pinkartstudent Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Considering there are just 5 weeks until it starts it feels too quiet on the announcement front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkartstudent Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Yeah,much slower than previous years. Can't wait though as it means a week off from work and seeing my family as I live in Surrey I did notice that the Carlsberg cider is a sponsor this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul ™ Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 I was thinking the other day the must be struggling. The tickets with travel deals etc are odd this late on, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothenburg83 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Just looked into pre buying a car park ticket....says you will save £5 as its only £15 online and £20 (£5 more than last year) on the day. but after postage and booking fee you would only save £1.50 from the on the day price! so nae point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbear Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Can't see it being that busy this year in all honesty. A lot of people I know in my age bracket (18-22) have decided not to go this year as they don't reckon it's worth the money. I assume this is the target group for the festival these days so it wouldn't surprise me if ticket sales were down. Hopefully I'm wrong though. Another cheeky announcement soon would definitely get me in more of a festival mood this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothenburg83 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Reckon last year was well down on 2011, just from what I seen, camp site less busy, arena less busy etc Really is a lot less hype this year from previous years! Still hoping for a brilliant weekend though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattrik3 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Definitely more people I know going this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyelo Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I know quite a few who have gone in the past that are not anymore. Maybe it's an age thing but they are either not doing festivals or are going elsewhere(Parklife is popular). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkartstudent Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I hope they announce some small acts soon, some of the highlights of last year were in the small tent that had music from late evening. Wouldnt say no to bastille returning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzy2734 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Surely the fact Ts 20th (however poor the line up) and Glasto was gonna hit other festys bad this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiepolio Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Last few years we've had ash, chic and blondie all announced with four weeks to go so expecting something like that soon. Still very light on "guitar" bands too compared to previous years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddiepolio Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 In my 5 years of going, I think Ash last year may have been the best thing I've seen. I couldn't walk properly until the Thursday after because my calfs were so sore from bouncing around right down the front! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishMetalHead Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 What else was on when Ash were on? I don't remember seeing them, so wondering where we were at instead... Highlights for me last year were Sound of Guns and Pigeon Detectives, excellent sets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muffins Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Good weather has got me super excited. Super looking forward to seeing Redlight and Jackmaster again even though they might not be the biggest names on the line-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
