Haha, well as long as you guys have fun it's alright

I genuinely don't think anyone has been booked in the slot yet. 

All seemed very uncertain last week. Seems it's going to be a last minute addition. 

We'll have to wait and see.

It's not very common here in Italy April fool's so at the first moment I didn't understand really.  

[Gossard]

There is a rule, at least here in Iceland, if you spot a April fools day joke, you don't say anything to inform others and ruin the joke

It wasn't me dear Gossard...I've remarked the fact someone downvote you without a reason.  

 

Edit: everytime you receive a -rep I give you a + because I'm feeling like the Robin Hood of forum good reputation

Damn, I got excited. I couldn't get tickets for Temple of the Dog in Phlily. 

So far I prefer RW lineup than Glasto. There are some bands like Biffy that I'll be seeing in small clubs here in the US. Sad that they are discarded from the lineup.

Guess It's a matter of taste, but I'd take AF or Soad over Ed Sheeran/Katy Perry anytime.

Ok thanks

Hey guys,

I have a practical travel question. I'm coming from Canada for the festival and the last time I went was in 2009, so I'm having trouble remembering how I actually got out of the grounds last time and on to my next destination.

On the day after the festival ends, July 3, I'm going to London. I want to buy a train ticket from Brussels to London that leaves at 10:56 AM, so I'd want to get to Brussels at like 9:30 to be safe. Is it realistic to think I'll get to Brussels by that time? I thought I'd take the festival bus to Leuven station at like 8 AM (assuming they're running) and then take the train from Leuven to Brussels, but is it usually a total shit-show getting out of the festival grounds on the morning after it ends? I just want to make sure I'm actually likely to arrive in Brussels by 9:30 before I book this pretty expensive train ticket to London for 10:56 AM.

Thanks

If you want to be at Brussels at 09:30, dont wait for the festival shuttle at 8 as there will probably be a big queue by then. Keep in mind that the shuttle ride, the wait for the train and the train ride itself will consume ~ one hour. I didnt camp a few years now though,  and it seems that there are less camping areas then before so things might have change.

I think you'll really struggle. I can't rememer how long it is before the train departs but last time I took the Eurostar I had to be there early to "check in", a bit like for a flight.

Because you won't necessarily be able to get on the first shuttle either, I wouldn't be booking a train that early myself. I'd be looking at 2pm onwards to take the stress out of it. If you get to Brussels early you can just chill out have some "real" food after 5 days of festival food!

Just get an earlier train to brussels, they run from about 5am. 

[A Praise Chorus]

Thanks all. I'm glad I didn't buy it without asking. I'll mull it over a bit more.
