When the delivery guy turned up with my ticket last year he had a big smile on his face and handed it to me saying: "Have a great Glastonbury." He said it had been the best day of his year delivering Glasto tickets and making so many people so happy.

For those who are crying for the royal mail to deliver your tickets, be assured your opinion would rapidly change when you discover how they deal with things that are lost, recorded delivery or not (they will not accept that an item is lost until 14 days after despatch, after which they require a further 14 days to investigate before the item is agreed lost and the sender recompensed, so that they can then pay you back).

Ah man, and I had just changed the delivery address from my parents house to my flat. Bummer.

That said, Royal Mail aren't saints - spent a whole day chasing Reading day tickets around London because they'd gone on strike and after missing the delivery they sent it back to Mount Pleasant instead of my local sorting office, who then refused to so much as look for it, even though I had all the sack numbers and everything.

The grass is always greener eh!

I'm delighted that my mate's g/f ordered our tickets in so I don't have this hassle to "look forward" to.... However, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned about my ticket!

I was amazed that See Tickets kept their association with Glasto after the great coach clusterf**k of 2007! The Eavii are either overly forgiving or save money by signing contracts that last more than a year.

When I started payment and checked it sair sent by Royal Mail and I smiled.

Then I got the email and the smile faded pretty quick (DX).. Luckily I changed the delivery address to my wifes work after the agro of the last 2 years..

Royal mail recorded would be so much easier.

I am lucky that a DX Depot is only a few miles away from my home, and less than 1 mile away from one of the offices I sometimes work from. Last year, when I wasn't in when they first tried to deliver it, I arranged to go on my lunch break to pick it up.

In fact, it was so easy that this year I've had all 5 of my group's tickets sent to my address rather than agonise about whether or not they've managed to receive the tickets.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
