Jennings74 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 My groups tickets arrived but as we didn't win any competitions or secret resales we still have two very sad faces and their optimism has all but faded now not yet seen or had any info on BBC Radio competitions but it's going to be easier to win the national lottery than win national radio phone in style comps That Will Young of Pop Idol fame got loads of tickets he posted pics on Twitter ..... Just makes you feel even more depressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I love Glastonbury, I don't want to experience the floods of 2005 or the non stop rain of 2007 again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done very bad weather at festivals and it doesn't really bother me just need a spare change of clothes and lots of bin bags!

There is still a lot of messy people so if you don't mind seeing that I am sure you would have a ball. I believe Camp Bestival is more child friendly. Cheers Jamie Thanks Jamie.

cb4747 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 We could all just go down to the gates and cry. Could dress in black and be mourning our hopes of getting into the festival. Cry really loudly and hope someone gets so fed up with it they let us in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or start a giant conga line and just conga our way in. No one can say no to a conga line 'let us into gast-o! Let us into glast-o' Edited June 12, 2016 by Lucy92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnniMB Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Back from holiday and catching up with the forum. Sorry that no one seems to have been lucky while I was away. Do like the giant conga line idea. May not get us in but it'd be a lot of fun trying lol. Guess there's still a week for BBC radio comps to surface. If not, maybe there's a reason we didn't get tickets this year. Maybe I pissed off the Glasto Gods last year (can't think how but.....). Maybe we'll all get tickets in the first minute of the 2017 sale and have a celebratory drink on the Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andeeroo Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Just a heads up, it was mentioned earlier this morning on 6 music that Steve Lamacq is giving away Glastonbury tickets on his show today, 16:00 - 19:00 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I think BBC are usually the last to put the comps up but I've never really had to pay much attention to them before now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
