Thinking of traveling down from Suffolk if there's any chance I'm heading down tomorrow evening to hang about a couple of pubs on the way to Pilton to see if there is much chatter locally. Doubt it but got to try. I have a car park pass haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smexytime Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Just so people know. You don't need to present any kind of paperwork on a legit EPO. You can literally just walk through quite easily. They have implemented fake checks at each of the entry gates whereby the are making sure the wearer has an EPO band with numbers on it and with golden clasp. If it's a fake you won't get in as the checks are in some places double at each entry gate. I Have heard of people getting in though. Make sure you tread carefully, and don't buy fake EPO's they won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becki7000 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Make sure any EPO tickets have serial numbers on, if not you won't be getting in now, there onto it. However there's been lots of people getting in on other people's tickets, even though photo doesn't match (me included!) Try Twitter etc, but watch out for scammers... See a photo and pick up in person if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilkyJoe Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Good morning lonely people. I hope you're all not too down this weekend. Well my plans fell through spectacularly yesterday. After having a contact on site that had a very good chance of getting me through the gates I had my car loaded up on Wednesday night, ready to set off yesterday lunchtime. Unfortunately a family crisis cropped up yesterday morning which has meant I had to cancel my plans. To say I'm absolutely gutted would be an understatement. I'm afraid to say that there are not many things more important than Glastonbury for me but family has to be one of them! I could easily now ignore the whole weekend and pretend it's not happening but as I'm sure you're all aware this is easier said than done so I've got myself a plan. I'm going to get some Brothers in the fridge and I'm going to sit there with my steel cup from last year and watch every minute of the BBC coverage. Even though I'm not there I'm still going to enjoy Glastonbury in the only way I can and then look forward to Kendal Calling as my next festival. Try not to let it get you down too much. We'll make sure we are all back with a vengeance in 2 years! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting in and then ejected must be worse than sitting at home and not going at all I reckon. Was that a girl called Rennie?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janaka Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) I picked 2 wholesome looking kids at the ID bit and was a big mistake. Properly scrutinised, a manager called over and only having the dude's old bank card saved me. 5 very, very stressful minutes but the older supervisor was much more chilled about things. I'd lost all composure by this point (and the 2 mile walk from car) and just kept grinning at him like a village idiot. Best wishes and good luck to those still trying. It's mainly because of this thread that I kept the motivation and perseverance to get in going. Thank you to all.

No one is going to put their user name (initial and surname) on eBay for all to see when it's not exactly a legitimate entry. Careful folks!

General Lee Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Well, this is fucking miserable isn't it? In work when I should be at Glastonbury, certainly not a good Friday afternoon. I'm off home in half an hour anyway, I think the drinking might start fairly soon after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
