Glastonbury 2007 pt1: the build-up

[Crispy]

Remember if you want to book National Express coach tickets (ie. you bought NORMAL tickets, but still want to travel by coach), then you can get them right now from www.nationalexpress.co.uk - getting there on the first Wednesday coach is essential if you want a decent camping spot

I am so totally gonna get some mad spiritual healing

There's one where they bang a massive gong behind your head whilst you lie on some tie-dye.

 

[GeordieKeith]

I think the first 'sold out' report here was 10.55so over 100,000 ordinary tickets had been booked. At 11.17 there were still 15,000 coach tickets left. Not popular, are they?

I just got through at 1145 - was told they'd actually only sold 50,000 tickets today ("so we don't get rushed off our feet" ?) and another 50,000 will go up at 9am on the 22 April.

Kinda wish I'd known that before - not that it would have made much difference, but I hope she's right, cos I am SERIOUSLY going to kill something at this moment in time.

ps teepee tickets still up for grabs, starting at 1600 knicker ...

Are you sure about that?

I was of the understanding that that sale was for tickets people who returned their tickets for refund before the cut off date.

I have had that And it was lovely.

TP if you feel you really want some of that stuff, you could head to the Mind Body and Spirit festival in May. Its full of that type of therapy/healing.

Me too, but I quizzed her and she reckoned only 50 thou went today - no reason to believe she knew what she was on about, mind, other than she was the officlal representative for ths wonderfully efficient telecomms company.

Just been on the phone. Seetickets said that campervan tix are going back on sale during the week (they'd stopped selling them), and that there "should be quite a lot" of other tix on the 22nd April.

What a fcuked up system - YET AGAIN ! I'd rather they said "SOLD OUT" and that was it for good.
