Glastonbury 2009
- Thread starter beesonthewhatnow
- Start date
are you going for the whole weekend?!
part of me wants to jump for joy, and the other part is frowning at you
well our main slot is on Friday so if it all goes tits up re: my leg, we can - worst case scenario - bail out early and not piss anyone off.
Any idea where you're playing Jefe?
I might be going if there's any joy on ther returned tickets front....
Keep checking regularly, there's been at least two significant batches of extra tickets (returns, I guess) released recently.
well fuck it, we got asked to play so how could we refuse?
Sod the leg, sod being sensible
More details on the official website regarding the "William's Green" area which is replacing Leftfield this year.

i just went to the chemist and the caff, my first trip out on my crutches on my own. It took about 30 minutes each way. So either I see NOTHING at Glastonbury, or I have to get fit fucking fast.
Does anyone have experience of people bumming lifts on gaters and other site vehicles if you wave your crutches at them? the odd trip along the railway line would be a godsend,

You could try emailing/ringing Claire Elsam. She's the disability co-ordinator and if you explain what the situation is you may be able to get some of the suport they offer disabled people - I think they were taling about doing shuttle buses and the like

So, where & when are you playing?? I enjoyed last year.
Oh, you'll get fit fast! You'll be amazed at what you can do a week from now, never mind a month.
My ankle seems to be relapsing a bit, at this rate I'll be taking my crutches with me this year, if only as a precaution. Bet you get around better than I do!
Oh - wear gloves, and really pad out the handles of your crutches or sommat. I got blisters on my palms so deep it took months for them to come out and there was quite a lot of pain to go with that.
cheers

Yay, that's wicked news.
so, erm...
who's playing?
The Wonderstuff.
Assuming you have access to power at Dance backstage, you could rent a leccy chair / scooter. Apparently there's a company that will deliver to the site, and collect afterwards.
