What's the deal with hospitality tickets where it says photo id required.

I think they are pre checked with a name the week before. But whether you'd have to show an ID with the same name on it, possibly. Where have you found one, not from a twat on Instagram I hope?

[markian]

No someone on twitter. It's gone now anyway. Was legit too, could cry.

In slightly more positive news, my friends have packed me a tent with them so if the ticket does arrive, I've got one less thing to travel down with.

I thought the reasons for additional security was to prevent any attacks on the festival?

 

By the way the thead hasn't been hijacked (correct spelling) by anyone. It's mostly the same group of people that have been here for almost 2 months.

I've been on this thread for two years lol unsuccessful both years.

It should come tomorrow. Should being the operative word.

Almost half tempted to ask someone on the secret resale WhatsApp group if they'll do the epo wristband sliparoo but wouldn't want to jeopardise their festival

Mate, most people here won't be going illegally, because most of the options thrown up aren't legit. As for questioning the ethics of the couple of hundred bunking in each year, head up the Circle at 1am on Thursday morning and see where your litigiousness gets you. Basically, chill the fuck out. 

 

I'm going to Spain. 

I am totally chilled out and am just voicing an opinion. I just find it odd that so many people talk about the whole spirit of Glastonbury, don't pee on the land, respect the farm type stuff etc, but as soon as they find themselves ticketless they soon forget those morals and start begging for an illegal way in.

So at one brief point today I had a performer ticket in my name but that fell through.   I do have the genuine offer of another dude's ticket but - although Sea Glass's wording is poor - he has a legit point.  I'd already turned down a ticket that actually looked like me 15 years ago on the basis that I'm dark-skinned and therefore possible to have a little more gate attention in the current climate (I've been 15 times before, always walked straight in, no searches or anything, no I don't have a beard!).  And turning up on a Friday is my only choice so there is unlikely to be much queuing and pressure on the gate staff to get people through quickly.

The ticket I've been offered is from a black dude but we're different shades - think his strong coffee vs my medium tea .  What should I do?  ARGH.

Claim you have that skin whiting disease/disorder/condition that Micheal Jackson had/has

Or maybe I could black up like Robert Downey Jr in Tropic Thunder.

A bit like the  good old days then when people jumped the fence even if tickets was still available , always somebody who wants to get in and will get in , good luck to em all

On that note, and speaking about Glasto spirit, in Eavis's own words "bunk in"

Busy. Walk with confidence and a smile.

 

You have a tracking number so something must be on its way!

"Land owner Michael Eavis has said that while he has enjoyed being rich beyond his wildest dreams, the festival has suffered since people stopped trying to bunk in.  “The whole things turned into a giant outdoor oxford university halls of residence.""

hmm

I'm absolutely gutted, just missed out on 2x hospitality tickets coz I dragged my heels and was sceptical at the price. Plus it took me 20mins to talk a mate round. Think that was my last chance  :-(

The Glastonbury spirit is about the camaraderie, friendship and support int his thread over the last 8 weeks - not some no mark troll coming in here telling people what they should and shouldnt do. 

This is Glastonbury we're talking about here. Short of fucking someone else over - you have a way of getting in  - you use it.

You're god damn right.

Anyone know how Village tickets work?  Just spoke with someone who said he has a village ticket with his photo on, but he's entitled to transfer it and take other people in - hence he would take me in, then receive payment.  Hmm

I hope your opinion keeps you warm at night.

Dark humor can be the best, My brother is disabled spina biffida always joking about his disability, but according to the Government he was abled bodied  last year while we was fighting for his PIP to be reinstated.... often joke about the summer he could walk, run, hop, jump and give me (little sister) piggy backs!

Chap at the mini tescos end of my road has it, you look at his hands and forearms see a white person with moles yet rest of skin (on show he does not stand there naked) is a black man, its most odd/confusing! xx

Man I should of asked Micheal when I meet him in 2014, for a lifetime ticket instead of being star struck and muttering thank you a hundred times!

I should be entitled (god hate that word no one is entitled to anything) to a lifetime ticket, my argument is its my birthday on Friday (23rd June)

Micheal if you are reading this xxx

So just caught up on the last few pages and I'd just like to get serious for a short moment. I saw the poo crew post and read the following replies saying that it would be a step too far for people. I'd just like to say that it's a way into the festival! If it's too much for you then fair enough but it's great you're all thinking about what it entails. Somebody has to do this (literally) shit job and next time you're at the festival bear this in mind and try to leave the long drops in at least the same if not better state than you find them.

Makes a shit job slightly better for the people that do have to do it so they may enjoy their festival too!

I respect the poo crew and do my best to treat the loos like my own. Just don't want to do it ok. I'm 90% certain I will miss GF2017 now and can handle that.

I'm a tough old cookie but that LD smell is a killer in cold weather.

you have to have humour especially as mine is female.. my grandson  has it too and he is mixed race ... it's just something that we are used to and have spent many fun days picking out maps and other rude Images  drawing on her skin .. its not life threatening and she has had it all her life... it gets worse but so slowly so we never notice... others do though 

My husband has had an internal defibrillator due to a big heart attack at 24 and he gets ribbed mercilessly  ... keep telling him to shove something in the microwave for me
