Clashfinder is Back

[halvin]

anyone know if the Family Mahone (avalon) will clash with Neil Diamond?

[r0cky]

I'm really hoping for some firm times for the main stages before updating them. I don't know if I'm waiting in vain or not.

[halvin]

I really do hope they release some firm times, they must surely know by now? The program must be off to the printers soon, if not already, it would take time for the design company to get that knocked up as well.

[mouth]

really like the format halvin. very easy to read. i saw on your above post that you said about sales of official guides. are they not giving them away free this year?

[Winston Legthigh]

Someone mentioned that they may keep them quiet as they don't want people printing them out and reducing their sales of official guides. Not sure how much truth there is there but it would be a shame.

I think the problem with times being pre-announced is that they'll probably be wrong. The Guardian's listings from last year were well off the mark. I wish they hadn't printed them. At least with Clashfinder I know when the times are guesses.

As I said a little further up, the times must be pretty much fixed now, save a few last minute fixes. The official programmes will be fixed and printed or about to be printed. Why do you think the times would be wrong in that case?

I personally would like the times released as soon as they give the green-light to the print run. I find it disappointing that the times are not provided before-hand. I see no reason not to, other than for GFL to piss off it's customers. It means I have to waste precious time at the festival working out the clashes, rather than fixing them in the weeks of work leading up, as I get paid to surf the internet all day!

Yeah, I thought that just after I posted. If the times are good enough for the Guide printers, then they should surely be good enough for us obsessive glastofairians?

[halvin]

The Guide was free last year though - I had two round my neck so I could cover four stages without getting it wet.

Hey, come on, this isn't V (spit, shakes fist in anger etc) we're talking about here, you can pick up free guides virtually everywhere on site.

[beergut100]

I got one at the gate but I didn't see anywhere else giving them away. Was anywhere? I could have done with a second because my first got wet.

yeah info points had them i got loads as i such a waster kept losing them or giving them to resonably pretty ( and that is used in the losest sense) girls. what a wally

[freeak]

As it appears that we wont be getting the complete set times in advance this year, I have gone through the Myspaces of all the bands appearing on the Pyramid, John Peel and Other stage for them. Most bands just list that they are playing at 20:00 but a few do list the actual times that they play. Someone else can hopefully check the other stages this is helpful.

Hopefully this will be helpful to Halvin in making the these stages slightly more accurate.

get your arse back to the top of the pile.

Great info Freeak!!

Halvin! I'm just wondering if you'll be working your magic and adding these to the clashfinder?

I'm also soooo keen to get planning like everyone else seems to be, why can't they release all the stages? Grrrr, sooo frustrating, but then we all know that when we get there it'll change anyway. I've sometimes thought it'd be great to do a Glastonbury by just turning up and wondering round...... which isn't far from the truth really....

Good App!

[halvin]

Good detective work there, freeak. I tried a similar thing a while back but I gave up after the first few 20:00's. Not sure when I get the chance to sort through them, it could be a few days. One thing I haven't mentioned yet is that when I plugged in the 'proper' times for the acoustic tent, the provisional times were pretty much cock-on.

[tlsambo]

Got to be said Halvin your contribution to help everyone's festival run smoothly is invaluable!!!

Please if you get time pop up to the Pyramid Palace and you'll be treated very well, I promise.

The Palace is on the front row of the camping field at the back and to the left (as you look at the crowd from the stage) of the Pyramid field.

you will be rewarded!

Thanks again

Tone
