Throws off my whole game when people do it. At the very least your rep should go to -99,999. What if I add one? I'll settle for -49,999.

I was strangely out of sorts yesterday when I contemplated changing it to something more original like all you other dudes rather than having the most boring user name on here. But I have now decided that by the very fact it’s boring it stands out as being original. So it won’t change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think yours is actually boring tbh as I recognise it every time I see it With Liverpools loss today a announcement this week would certainly cheer me up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I however wish I picked something slightly more audible/distinctive. At least I have a creative icon in my photo of The Park area😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only change our minds through outlandish posts and buying me pints at this point. Mines my last name and my favourite number, yet I've built up a solid brand of jokes that don't land, predictions that don't land, and just a general anonymity. But it's my anonymity. You won't see me at the meet but you won't get rid of me on here. I've forgotten my original point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 Can’t imagine any announcements at this point. It may have been scheduled, but I think Coronavirus will push back any announcements until the situation is a bit clearer. Then it’ll accompany an announcement about the festival to manage everyone’s expectations just prior to balance payment week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really cant see coronavirus affecting the date that much though, swine flu was at a similar rate in 09/10 and it didn’t seem to affect either of those instalments of the festival from what I’ve looked at. You might be right though, I just hope you aren’t! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other festivals don’t have deposit schemes and a set window to pay ticket balances. That said, we’re into March now so not long to go at all.

zeppelin Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 One thing I don't understand is why Glastonbury don't open up the balance window earlier or not have one at all. I'd have probably paid already and surely the festival would be better off with our money in the bank sooner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are also smaller festivals where returning all the monies could have even bigger implications on their futures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right though, I just hope you aren’t! Do you think it's because a headliner has dropped out. And do you think it's to early for the lineup to be dropped.

The default is that it will happen, and I can’t see why it wouldn’t other than the government banning large gatherings and hopefully it won’t come to that in the UK.
