I actually won my first tickets with a radio station, I had a very vip experience for my first time. I was a lucky bugger! 

How did it feel to go non VIP after that? A bit of a tumble back down to earth I bet ;)

I preferred it. Some of the folks in the hospitality campsite were (dare I say it) a little bit up stuck  ;) all my friends were in the campsites and i missed camping with them, I did manage to sneak one in for a shower though haha.

I've been going to Glastonbury since 1990, hanging around these forums for longer than I care to remember but.... I don't know the Philipa story? I've seen Philipa mentioned on a number of occasions though. Can somebody give me the full story please?

she was trying to entice the fine young efests men folk to her van for toasted cheese sandwiches or something

BTW I love this story telling! More tales of Glastos gone by please! 

Here's another one from me, and I wonder how many other people made this mistake. I bought my tent from Woolies, it looked nice and brightly colored, compact and lightweight, and a reasonable price. Perfect! I didn't want to have that whole 'it's suddenly bigger than the packaging it came in' problem, so I didn't bother opening it before Glasto. We get to Kidney Mead and everyone opens a few beers before turning to the task of setting up our tents. So I'm several beers deep, feeling a little tipsy, and I open up my new tent and... it's tiny. I climb in it to see if maybe it's just a trick of the light, but no, it is TINY. Laying down in it, I could fit my upper body in and that was it. Turns out I'd bought a kid's play tent.

And it wasn't waterproof.

I had a blinding time though. Each night I'd go back and climb 'in' my tent, leaving my wellies on, legs sticking out. By the third night it had partially collapsed. Nothing dampened my spirit. I love Glasto <3

This is truly wonderful! God I love Glastonbury

Nope, not me! Was so funny, I had sent a text to my mate to let her know as she is a huge Fatboy fan. As we approached the entrance in a very deserted Block 9 as it was late afternoon, I spotted her and her gang coming from the opposite direction. "You got my text then?" I said to her. "What text?" she replied, followed by "I haven't even got my phone on me" So it was just amazing coincidence she too was in the right place at the right time! :D

Haha those were the days....my first ticket was from Our Price in Bristol in 1992, day after payday!

I remember popping in there for tickets.

My first ticket was winning a competition through Venue magazine. The best thing about it was I never even entered it but a mate that worked there said my name was chosen at 'random'.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
