about to set us up next to a big posh house in the middle of the wood! Don't think the owner would have been too chuffed, but he got away without being spotted!

Might go up and have a nosy later on, usually do every year since its been in Daresbury. But yeah, I saw the stage going up in a different position to last year.

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
    • Citizenship via investment programs basically work by saying if you invest this much in our economy (say buy a property worth x) then we will either grant you citizenship or residency with a route to it. The EU has rules on how low countries can set the bar. Montenegro was one of the easier ones to get and they've had to tighten it up.
