Fuck it. Starting to get over the fact I lucked out last Sunday and my daughter decided she wanted this very Pyramid Stage looking bag of mixed rice and veg for tea. Brings it all back now 

I was over it by Tuesday and plotting how I am going get in by Wednesday. Even the 6 month wait till April has worked in my favour ad it will give me the opportunity to save some cash, which I may need. All options still open at the minute.

Bag of rice means pain now but joy next April.

The numbers are from the license as listed on mendip county council and are a public record, can’t remember where I heard they keep some back fir the resale but the site capacity is 203000 take away 100000 general admission and 15000 coach gives you 88000 , 63000 from workers/ artists and there is 15000 left over , 

So there could be the best part of 20000 going back in the hat?

Mate I am going. By what ever means,  I will be in there. Even if that means I live off beans on toast till next June and save every penny to buy one of them overpriced hospitality tickets, I will be in there.

Hopefully I get a ticket in the coach resale, just to calm the nerves a little. I am going though. No doubt about it.

April looks a bit more positive now eh , that said , that’s a little more than how many coach tickets sold in the first wave and they went quickly, and last year the GA resale sold out in 8 mins.

Haha I love the spirit, it’s brilliant mate. I need to borrow some of that, we will be there especially with our Google Sheet details. How can we not.

That's the one I seen mate. Think it was £2400 with VAT. That is a last, last, last resort. I am not rich by any means, just a working class Mancinian.  Yet I would sacrifice everything if it meant I cold go next year. I am going to volunteer as well, but hopefully we will all get sorted in the resale.

[NaturalWine]

Morning all, hope the weekend was pleasant enough. Just drinking a ridiculously expensive coffee, I need to break that habit.

Halloween soon, who’s going out? I’ve got Oktoberfest next Friday which will be boozy

Ahh yes.. Halloween. The night where I stay indoors, turn all the lights off and tell the Mrs and kids not to answer the door for any reason at all. 

I remember not answering my door on Halloween a couple of years ago. The bell must have rung for a good 4 or 5 minutes. Then my phone rang. It was my mum

’ I’m outside can you open the door please’

Im defo going to hell! And clearly no longer in her will...

 

Morning all..

[Cooter]

Morning club members. Think the depressing shock factor is fading a little now thank goodness. Even watched some of that Showdown at Glasto.

Er mmm halloween, can't wait!

[brettredmayne]

I keep having repeated nightmares around not getting tickets or not getting into the festival.

Genuinely think I need real help, April seems so far away

Impossible to give a definitive answer as there's so much personal preference involved, for example I'd absolutely hate working on a bar or litter picking but others love it.

But generally speaking - I have huge issues with / would never work for Festaff due to some of their policies specifically holding your passport, and charging people an "admin fee" when they're already getting paid by the Festival for your work (and unlike most groups it's not even like the money is going to charity). But honestly, purely in terms of roles Wristbanding seems to be about the easiest and has largely front loaded and day time shifts so you're unlikely to miss much music or be stood there overnight.

So yeah, if someone else (MyCause?) gets the wristbanding contract this year then them. If they keep the contract and the things I mentioned don't bother you then Festaff. Otherwise pick a company based on which role you want to do.

Thanks and yeah I’ve worked with MyCause a few times. They are doing G but I don’t think they’ll have many spaces available. But that’s my first choice

Yes, but to a house party - the money-saving-for-glastobury option  Just turn up with one big bottle of spirits and a few ciders and you're good to go=

This is a cut n paste from me dip CC license.

The breakdown of the proposed attendance figure is as follows:
 Public weekend tickets to remain at a maximum of 135,000 over the next ten
years
 Sunday tickets to remain at 5,000 over the next ten years
 Staff/complimentary/performer passes to increase by 25,500 to a maximum
63,000 over the next ten years

So 100,000 gone but 135,000 max would mean 35,000 going back in the pot minimum.

say 1/10 dropping out (yeah right!) would put it too 45,000. Which is slightly under half of what get sold on T Day. 

Surely then the number of staff tickets available doesn’t matter if this is the case due to a maximum of 135,000 general admission?

My Halloween is gonna be spent doing some press coverage for the o2 blues fest! Looking forward to John fogerty and counting crows. 

Im hoping it will alleviate some of the symptoms of no G ticket.

Is there not 15000 coach tickets to take into consideration as well, out of the initial 135000?

I got see it being as high 45000 back in the pot. I would be gobsmacked at 30000.

[andyb66]

You're right. I was trying to show that the number of staff/artists tickets has no affect on the number of resale tickets due to the cap at 135,00.

So yeah as was previously mentioned 15,000 tickets remain to be sold.
