yannymac Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Hi I am looking for a spare camping pass for the weekend (main area) for my cousin who is coming over from the US (by solar powered pedallo). If anyone can help please drop me an email. Cheers Iain iain_mcw@yahoo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
At The Border Guy Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Looks like this could be the first and only Outsider. Apparently only 2500 tickets have been sold meaning the organisers could lose £600000 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rialbyob Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Can the papers be trusted though! I would say their is too much on, festivals/summer concerts/ tickets going on sale for winter concerts. People simple cant afford them all! Im going to outsider , T, Chili's, Foo F, Magic Numbers, Fray, Arcade Fire, Stereophonics, Kings of Leon, Connect, Indian summer.Most of these have been put on sale in the last month or so. Luckly im not having to pay for them all but others not as fortunate have to fork out for fear of missing or simple not go. Ebay tickets become an option then because people cant afford now but come sept/oct may fancy it no tickets available so ebay is the option. Perhaps a rule should be ticket sales 1 month before gigs giving people an oppertunity to buy for today and scammers less time to punt tickets.

thedementedpoppet Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 thatll learn them for puttin it on the same weekend as glasto. bloody numpties. if youre gonna do that, make sure its a centralish belt fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_cosmia Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 the fact that if i wasnt goin to glasto, i was considering this. im sure quite a few others might have been the same. but i guess the amount of scottish festivals this year, plus its northerness has had an affect on sales too.

outtolunch Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 (edited) doing a search on google news found no mention of poor sales only expected traffic chaos and up to 10,000 expected, I expect the 2,500 figure is the tickets already sold with the camping passes and as they have all gone thats not a bad sign. I would expect a lot to attend on day tickets and with the bad weather recently people are holding back from buying early, this happens at other festivals Cornbury being one I was at last year where people were turning up to get a day ticket to see Robert Plant play on the saturday and finding them sold out ( the numpties should have done their homework and checked how many gigs he was playing in the UK and realised that there would be a demand for them ) ps. and look at the sponsers they have a large Whisky company and the EU a bit of a loss first year should not be a problem Edited June 15, 2007 by outtolunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enrico the heretic Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hello. If anyone has a spare couple of seats in a car going south on Sunday night, for my friends who need to get back to Perth, that would be wunderbar. Please let me know. Thanks. Enrico.

feathersaturnfly Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) I'm tempted to go to this (full weekend, camping), mainly for the atmosphere. But I'm chronically indecisive and don't know if it's a great idea, or a pretty poor one (only been to three festivals before, and never alone). Thoughts (please!)? I'll buy you a nice pint of cider, or other drink of your choice, if you assist in the decision making process Edited June 19, 2007 by feathersaturnfly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perthperson Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Same here - I'm not adopting any more kids! I'm going on my own too but would be up for meeting up for a drink on the Friday (that's tomorrow isn't it) I'm happy wandering about randomly on my own though so I wouldn't plan on stalking you throughout the festival!!
