1) They usually make some comment about all the mud

2) followed by some sort of comment about the headliners and whatever the press have been saying about them

3) They very quickly get bored as I proceed to spend the next 30 minutes ranting on about how great the festival is and how it's not always muddy and it's not all about the headliners :)

Unless it's my father in law, in which case 1 & 2 followed by me spending the next 30 minutes trying to figure out how to stop him going on about how he was there in '71

If they are someone I think should go, and would appreciate it , I will spend as long as is necessary trying to talk them into it.

I would go out of my way to help, as others have helped me ( C & E i'm forever in you debt!) Otherwise I will simply reply " yes, your probably right."

I watched the DVD last night with the interviews with the festival goers, Tattoo Man sums it up completely, No judging, you, no pidgeon holing people, acceptance and a great vibe of people that are there. It's a shame that some people dont get it and worse, try to put a negative spin on it.

Thank you for posting your replies, it's this forum and support for the festival goers that make me smile :D

BTW my favourite interview is the Scottish Punk, who has a way with words ;) I absolutely have fallen in love with him :D

    • My wife works for a music company, they have an allocation already.  They run a ballot for it early next year. 
    • This is my guess too.    2028 festival breaks the £400 barrier. 
    • Yeah I did spot that AXS had more available for the O2 shows Muse are doing, though I think that comes with the territory of AXS now being the venue's primary ticket selling platform.    My instinct remains they'll probably still play to a big crowd on the night - sales were similarly slow in 2023 but videos of those gigs showed the venue looking pretty much full. Equally it probably would be sold out if the pricing was even just slightly less ridiculous. Shave up to £50 off some of these categories and I think that would've got people to go with it. 
    • Some are definitely already there with that and with another round of inflation looking like it's on the way, it certainly locks that in. And I say that as someone who also isn't willing to break the £100 marker.
