How much are the tickets this year and who is headlining. I know I could just go to the site and find out, but I'm lazy ;)

£105

REM and Radiohead are confirmed, and I'm expecting the Red Hot Chilli Peppers to be playing (though nothing confirmed).

I was considering going as I posted here last month or something but have reconsidered. Instead of buying me and the gf tickets and spending a small fortune for corporate rock under the guise of free love I've bought 2 tickets to Rio de Janeiro \o/

Heh, Rio sounds good too.

Glastonbury for me the only time I get to catch up with a lot of my old mates who have moved away. People as coming from Dublin, Glasgow, Essex, all over really.

And £105 for 5 days is just over £20 a day...doesn't seem too bad.;)

Aye but nothing beats Aberystwyth free festival, being camped in wigwam valley for a week eating lentils and chick peas!

My tickets are booked...

I shall mostly be wasted in a field somewhere with my tin and an endless stream of scrumpy like I have done at every glastonbury there has been for the last 10 years. :clap:

Hmm, Think I'll save the £210 it would cost me and buy a flashlinker for myself and some flowers for the missus.

Might go, been once before in '95, but holding in a crap for 5 days is quite a feat..

I'm contemplating it as well. Load of mates goin just a question of if I've got the cash spare what with the smegload of holidays I'm already going on this year.
Nowt wrong with the bogs as far as I found, every single porta-loo I've ever been into at a festival has been spotless, with spare toilet tissue as well :D lucky bastard apparently ;)

Well when I went the portaloo's were the biggest stinking cest pit of doom you have ever seen, with a queue of 50 people waiting to use it.

Thats why you should go to the flushing toilets hidden up on top of the hill.;)

You just need to pick your spot better. Though in the hot weather it can be really grim.

My brother in law just ordered his ticket on line at my place. I'm guessing it wouldn't let you proceed with booking if the tickets were all sold out right? Anyone know?

Will

Guest
The system has overrides for running out...I know because I ordered in the first 5 minutes, and it told me it was out of tickets. I reordered, and it was fine.;)

Guest
Well, Glastonbury is sold out. Tickets are going for about £150 each on ebay at the moment...scarey.

mank!

Guest
The Manics are strongly rumoured to be the closing band on the last night, pity I'm not going :D

Not sure how true this is, because by their own admittal the Manics hate Glastonbury.

Will

Guest
They had the piss taken out of them by Billy Bragg last time they played, so I doubt they will go back. I think REM will take the Sunday night slot anyway.
 
M

mank!

Guest
Yeah, and Nicky hit back at Bragg in a nice style. The Glastonbury they played before the Billy 'twat' Bragg incident they made some comments about it being a shithole, and needs a motorway built over it.

Ergo, they probably won't play.

I think a band that claims to be as political as the Manics do, even goes to visit Cuba to prove its socialist ideals, then insists on its own private portaloo at Glastonbury, deserves all the stick coming to them.;)
 
M

mank!

Guest
Bah, I could defend the Manics all day and you cunts would still slag them off :p
