You'll have a great time its truly the greatest place on earthFirst Glastonbury - can't wait
I proposed to the OH there last year and we set our wedding date as 22nd June next year specifically so we could go as stage one of our honeymoon so this morning was extra tense

That's fairly impressive I suppose, but it'd be routine for someone like Amazon. It just feels like there should be a better way.
Never mind, got mine and one for the OH anyway!
Glad you got someNever mind, got mine and one for the OH anyway!
Yeah I think the argument from See is that one day a year they have this issue so it would take massive investment to alleviate one issue
Reading some of the forums it does seem they f
ked up their load balancing this morning as one server was being caned and the other was quiet. People were editing their hosts file to make it resolve to the IP of the quiet server and getting in, this spread all over twitter and See realised, fixed it and that's why the first half of tickets took about 1hr15 and the rest about 25 mins as loads of people got accessSWAT78 said:
Got 6 for me and some mates about 15 mins before they sold out, so feeling pretty lucky! Will be my first one after 8 Readings, and I'm expecting it to be awesome!
You won't be disappointedLittle tip for you, there is a hill, its a huge hill you can't miss it, normally has a Glastonbury sign on the top, head up there Weds or Thurs evening about 6ish to watch the sun go down, its a great atmos everyone cheers the sunset and is really nice, however and this is the key bit
As you go up don't look back, not even once don't be tempted, wait til you get to the top and only then look back its a view like no other

Didnt get in, 1.40hr of sitting f5ing the fk out of my laptop, refreshing my phone and calling up a constantly busy line. stty.
There will be a resale in April when people who paid deposits don't take them up, there were appx 5000 last year, its all very ACT dependant a lot of the time though as people don't quite understand that Glasto isn't really about the Actsk out of my laptop, refreshing my phone and calling up a constantly busy line. stty.It will cease to be an issue in 3-4 years I think
Glasto never always used to sell out, festivals as a whole have been enjoying a boom and attracting a whole new generation, ask any seasoned festival goer and the majority will say Glasto is the daddy, ergo it becomes the De facto tick list festival
Once people have ticked it off and as the economy recovers and people have the money again to choose guaranteed sunshine in Shagaluf or Ibifa the prospect of risking a mud bath at G will be less appealing and as such it will return to the hardcore fans
