anYoNe else?

Thanks!

We are

[Better Late...]

And so am I

[Velvet Overground]

Got an early bird for EOTR 2012 - but didn't get a joint one including NDH as well.

I am assuming they will sell stand-alone tickets for NDH after the Early Birds have sold out? I think we'll probably go to NDH (kinda hoping it'll be a bit like early EOTRs - we've been going since 2008) but need to sort out finances and find out a bit more info first!

359 days to go...

[Infinite Jest]

I had my doubts and it took me all of 6 or 7 hours to decide to come, this time (Last year I had my tickets by 9.15 after they went on sale at 9....the festival's in decline, I tell you! )

So that's me + Ms Jest for both.

[Tom75]

Yup, me and the wife will be going to both. Would love it if NDH was more of a folk/country thing, moderate size artists like Justin Townes Earle would be fantastic.

And the Felice Brothers headlining please

In for both. Good chance family will follow to Welbeck.

Just checked + EOTR early birds @ £130 now sold out, full price £150.

I would absolutely love to book early bird tickets but it's just too much money in one go for me - I have to save every year for my ticket because I'm on a really low wage. I really don't begrudge the final price because I love EoTR and the ticket price is worth every penny BUT I wish there was some kind of lay-away scheme, I've volunteered in the knitting tent at Camp Bestival for the past few years and saw on their website that they run a similar scheme so if it works for them....I'd love to secure a ticket and I could probably stretch to an initial holding deposit of £50-75 and then I could split the remainder over four or five payments.

Just thinking outloud really....

[SweepingTheNation]

EOTR early birds sold out in five hours, four less than last year (though there's still some double header early birds, oddly) They now seem to have full price on sale as well as seperate NDH early birds for £89.

Just in for EOTR. Got my ticket before they even managed to post their Facebook status / Tweet.

Would love to do NDH as well, but I've got an expensive year next (one trip to Florida with the family and a trip to New York to celebrate my 10 year wedding anniversary) so can't do it all.

It's a proud achievement!

Just EOTR at the mo, but will keep t'other one in mind.

Travelling for any more than an hour on the monday after a festival is enough to put me off going, so I think I'll stay local!

Unless the line up is sufficient to temp me North.

EOTR + NDH for Nige + I. An increase of 1 fest per year for 3 years, by 2020 we might have caught up with Geof!!!

Yup, me and the wife will be going to both. Would love it if NDH was more of a folk/country thing, moderate size artists like Justin Townes Earle would be fantastic.

Shall be getting NDH tickets for sure - birthday next month, so ideal! Plus, it's only an hour up the road. It's a toss up between Green Man and EOTR though for the 2nd festival.

[talulah]

In for NDH - travel distance is about the same for me and I have a friend in Nottingham who wanted to come to EOTR this year but couldn't make it, so she's happy. Will see what the line up is for EOTR before making a decision this time.

[Maoster]

Waiting for line up information for both EOTR and NDH before buying, otherwise will be GM for me next Year.

[perfectpassion]

Got EoTR but prob do GM as well

[baroquepop]

Just found out I had £250 sitting in my Paypal account. Not any longer! £150 for EOTR or £210 with NDH, made me realise there was no point in delaying.

[ljsawyer]

Nope, I always wait for the line-up first before deciding to go. Like others, I'm considering Green Man in addition to or maybe even as a possible alternative to End of the Road due to the demise of Truck.

Thanks for the post Riverlodge - some interesting comments as well, along the lines of:

"I've been to Reading and Leeds a couple of times before, but hadn't planned to go this year. I ended up nabbing a weekend ticket for £100 a few days before it started from some poor newly-unemployed in Ebay . I think i might stick to leaving it to the last minute for the future as with demand being a bit lower, it's easier to get a good last minute price, although i do fancy going to End of The Road next year, and that one does seem to be popular."
