I'm suspecting that the hunch of when Fontaines Bloc Party and Biffy got mentioned that Biffy are the one not playing as it's just not worth either of their time to book them. Obviously affordable if you are sharing. We don't want to share and for certain reasons need our own tents do would you be able to recommend an option that is inside the hive part at least that would involve leaving a tent at home?   My newer pop up is fine for Glastonbury etc bit it's a big bag and a ballache mostly like to carry over the water. The fact I likely won't have my wheels with me means I need to travel light although one backpack and a set of wheels to carry on board and eurostar in a black bag, then on a train over there and shuttle I wouldn't see an issue. The issue is getting over there on Tuesday evening if I end up at Glastonbury after that finishes lol.

I thought I'd look at what I paid the first time I went in 2013, and am now crying 🤣   I shared a twin hotel room with a friend, which was 5 nights for £80 each! Flights were £160, and the ticket £120. Around £360 in total.   I've just spent nearly three times that this year, and that's still sharing a room. Flights were nearly double, ticket was nearly double, but the real jump was the accommodation, which is nearly five times the price. And that's with somewhere that put their prices up by another £100 per person, the day after I booked!

That has always felt a bit strange. Was shocked they didn't do something like Spurs this year, though of course, only a strict number of shows can come to pass there.

Entirely forgot about Twickers. Not off the top of my head.

People Watching already dipping out of the top ten after one week. The arrival of Christmas and a surprise Kendrick album appears to mean it's going to go AWOL pretty quickly.
