stuartbert two hats Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 So what's left? I can only think of: Finishing Other PA + screens Blues + Rumshack in Shangri-La FLAGS I'm sure I've missed a few other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather90 Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 I'm seriously impressed by how quickly they build the entire site. This time last week there was barely anything up. Honestly it takes my mum longer to prepare for feeding 12 at Christmas. Bet Michael isn't running round shouting at Emily that the skirting boards are a mess either...

The food stalls and shops generally go in one or two days before gates open. Presumably because they're all profit making commercial entities, it doesn't make much sense for them to be set up for a week not generating any cash.

I should have added some sort of emoticon. The oddest thing for me is the mixing desks etc - I'm sure they normally go up earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats when the really interesting stuff starts! The site build must be easy compared with the logistics of running the actual festival. Supplying all those traders with the food they sell, getting rid of the waste, making sure the water works and doesn't make people ill, the electricity doesn't cut, the generators have enough fuel, and a thousand other things I can't even imagine to keep a party for almost 200,000 people going for nearly a week! It's mind boggling when you think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Your probably correct. All years kinda merge into one when Glastonbury is concerened. I've lost bets on when I thought things happened. Wonder why that is....
