Sorry if it was not clear I meant new headliners plural in a very direct sense - i.e all 3 are new. 

there's a core crew of 6 of us who try for tickets, all of us have been the lucky one at some point over the years... i went through a purple patch for a number of years where it was me... but now i think about it, i haven't personally got tickets for some time now...   so dang it - maybe the Glastonbury god doesn't want me there either!    not long til i find out i guess... 🙂 

Every year as I leave Hyde Park I say never again, every year they announce an act which drags me back. Looking forward to seeing Olivia at least! 

I think we are some years away from ticket prices putting people off. I guess everybody will have their own limit but I suspect a lot of people will cut back on other luxuries so they can still afford to go.   Plus it doesn't really matter, demand is so huge that for the few people that decide not to try there's another 10 to take their place in the queue.    

I just can't believe this sadly. I've been ten times, but never once got my own tickets - other people got there first for me (even in 2008 when they didn't sell out!). I feel like I get there despite the Glasto Gods who seem not to want me there!    I've worked the last 3 (against my wishes - I'm not one of the "I'll never punter again" brigade, I already have two jobs) despite software engineer husband and utilising every trick we've dug out of every corner of the internet (sadly weren't quick enough on the fix last year). It was the only reason I joined here!    I don't believe I could possibly have less luck with the new system than the old, but will undoubtedly regret this misplaced optimism. I have my work role to fall back on and it's better than not being there but... Pffft, I don't know, it's all just luck isn't it.
