Thanks for the reply timespeedsup.

An efest camp looks appealing, but I have some family commitments around that time and may have to do some babysitting sweet-talking

Your name seems familiar, beyond seeing your posts here. Did you do the cider bus meets at Glastonbury last summer? I was there with my son.

Hi Timespeedsup. Glad my memory isn't playing me up and that we have met.

Yes, it still makes me happy just thinking about Glastonbury last summer. I haven't stopped going on about it and my nearest and dearest glaze over when I preface a comment with 'When we were at Glastonbury..'

We

There was an unbelievable amount of Victors doing the rounds the Thursday night. But yes I do remember you and your son Anna, and you were IIRR very happy to be finally back at Glasto.

Apart from Tornado Town, new this year, there was supposed to be after-2am things going on last year ie once the dance tent shut down, but it didn't necessarily work out. I think those that wanted to found things to do.

Cheers people

Sorry Perks only just seen this and now I see you've got your ticket anyway. The simple reason for us using Google Checkout in the shop is the merchant fees are cheap so that means more money in the pot for donations.

We are looking for non stewarding staff for before/after the festival and various roles during the festival in exchange for a ticket, if you're interested then email s.booth at springmusic.co.uk Maximum shift is 6 hours a day.

Off to prepare for my first efestivals interview :scenic:

Still umming and ahhing about whether to go.

Are there any other people going on their own? Wouldn't want to be the only 'Billy No Mates' there.

Been trying to find the capacity of BT. I found a figure of 2k from 2010. Is that right?

    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
