just tried the online sale and it works. 

LE: from what i read on the internet, it looks like the most popular days are selling out before the combi tickets, so probably the foo fighters or radiohead days are the most likely to sell out first.

Bit of a random question.

Does anyone know how close to the festival pre-sale of food/drinks vouchers goes on for? I can't see anything on the website, presumably they will advertise when they will go off sale at some point?

I tried to buy these vouchers several times in the last two weeks prior to the festival but failed.  I mean there was an option to buy them but when I tried it failed and a try again later message appeared.  I dont know if it was on purpose or just a long temporary error.

There are bands I would prefer in higher positions like kasabian, Snow Patrol etc but The Script would be a good option for me over a lot of others

That would literally be hell for me, kasabian/snow patrol/script would lead me to have a mental breakdown.

:huh:

Well have your breakdown somewhere else cos that would be the dream.

Minus snow patrol who no one cares about.

 

Interesting, the only band of those Three I care about is Snow Patrol. The Script have made cringeworthy performances at Werchter before IMO.

Agreed.  I had managed to avoid Snore Patrol at TITP in 2009 ? and timed it to get in after they'd buggered off for a decent spot for Blur.  Sadly Blur almost cancelled and SP kept playing.  I found a small bit of sanctuary in King Tuts watching Pet Shop Boys, which was pretty dire but 1000 times better than watching SP.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
