Are you going this year?

[kev1664]

I thought the general consensus was that the crowd was getting better in the last few years.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

There are enough bands to keep me happy over the weekend (just) but the atmosphere was awful last year & the cynic in me says it will only get worse this year due to a certain number of Eminem fans.

I'm still deciding though, so I may end up going.

Just managed to get two weekend tickets for face value; I am so, so happy

Less twattish I'd say. Worse taste in music.

[kaosmark2]

But I'm going this year and I'm a right twat with a good taste in music

[Com Truise]

Oh well it seems like an inappropriate time to point out I just spotted Liam Fray tickets I remember you were looking out for on Scarlet Mist.

[jump]

some of us have half decent tastes in music

[Muppetmark]

Didn't you learn from robMUFC96's mistake to not have crap muisc in your sig when boasting about having good taste?

When you volunteer at a festival do you have to pay the £200 beforehand and then get it back after? I've seen they do this at some places. I was hoping to volunteer at a couple next year but I wouldn't have the money to do that if I was going to be paying outright for one or two as well. I was hoping to pay for two (eg. Leeds and Glastonbury) and then volunteer at a couple more.

What's wrong with Springsteen? I can see the argument against the others (though they all have their merits), but Springsteen is a bonafide legend who more than deserves the status on his musical output.

[Gucci Piggy]

if you can get into a WBC Team/Group under the current rules they don't take deposits although its not easy as its used to be as there is more volunteers than places so Organisers can be selective.

Facilities are better than many other volunteer jobs and shifts are a lot less than they used to be - roughly six hours per day { it used to be eight hours }

volunteers get two meal and two drink vouchers per shift and for the larger events they do run free coaches and you get in a day before ticket holders.

When I first joined I never had any bar experience - all that is required is a person has to be dependable and honest.

[DaveElNino]

Bonafide legend cheese is still cheese.

Are we talking live performances or musical output? Bits of his live performance I can agree with may appear so, but musically I'd struggle to tag it with that label (unless of course it's because he's got a couple of 80s anthems...).

I'm still in the undecided camp about a Sunday ticket for the biff It's a lot of Money for a band I've already seen loads but I am seeing Franz Ferdinand and Green Day next week and what could be better than a festival on the bank holiday?

Mainly the lineup had a couple of must see's for me, but apart from SOAD nothing that I haven't seen elsewhere really (this year infact!...even down to Green Day a couple of days before ) and the rest of it was a bit shit.
