Frank :lol: :wub:

If you're planning on going, general admission is reasonable by today's gig standards. Probably about £60 each. We saw Tom Petty there a few years back and paid for the platinum tickets which were really expensive (about £250 each I think) but you got access to a Povvo free area off to the side of the stage with its own entrance, plus access to the area right in front of the stage. Even at the back of that bit you were right at the front. Well sort it imo. If someone we like is playing this time we'll definitely do that again.

Yeah, she played BST with 1989 a few years back which was immense :wub: We did the platinum tickets as well just because I wasn't overly fond of the idea of festival crowds and toilets :shifty: Emma Watson was there, too.

Definitely doing those this time, just hope that BST are setting the ticket prices again, not her!

It's well worth it for the experience you get.

British Summer Time > Glastonbury.

It was rumoured for a while but I don't think I'd ever manage Glastonbury.

Just been to see Napalm Death playing a home show in Birmingham, and it was one of the most life affirming gigs I've seen.

Felt the same about Babymetal at the Barrowlands last night.

Well, they've officially cancelled British Summer Time (the festival). Knew it was coming, but that's put a downer on my day.

Download announced last week they were off. Surely the rest will be too.

I guess one of the organisers parents picked the phone up.

Looking at the kind of people who think the restrictions don’t apply to them, I expect the End of the Road festival will still go ahead.

No gooseberry fool. Any 2020 festival that hasn't cancelled yet is absolutely delusional.

There's loads of old Glastonbury performances up on iPlayer at the moment.

And the best thing is they are just the performances. No 15 minute Jo Whiley monologue about "how important it is" or footage of some twat wandering around a circus tent telling us how "crazy" it all is.

First Post in this thread for a while, unsurprisingly.

Just had another gig postponed till next year, but this one was due to take place after restrictions due to be lifted on 21 June - the Green Day / Fall Out Boy / Wheezer get together (HellaMegaTour?).
Was 25th June this year, now 24 June 2022!

Does this mean that any large scale festivals, gigs and events such as Goodwood Festival of Speed due early July are all likely to be kiboshed too?

I wouldn't feel confident with any events actually going ahead this year. Even if social distancing restrictions are lifted in June, a lot of events will hesitate before going ahead. Especially if they can't get insurance to cover them.
