Hugs Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) I am looking for a ticket for my friend, and possibly 2 others should unicorn legit ones appear. I have been down more dead ends than a driving instructor, been scammed once, nearly been scammed another time, almost paid £600 for a crew pass which involved a 400mile round trip to collect - we have dodgy way in which I have a feeling we will have to take. Glastonbury brings the desperation out in you! Edited June 19, 2017 by Hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugs Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 6 minutes ago, Charcolate said: Oo what's the dodgy way in?? Basically involves meeting someone in a field and them walking you into the festival (allegedly) either on someone else's band or via security. It means you don't have a band when you're inside the festival walls though so could theoretically get thrown out. The cost is so cheap (100-150) you could probably buy another go if that happens for less than the tickets are going now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train 20 badgers to dig a man sized hole approximately 500metres in length and then to pull you through dog-sled style till you pop up on the other side.

At V they did not check how loose the wristband was so I assumed the person at the door had been paid off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you'd have to be pretty unlucky to get noticed without a band inside though? With the huge crowds there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it works better when its not red hot and less noticeable that you're wearing long sleeved tops to hide those wrists! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand EPO passes (and possibly artist bands?) dont require pass outs so a loosely fitted band can be swapped between people with a ticketed runner going inbetween, Not that Ive thought about it much or anything.

I wish I did that last year... hid my tent somewhere and waited.... Can someone explain to me why when I have no ticket I have just found my anker and the lead, which was harder to locate and put it on charge? I think I am in denial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a guy on Craigslist claiming it just says 'guest' on the ticket.
