Hi guys,

Theres been a total cockup with my tickets and ive only just been able to sort it out (better late than neve i suppose). Anyway ive got to pick my tickets up from the main entrance on the way in, so does this mean I will need to pick them up before I can set my tent up or will I just need them to get into the arena? Any help would be much appreciated!

Looking forward to this weekend! I would love it if the weather was the same as last year - perfect! Im taking my girlfriend who has never camped before, nor has done a festival!

Does anybody know if they sold newspapers last year? I knkow they had the campsite shop but I can't remeber about the papers. Nothing better sitting outside your tent with a brew in your hand and reding a paper in the sun :biggrin:

Hello! I haven't posted since page 40/50 or something far back into May.

I haven't had a chance to get excited or even start buying stuff until yesterday so now I am starting to just figure out a plan.

Maybe I have missed it I have tried to read some of the pages since I last posted but there is so much written (but in a great way) - have i missed any sort of times line up or is that something i will just find out when im there? or has anyone made a halvin type line up checker?

im off to buy things i completely forgot to get yesterday, isn't that always the way?

I started about 6 weeks ago but there was so little known I gave up, pleased I did because since then its changed loads, plus theres still slots for surprise acts and acts still to be put on the line up.

Last year you needed to present your tickets prior to the campsite (thats when you get your wristbands).

For last years Emperors Field, the box office was immediately on entry to the site, not sure about main camping.

But you will deffo need to get your tickets before setting up camp.

Just been looking at accuweather.com and it seems to be mirroring the current conditions around the country....Morecambe is says it's raining & it is.....Leeds it says it's mostly cloudy & it is....Penrith it says its clouds & sun.....Jonny - is it a mix of clouds & sun?

I just have a quick question. I am coming to Kendal Calling with my boyfriend and we have VIP tickets for the 3 days which includes camping. Does anyone know where we can pitch up the tent? I'm confused as it doesn't really clarify on my tickets.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

OK OK weather Gods - I have got walking boots! Now behave please!!!

Thanks STEatT - definitely not moving from glorious Brum yet then! Will probably head north after rush hour tonight to wake up tomorrow with the view from the clifftop at Heasham - which to be fair is always lovely even when it's shit! May take my traininers and have a little run along theseafront to see Eric in the morning.

Not a cloud in the sky here! Anyone got a surefire method of taking weather with you? If I really try I am sure I can bring it!

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
