thrillhouse188 Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Trying to organise a group of around 10, half of whom don't really seem all too clued up/bothered about about the whole process. Buzzing for their group to get tickets and mine to miss out come ticket day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More or less, I have a new place now, but I still need to go to court to try to get some of my money back from the dirty management company! It's been an ordeal to say the least.

With an added strategy of who a) has history of buying tickets and b) which group would be each person's "second pick" for tickets if their group's are already secured. The added nightmare of a few having not officially confirmed means I'm running through various hypothetical permutations. Plus hoping the coach sale will take a few out! Does this sort of behaviour appease the ticket gods? I hope so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also doesn’t help that I have extras in my office who are ‘interested’, but when I explain the process and game plan they just offer up a blank, confused expression!

hannahlmoore Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 I failed last year so surely the Gods will be with me this time right? I'm going to try for coach for the first time too to increase chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire Chris Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Done nothing well, apart from climbing the Tor early in the morning before we drove home after the pilton party, looked towards the festival site in the early morning sun and begged for tickets. So we did nothing very special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watergirl Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Panicked, as I just discovered that coach tickets now go in batches of six as opposed to four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkic Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Absolutely nothing, because there is no such thing as “Ticket Gods”. Yeah I said it.

SouthbanKen Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 I listened to a glastocast yesterday in the car (on my own) and realised quite how much i want tickets so i started shouting "i really want a ticket for next year" - shouted it about 3 times at the top of my voice.

Where was the car? Outside the house with the confused faces of your family pressed against the window? Supermarket car park? Driving up the A1M?

Charm x Im in the same boat. It's been a rough summer since getting back from G and I need this! Im also seeing an enormous amount of posting on Facebook of people asking questions about getting tickets for the first time. I can already smell the carnage and devastation and just hope I'm one of the lucky ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Chris Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 The incredible weather of the last two festivals, the superb bbc coverage and pop acts such as Kylie has really increased interest and broadened the potential customer base. Also I reckon that every year newbies outnumber the older festival goers who drop out. Chuck in the hype of the 50th anniversary and it’s obvious we are in for a manic panic for tickets. Of course if it pours down and is a repeat of 2016 then tickets for 2021might be easier to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
