Where was this?

A dedicated van? I can't believe i missed this, and left the festival for food

Jim,

• When is the next announcement and do you still have some big name surprises to announce or is it all lower billed acts from now on?

• When can we expect the day/stage splits?

• How is Front Row camping going to be managed, is it a fenced off area with seperate wristbands?

• Can we have fabric wristbands this year?

• What cider will be available?

• You're due me a pint for allowing me to proof read your website, where do I collect this?

Thanks

[*]Can we have fabric wristbands this year?

[LETHANGIECAMPSITE]

Your right the fabric bands cost approx 35 pence each, whereas the plastic ones cost about 10pence... does not sounds a great deal but soon mounts up when you buy thousands.

I think these tend to only happen for the really big festivals. Imagine they cost quite a lot and are mostly to prevent forgeries.

Bestival has them but only because they sell out and have had forgery issues in the past. Camp bestival has plastic ones.

My guess is plastic ones are a lot cheaper.

Belladrum had fabric wristbands, so its not only the big festivals that do it

Jim,

Can you confirm if ticket sales are up at this point last year? And do you expect a sell out this year?

Jim, did you catch Jazzie B set last year? Will he be back this year?

[rocknessmonster]

Hey Jim, The last few years people have been allowed into the arena with "Hydration packs" (those wee rucksack things) will these be hunky dory this year??

Thanks mate ( and u put on one hot mo fo of a festival by the way!!)

[pothead pixie]

Hi Jim what would be a perfect icing in the cake for the line up would be to have Aphex Twin which would be extraordinarily fantastic, I wouldnt mind seeing Magnetic Man too if ye can get them. Otherwise still looking forward to this, dying to finish off the dissertation and embrace the summer.
