LizzieRose Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 Hi, made an account just to post on here ahaa, did all of you just get a flat out rejection from festaff? Mine said I haven’t been accepted but they would like to keep my application on hold in case of withdrawals, and they’ve kept my deposit for now. Just trying to assess whether I should get my hopes up or not 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerqueen Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 I've been stressing and thinking and trying to work it out. But my gut instinct (and a little logic) has prevailed and I think I'm going to go for Poo Crew over Shelter. So there is going to be a space at Shelter back in the mix.

Thank you, moves me one down the waiting list! Hoping corona virus fears, people disappointed with the line-up and people choosing fest staff over shelter should mean a few more places too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping corona virus fears, people disappointed with the line-up and people choosing fest staff over shelter should mean a few more places too There has been some discussion on Facebook suggesting more people than first supposed may not pay their balance due to this. I think some people were expecting some sort of really astonishingly fantastic, global superstars all day type of line-up. The talk almost made me think about giving up both my volunteer places and risking the resale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Poo Crew have said that "we may have more spaces available as several bonds are still not paid, we still have people on the reserve list, but that may change.

I'm on the reserve list for poo crew too so fingers crossed. I absolutely love the line-up but it is no different from any other year at this point so if people were (slightly foolishly imo) expecting something different I can see how they'd be disappointed.

Did you contact Shelter? if so the plcae I have just been offered might have been yours, so thanks!

Ax There isn't an efests one but last year I joined the recycling crew from Glasto Worker Bees group on FB on the Tuesday night which was good fun. But an efests one sounds like a good plan too.
