View Full Version : Glastonbury
Lil' al Mar 31, 2004, 12:41 I probably shouldn't do this as it decreases my chance of getting through but I'm a kind hearted lass so I thought I'd share,
Glastonbury Ticket Hotline:
0870 830 2004
Tickets go on sale 01/04 at 8pm- which is a weird time methinks but there you go.
Maybe see some of you there.

butchspangly Mar 31, 2004, 13:17 oh, also from www.aloud.com
Dazzla Mar 31, 2004, 13:54 Jump the fence.
Do it.
UnoChild Mar 31, 2004, 13:55 Seen the size of the bloody fence now? Tis huge.
Newvrovski Mar 31, 2004, 14:03 If there's enough people going, we should designate an official dogbomb tent and have stuff going on in it (besides sleeping and drug taking) Would be a good place to Meet and Veg

But it has underneaths and weak spots.
I have never paid for a ticket for Glastonbury. Been seven times.

humbug

hmmm....this is the man calling people 'tight' for not contributing to dogbomb, eh? :)

Fuckem. If I thought it would make the festival better, I'd pay. From what I've seen, it gets worse every time they clamp down further on non-payers.
And they make *millions* from the stallholders, too.
Lil' al Mar 31, 2004, 15:16 The fence goes about as far under the ground as it does over it- and there's dogs that chase you and will tear you to shreads if they catch you- I'm buying a ticket :(

no, that was me. I won't be going to Glastonbury either, on account of my abroadness.
Fuck you all.
Am I the only one who thinks Glastonbury is a pile of steaming horse shit? Jesus WANKED it's full of fucking pikeys and students, and all the bands are fucking RUBBISH.
Sleep in a tent and take drugs? You must be FUCKING joking. Fucktards.
It's WANK.

Myth 1. In fact, I've been under it several times. It goes under the ground about a foot and a half. It would cost a lot more than a million quid to embed a fence fifteen feet under the ground.
and there's dogs that chase you and will tear you to shreads if they catch you- I'm buying a ticket :(
Myth 2. Just because it's Glastonbury that doesn't mean that they're allowed to set dogs on you.
zed247 Mar 31, 2004, 15:29 Yes, it gets worse and worse, but I cannot control the urge to drag myself there and over the fence, like seven times :)
....and WoW would have started his rant with - Fuck you all.
GuinnessMeister Mar 31, 2004, 15:36 You are of course correct - I have edited my imitation to take this into account.
Never been, don't have the desire to. I would seriously consider doing the fence: I refuse to pay that much money for a muddy field, slashed tents, billions of students having epiphanic experiances, Calcutta style portaloos and being squashed in a crowd.
World Of Weird Mar 31, 2004, 16:08 Fuck you FUCKING all!
I'd NEVER go to a festival - I suffer from claustrophobia.
So spread that on your parkin and munch it!
Alex the Large Apr 1, 2004, 00:51 I ain't going on principle. There's absolutely no way I'm giving that fucktard McCartney a fucking penny of my hard-earned cash. Fuck that.
daidavies Apr 1, 2004, 00:58 Watching a band at a festival is so different to seeing their own show when they're on tour.
Glastonbury is the McDonalds/Coca Cola/Sun Newspaper of the festival world.

Perfectly put, sir. But try telling certain patronizing bastards on this board that. Naming no names.
(Clue - he looks like a fucking hippy and his only friend is a face he draws on his hand. I've said enough!)

You should have been there when my mate Andy actually bought that fucking awful WINGSPAN compilation and put it on the CD player at a party. The piss was ripped out of him with almighty force.

By you no doubt, who seems to be absolutely incredulous that someone may have an opinion that differs from your own.

"Everyone's entitled to their opinion".
What a load of fucking cobblers that is.
The argument kind of falls apart when you read Richard Littlejohn's column, or see a Bernard Manning video.

I used to love Glastonbury. It was at exactly the right time of year, exactly the right place and attracted ace people. well, mainly, anyway. It's been closed up now, pretty much, by profiteers. A shame. I'd still go if someone gave me a ticket though.
Glastonbury used to be the best festival in the world bar none. When they started letting the police in to arrest people for smoking a bit of weed, that was the end.
The only tickets I ever bought which was the year before last I sold on to a London Ponce for a ridiculous amount of money.
Now it's like having a corporate cock rammed up your ass while you say please sir can I have some more.
Newvrovski Apr 1, 2004, 19:38 Damned engaged Phone Lines. Gnnnnrrrrr!
Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:36 STILL ENGAGED AT 22.36
Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:39 Does anyone have a ticket to sell? :(
Dogsemtex Apr 1, 2004, 21:39 Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep...................
Alex the Large Apr 1, 2004, 21:40 Go to Reading instead this year. It's got *some* better bands, it's cheaper, it's over a Bank Holiday weekend, and the tickets are STILL available.
AND you don't have to suffer the indignity of paying hard cash to McCartney only to have your Saturday night completely ruined by 120,000 people in a field all going "Laaaa la la la-la-la-laaaaaaa la-la-la-laaaaaaa Ha-ay Jooooood".
Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:41 I actually got through to the 'thank you for calling- all lines are engaged' a couple of times- woo hoo.

Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:48 hee hee - hadjust spotted that one before i read your post- more bloody chance of getting in with those than getting through on the phone.
Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:50 at what time is everybody else going to give up trying?
Dogsemtex Apr 1, 2004, 21:52 No work for me tomorrow so I'm gonna keep on going!
Lil' al Apr 1, 2004, 21:59 me too- good luck mate.

This Glasto ticket thing is a fuckin farse.
Has anyone managed to get through?
My mate in Leeds was going through the same experience, we called eachother now and again just for some human contact to break the dull monotony of
beep beep beep beep
People say they remember where they were when Kennedy was shot/The tories got turfed out of government. Well, I certainly fuckin know where I was when Glasto 2004 tickets went on sale.
Glued to the fuckin phone!
I feel entirely sane Back to the beeps.
Anyone with similar experiences post em here

Heheh.
A metaphor for the 21st century - straining at the leash, trampling each other for a taste of corporate semen.
For something you could probably get for free if you had the bollocks to take it.
GuinnessMeister Apr 2, 2004, 10:10 Merged Newrovski's thread with the main Glastonbury one
Dogsemtex Apr 2, 2004, 11:04 I've given up trying now, none of my mates can get through either so what's the point?
Gutted:(
Look, it's really not so bad, The bands are shit this year anyway. Just travel down regardless and if you don't get in over the fence, just go to one of the parties outside.
By the time you finished ingesting drugs you won't care anyway :)
UnoChild Apr 2, 2004, 11:17 I tell thee, V Festival is the one to go to this year. Best line-up of all of them so far...
returnofthemac Apr 2, 2004, 11:30 No-one i know can get through. No-one I know knows anyone who can get through - on website or phone. I tried at 5am and couldnt get through. Must've made 1000 phone calls now.
And my phone doesnt even have a re-dial button :D
Newvrovski Apr 2, 2004, 13:24 Hoax, Big fuckin elaborate hoax.
April the 1st they went on sale. Did no one tell that Eaves prick that yer not allowed to do April Fools anymore after midday.
Does anyone know anyone whoes managed to get through?
Thats because there's no one there.
HOAX!
neildeal Apr 2, 2004, 14:52 here's the reason:

Newvrovski Apr 2, 2004, 14:56 Propaganda you mean
HOAX
Lil' al Apr 2, 2004, 15:50 try this number- 01159 129139 apparently people have had more luck with it. i too know nobody who has managed to get through though.
Lil' al Apr 2, 2004, 16:19 Fuck it- V it is- Eavis can go fuck himself.
Alex the Large Apr 2, 2004, 16:28 I'd recommend Reading instead. Mind you, V has got that snazzy carpet thing that stops it turning into a mudbath.
Sid Fiddler Apr 2, 2004, 16:31 I could do with one of those carpets in my living room on a good Saturday night!

Have never been to V + athlete are playing so may be able to get a lift or something!
Flip Gubbins Apr 2, 2004, 22:12 I just refuse to believe that you´re all actually clammering to get tickets for this completely unimaginative and thorughly tired old lineup...I just hope you want in for the atmosphere and not for the bands... If so, just say it! Why not storm stonehenge and get something decent on the ghetto-blaster?..At least that would be free...And honest!
Flip Gubbins Apr 3, 2004, 06:49 ...Or Whatever, But "Sir" Paul and bleedin´ Oasis... Good grief!
Cries of " Let´s go and see Heart instead!"
returnofthemac Apr 3, 2004, 07:39 Mccartneys great - i'd fucking love to see him. I hope it fucking pisses it down and Eavis slips in the mud and breaks his fucking neck. The slaphead hippy hick farmer pikey twaaaat!
Alex the Large Apr 9, 2004, 00:27 Whisper this one, folks...
Oasis are gonna pull out. What a shame, eh?!
Lil' al Apr 9, 2004, 10:09 Alex the Large spouted:

Alex the Large Apr 10, 2004, 15:35 Wonder if this'll mean a flood of returned tickets as all the baseball cap wearing chavs demand their cash back?
I've never liked the look of Glasto, All Tomorrow's Parties it is.
For now though, I'm looking at Oxegen (used to be Witnness...the Irish one).
