Charm Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Sounds great, I really missed Camplight this year, guessing it will be practically impossible to get one. Charm x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mashedonmud Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Would like to know the costs. I may be pessimistic but could this end up being over priced elitism. Hope I'm wrong. ? I shall trust in Joe, if he's involved in this idea. ? Edited August 27, 2019 by mashedonmud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charm x I reckon they should to be cheaper as they wouldn't (I'm guessing) have the same facilities, near by car parking, showers etc. I'm not hopeful.

Hope so, would be sad to see them at silly prices, Camplight was £160 for a 4 man which I think is pretty fair. Charm x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect them to cost more as they're on-site and not up a bloody great hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although with that comes the fact that you have to park a long way away and lug your stuff further so maybe they'll be a similar price.

drunk pumpkin Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 can't be the same as worthy view as no facilities. Unless they are some how connected to the Tipi field Would love to get one but will settle for a ticket and a bedroll under a bush! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but as I said, I think location is more worth paying for than "facilities" (a burger van and a lukewarm shower?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostdancer1 Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Am I missing something, isn't this basically just Camplight again? Knowing Michael (or at least his usual bluster), someone has probably just said "let's put them around G-O-S and make them the same colours", and it'll be little more than that....

Come to think of it, it might actually *be* Camplight, but with newly bought white & blue tents instead of their previous method of reusing abandoned tents. This tweet from July might refer to a proposal to do just that at Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it more like Worthy View moving into the main site than Camplight? Camplight looked like the rest of the festival and this wont. I fucking hate the idea to be honest.

guypjfreak Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Not good.. Its a lovely view from the end of the pier but all we'll see now are a load of posh Gits looking up at you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shuttlep Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 imagine if all the camping was separated in to pitches., and you arranged your pitch in advance. you had to stay within the pitch. your name is taken for it. you can either take your own tent to the pitch, or arrange for on to be pitched. you don't take your tent home, they know who you are (can't think of an ideal work around for camping in groups) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Pee Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 I am thinking of requesting a couple of Chinooks to circle from 6am on Monday morning mounted with mini-gun and 50mm cannon (uranium tipped rounds). The air load master can keep eyes on from the tail ramp looking out for any reprobates shuffling off sans tent and strafe the fuckin shit out of them. No loss to the food chain. Darwinism wins. Better odds for tickets for next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
