London is me nearest, but I’m on the East Sussex coast so I’d like to pick Brighton.

 

having Leicester, Coventry and Nottingham feels a bit midlands overkill, they’re all essentially the same place 🤣🤣🤣

Eh?

Brighton is just a suburb of That London anyway.

Same with Leeds and Bradford. Culturally different places but geographically there literally isn’t anything between them.

That's the same as saying Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds are all essentially the same place!

Northern places with varying accents and unpleasant football teams (but, to be fair, some thoroughly excellent pubs!)

Now that is fighting talk. 
 

I’ll see you outside. 

They're not - it was just an example. I'm pretty nomadic, to be fair - I've lived in Oxfordshire, Birmingham - and am now in between Notts and Lincs (and yes, it's fucking boring here for the most part!)

North Manchester: M60; M6; M5; thru Bristol and down the A37. Stopping close by on the Monday night. 
 

Best part of the journey is somewhere like Gloucester way when you start to see obvious signs of others heading the same way.

Sedgemoor services is mobbed with folk heading to the festival, a great sight to behold! The last services before J23 and the turn off to Glastonbury.

Typical southerner. If you played proper rugby you’d understand the north 😂

Not all of us Northerners are ground shaggers. It’s only a very small corridor off the M62.

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
