mashedonmud Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Have done one festival in May, two in June, two in July and have already booked one for August. I'm keeping my hand in until 2019 as the best way to be festival fit is to keep going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always fascinated me but when you see some of the small acts around Theatre and Circus fields, it's amazing. My logic is that by this time next year I'll have it more than mastered so I won't need to worry about having to get a ticket in October...I can just do my one-woman juggling act in Bella's Field as a performer (I wish). my brother used to juggle fire clubs up near the stone circle somewhere and glow juggle balls he was quite good but did it for the sheer fun of it ... go for it even not as a performer if it brings a smile to peoples faces let us know how you get on and hopefully you can do us a performance at the efest meet in 2019 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost feel like I'm cheating with a reasonably straightforward 4 hours! Last year we left our parking slot at about 4 monday morning and made it back to Hamburg the next evening.

Mr.Tease Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 I had a brief look at tents, my usual one is on the cusp of decay. Does anyone know what sort of time of year there tends to be a tent sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardWaller Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Bought some fruit. Never managed to get into the shape I'd like to for the festival yet, but there's always a first time eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfko Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Set up a cost tracking app for a return flight from Vancouver > London. Moving to Canada for a few years from Novemeber but no way is that a good enough reason to skip Glasto. 2 week holiday back in the UK with Glasto sounds pretty nice..

I've done the same but Calgary>London. I plan to hop down to Greece for a week and relax before the festival! Vancouver is an interesting city with lots to do, welcome (almost) to Canada ?

Only used it for 2 glasto’s before the missus started going and had to upsize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, took me 4 years to learn how to pack away a damned pop up. Always had to get my mates daughter to do it for me ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve raised a few eyebrows with a discreet ‘fill up’ in a crowd and a deposit into my bag, but it beats losing your place for a long drop.

I did some research this week on Fresh and Black tents, including reading the thread on this forum about Fresh and Black tents. I'm still not convinced. The zipper on my last quechua broke after one festival. I wasn't impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got another hour or 2's lie-in compared to everyone else, and it was properly baking that weekend. It was even a popup that you could get back in the (admittedly large) bag without much trouble.
