T in the Park 2013

[Armchair Detective]

Newcastle to Edinburgh is 1.5 hours on a train. You can get off at Waveley station, and walk 5 mins to the bus station and get a shuttle bus direct to T in the Park. That is a piece of piss and you avoid the worst of the traffic because the bus gets the priority routes to the festival.

As for value for money I disagree with you. I looked at the lineup and saw maybe 5 bands, none of which were "must see". In previous years like 2011 I had about 15 though of bands like Foo Fighters, Weezer, Manics, etc who you would pay £30+ each to see.

has there been any updated clashfinders been put out lately im still on the original one

[thewayiam]

Watched it on bbc I player, €20 for wifi for fortnight at my hotel....looked pish...

I'm a lot older than you, my life can't be about only festivals hahaha...

The dumbing down of the masses continues.. I was really disappointed with all the acts, including the monkeys, maybe they lost something not being there...

I hope you enjoyed it.

Weather for T is looking promising

[sevillian03]

I've only been to T in the Park and really want to go to Glasto next year but friends are put off by the distance(from Newcastle) and the sheer amount of traffic and people. Is it all worth it?.

So who would be better to see Alt J or Rihanna? Don't like Beady Eye there pish!

[Gingo]

haha, yeah I'm quite happy about the weather outlook for T to be honest, my one and only time and dry-ish would be ace.

[frankblack]

I think he's talking about Glastonbury!

I'm kind of in the same boat.

This will be my 12th T, but I'm going to try get tickets for Glastonbury next year.

What has always put me off is the size of the place. At T iftwo bands are clashing, you can see a bit of both usually as the stages aren't that far apart. I've always had the impression that at glastonbury, you'd maybe have to pick a stage and sit there all day.

Is that right, or is the distance between stages not as bad as it looks on maps?

[Comfy Bean]

Oh, I was on to say that the Arcadia " rig " is something else. Saw fat boy slim on it after the Rolling Stones. Incredible spectacle so hopefully will bring something to T after the main stages close. One thing to bear in mind. You`ve got to get pretty close or the sound is shit. Not sure if they have volume restrictions but if you wander round after it has started and it is already rammed then you will see lots of fire and lasers but you will hear feck all.

Anyone know what weathers to be like next weekend for T? Can't find any accurate forecasts!

[thewayiam]

Would you never consider going again even if the lineup was excellent?

[Gingo]

no, just because the journey is a mission and glasto offers all i now need. T i doubt will have anything i haven't seen next year.

[ToonArmy9]

Yeah, I was talking about Glasto and i'm convinced that I wan't to try it, just need to convince others now. A festival aproad is also in the plans.

Long term weather forcast for the whole country is good, I just hope its reliable.

In terms of value for money, I guess it depends on how many bands you want to see. There are loads of bands I would pay to see. They easily add up to £300. Add to this the bands I want to see but probably woudn't buy tickets and also the stunning camping factilities, I think it's worth it.

[daraudom]

Anyone else going to the festival alone ? We losers need to unite !

[highjinx79]

Glasto is most def worth it. It blows every other festival out the water. Absolutely amazing atmosphere and so many treats in store. A must for anyone not jst us festival goers..
