We need to collect how many people are trying for in the resale as well:

1) how many tickets did you get?

2) how many going back in?

3) how many do you need in the resale?

 

1) 5

2) 0-1

3) 5-7

 

then we can do stats and graphs and everything !!

2-0

But that changes on an almost daily basis as work fannies about with you will be here, you will be elsewhere, actually you will be here, oh sod it you will be elsewhere...

Told them If they havent made their mind up by next Friday it stays as 2-0 and they can fly me back if Im elsewhere!

MWe're currently siting at a return rate of just less than 12.5%

 

im guessing that most people on this are a bit more dedicated so the amount returned will be slightly more (Im a glass half full type of guy)

Going by that theory im also going to say that theryll be less of the general public trying to get resale tickets than indicated on here so.....

we're more or less guaranteed tickets :D

I still have no idea if I am putting one back or trying for another as family wedding still up in the air. Am busting to ask the person outright if he's calling it off but it would be the height of selfishness.

Had a Glastonbury dream last night, its getting to me.

I had a Glastonbury dream as well last night.

I just vaguely remember the line up being announced and for some weird reason the only act i can remember of it was Afrojack?? i'm not even a fan.

When i woke up i instinctively reached for my phone to check if the line up was out!!

I did a poll on here which got answered by about 400 people after the main sale. 54% of people were successful, 23% of peoples friends got tickets for them, 4% had someone on Facebook/glasto chat succeed for them and 19% were unsuccessful and didn't manage to get tickets.

Obviously the usual confounding factors would apply (I'd imagine those posting on here generally would be a bit more savvy with the process, would definitely be trying themselves etc), but if we assume those would remain constant, would be interesting to do a poll on here after resale....

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
