Working

[podge52]

This is my 4th Glasto, but it's the first where i'm not paying to go. I've managed to secure a job cooking for 1 of the bands who are playing.They aren't one of the major acts, in fact they are a minor act. All I have to do is cook breakfast for 20 people for 7 days. We are onsite from Monday 20th till Tuesday 28th. I was wondering if there are anymore efesters working for any of the other acts. If you are get in touch and lets have a meet with beer and other things!!!!!

Sounds like a really cool job. I'm working, but not doing anything as glam as that lol.

What have you got planned for their breakfasts?

Your best bet is to get one of those conveyer belt toasters and let them get on with it. A

Workers meet up sounds like a great idea,let m know.

It sounds ideal on paper but I would imagine you don't have a fully working kitchen with gas/electricity/water so its going to take you longer than people imagine.

Its likely you will not have a GFL crew wrist band so while you may have access to a few non public area's there is many areas that Security may block you access even if your only intention is to get from A to B.

I have a mate who will be performing at three separate gigs at Glasto but its going to be tricky to meet up as he cant reach me but I should be able to reach him.

Assuming my Crew camp has not moved { By now I think I have circled the site twice as each time the crew camp expands its moved to a different area } I know that it requires a GFL crew wrist band to get into the general crew area and then a second Photo ID to get into our specific WBC Crew Camp

Its normally easier to move about before the public are allowed in but if you are organising a meeting your best to pick a public area first just in case you or they cant reach each other.

So have they told you which area you will be camping in ? and will your wrist band be associated with a specific stage ?

Due to a complaint last year by Mendip District Council the Bar that used to open a few days before the gates open may or may not be allowed to open early this year - it looked to me as if it was a mix up with the dates } and I know that some of the other crew bars were told to stop serving as technically they were not allowed to open until the Wednesday - its all red tape that should have been sorted out weeks before Glastonbury.

I will be onsite Tuesday afternoon and I have already arranged to meet some of the guys who run the information tents { as far as we know we should all be in the same crew camping area near Gate D } so we will be on a wander.
