Weird sponsorship of the year this year is ‘Uber presents All Points East’ where there will be exactly zero chance of getting an Uber ride home! And preaching to the already converted, ‘Audi presents Wilderness’ where 99% of the attendees arrive in their Audi’s 😂 Uber are trying to expand to flights and trains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say vodaphone would be bringing in several connections to site that they will use for the cell towers. https://www.connectixcablingsystems.com/themes/ccs_2019/pdf/Glastonbury.pdf Aaaaaannnd.... they've taken it down suspiciously...

They leave from 2 or 3 designated heliports in manhattan, and if you're running late it's honestly not a bad option if your other option is missing your flight. I've never taken one but it always freaks me out when it comes up as an option on the app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkey twizzler Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 (edited) How confident are people feeling that we'll get something new from Arcadia? I hope not but I'm feeling like there's a chance we're getting same old spider in that field. Before someone has a go I know 'the spider is great for newbies still'. Doesn't stop me wanting to see something new though 😜 Edited April 25 by turkey twizzler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that could also mean they're trying to give themselves as much time as possible to make something new happen and come June they'll have to relent and go back to the Spider-lite...again. I'm choosing to believe the former, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfool01 Posted April 25 Author Report Share Posted April 25 So it seems they are tightening up on crew passes and a photo needs to be submitted in areas where it wasn’t before This will mean that they should be able to prevent many of the pass out ruses and will hopefully mean things are less busy .

Hopefully they’ll do something to adress the gate runners too . Seems to have been more a thing of late . Maybe due to the fact social media means it’s more out there though .

Best chance of success for gate runners is to do it completely naked covered in goose fat. Pretty much zero chance of security getting a grip on you.

Just a question and obviously we all like different things but why do people like silent discos? I’ve done them before at festivals with more noise restrictions and less amplified music late at night but would you choose silent disco over actual sound systems?
