Buying the tickets!

Don't announce the line up till spring? Ehhhh no thanks, probabley wouldn't go, all the people who I've came across who go regularly are the type of people who would do my nut in over a weekend.

Glastonbury tickets

Do you guys know of any better way to get Glastonbury tickets (ie. the technical side of things)? The site, no doubt being hammered to death, is timing out a lot.

Any OCUK behind the scenes methods of getting to the site? Any scripts to continually refresh? Extend the timeout period? Anything at all?

tres · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:17

Ooops, somehow didn't see the other post. But this is more of a problem than general chat about them!

ca9phoenix · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:18

started at 08:52 when seetickets went live. I think i got through on the website at about 09:12, conformation email sent at 09:30.

longer than last year, i was sitting pretty by 09:08

i guess I'm one of the lucky ones so far.

i think it took 8 hours to sell out last year so don't panic just yet, there will be about 177'500 tickets like last year!

ca9phoenix · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:20

the auto refresh pinged it through for me and then a 50mb connection helps i guess.

my wife finished nights at 07:00 and waited up until we had conformation... bless

LOL Thousands of people up on a Sunday morning hitting the refresh button. Hope you get them.

the_r_sole · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:25

close to giving up now, for a while at least, that's nearly an hour and a half pressing the poxy refresh button and redialling on the phone! will give it another 10 mins then stop wasting my sunday!

Jumblejug · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:28

Hour and a half and still getting no where

Gilly · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:32

You have to preregister? What faggotry.

doodah · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:34

Yes, registration closed on Friday morning. Round 2 of registration will open again on Monday

Cosimo · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:35

Parachute in.

ca9phoenix · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:37

it's to stop people buying tickets and selling them on as a photo is included in the registration.

i did see a few on the bay. white dark haired male would like to sell lol

the_r_sole · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:37

what's the point in me wasting my time registering then not being able to actually get a f-ing ticket!! you can stick yer glasto up yer chocolate starfish eavis - i hope it rains!

Are people really going mad to pay £200 each for tickets to a concerts without knowing who the artists are? Seems a bit unfair of them not to announce the lineup until after everyone has paid, they could get a load of pub singers in and make a fortune..

doodah · 3 Oct 2010 at 10:41

True but they have had some great lineups in the past. I would 'expect' a great lineup for £200 and the last Glastonbury in this cycle before the 1/2 year break.
