[cheeseisamazing]

Ok one of my friends got a day ticket for the saturday, yet he really wanted one for the sunday.

Don't be a tight c**t and buy a ticket like the rest of us

[DaLumberjack]

Don't...

Has he ever been? I guess not if he is contemplating this...

[Electricityscape]

No chance.

A couple of years back, I had sack all cash so decided to work Reading Fest.

I was in the eviction tent, and I assure you, no frigger gets in the arena. I'm sure there's people who hang around like recluses in the camp site who only get day tickets and get away with it by staying in one place, but wheres the fun in that.

As soon as you start moving, someone will notice your band is wrong, there's people hired/volunteered to do so. Then you're out, picture taken. Bye bye.

If you want to get into the arena, pay for a ticket, I kicked out about 200 chavs who tried last time, and unless your mate wants to be associated with that bunch of donkeys then get him to get a weekender! If he wants to hang in a tent all weekend like some weird tramp, he'll probably get away with it tho, good times

He should be able to build a human catapult on the Saturday night. Sunday Morning fly in, wearing superhero attire.

Whilst disapproving of freeloaders who make my experience more expensive,***********

edited decided not to post that as it might be an encouragement to the freeloaders!

I know someone (not a mate) who went to Glastonbury one year without a ticket. He said there was this scouse bloke charging people to use his rope lader to get over the fence!

[choadus]

I'll get you in, come see me on saturday hand me £20 and I'll get you in on the sunday DEAL?

[kibble]

Tell them they're twats, and it's people like them that make tickets cost more and more every year so there's more security to stop people like them getting in.

[mrtourette]

They'll never get back into the arena, although I suppose it's technically possible (although highly unlikely) if they didn't leave the arena and somehow managed to find somewhere inside to hide all night and avoid detection. But good luck getting served at the bar if they notice the band is wrong and I'm sure security will be alerted if they don't spot it first.

The bands are a little more difficult to judge with, as bearing in mind all the festivals do a different colour every year. There are bound to be similar...and for example, a chunk of my wrist is already taken up by my Red ('06), Green ('07), Gold ('08) and Black ('09) Reading bands...

The classic "my mate" post!

[Electricityscape]

This "chap" has gone very quiet now hasn't he.

[wheres the mudfight]

on sunday morning, get a hacksaw and cut his/her left hand off (assuming he/she is right handed). go to the medical tent and get them to put a plaster on it and say that he/she lost a weekend wristband. sure security won't think anybody is that mad. failing that wear a brown cloak and if any one asks say 'this isn't the wristband you're looking for' and 'you will let me through the gate' and wave a hand across their face.

Pogo stick.

[Sparticus]

this aint the 80's, your mate aint a hippie and it aint glastonbury.

They have eye in the sky cameras, he'll get caught (and this isn't scaremongering).

Bribe the security..
