mufcok Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Pretty gutted knowing that I'd usually be setting off tonight. Only a few months til ticket day I guess, once that's passed and (hopefully) a ticket is in the bag, it's plain sailing from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have been lucky. This year was the year of an horrendous fire in one of the big tents. The person you are sharing a tent with had eaten something bad a shit themselves all over your tent. Then the next day when coming up on something very potent you slip and break your leg in several places. On the trip to the hospital you are convinced that you are being taken by skeleton doctors into the bowls of hell to have your soul painfully removed by Satan himself When you return 2 days later you re not fit enough to walk around, you have missed all the bands you wanted to see and are left to see some very poor performance. Then you have to pack up your shit filled tent. You then vow never to return. So I think you have been lucky this year. Next year though is going to be a blinder for you and the best one yet Edited June 19, 2018 by fred quimby 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan_Glasto Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Right about now I should be sitting in the beer garden in The Vanbrugh pub having just arrived in London. Waiting for my mates to meet me when the finish work. I keep thinking, at least you have next year. The I remember I may not even get a ticket!

Simsy Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 This time last year I was in the secret resale thread and having a bit of a breakdown. I "miss" having a Glasto this year, but at least I'm not actually missing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picicata Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Yep, last year was the first I didn't manage to get tickets for despite trying in all four sales. So two years for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Low Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I went to Primavera thinking it would numb the absence. It didn't. I experience each year as if it's my last and perhaps that's what makes Glastonbury so damn special. You never know if you will be lucky enough to get a ticket so when you're there its an incredible privilege and you feel a part of something truly special. That drive out of the gates on Monday morning on to the tarmacked road never gets any easier. "It's only a week. It's only a week. It's only a week"I keep trying to tell myself. (It's definitely not only a week ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homersexual Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Thanks to the beauty that is Spotify, I’ve recently discovered I have a love for Elton John. Must be the gay gene. This time of year always gets to me when there’s no Glastonbury and so my mind’s been a little preoccupied the last week or so with who might be on the bill next year. If Elton doesn’t rock up then there’s no justice in the world. This song is meant for the Pyramid. Sidenote: The new Arctic Monkeys album is about the best thing I’ve heard all year so I hope they rock up next summer. Star Treatment as the sun’s going down... Bliss... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_c Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I'm trying not to think about it, but in doing that all I'm doing is thinking about trying not to think about it. Roll on October, this WILL be the year I get tickets in the original sale. The thought of having to wait until the resale for the fifth time in a row is way too stressful given there was no festival this year.

BlackHole2006 Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I’m not too bad over here. Trying desperately to channel what would be my excitement for Glastonbury into excitement for other things, such as Boomtown. Also avoiding watching any articles or videos or mentions of Glasto. We can do this guys & girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priest17 Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 We should timetable out a 2018 line-up and all watch live videos at the right times over the weekend. Hopefully we choose to show the England game on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrZigster Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Damn. I thought I was meant to be sad next weekend! How did I mess that up? Been thinking that forever. Hopefully I'd be in and set up in Row Mead right now. Probably on second (final) car run. I'm working Friday, Saturday and a night shift on Sunday. Couldn't be more differently extreme. Bollocks.
