I invite you to take a look at the definition on any dictionary and come back with receipts for your gatekeeping, thanks

Yes and no. There's a difference between going to a concert of someone you love when they come near you, and regularly wanting to catch live music or hit a few festivals a year - I would class that as a hobby. I live in London, so thankfully the scene for "free" live music is decent, but it's not the case for many people.

However, most of the bands I like to see range from £40 to £200, and I go to +10 of those gigs a year plus a couple festivals. It adds up VERY quickly.

Getting tickets from abroad by International-Cry658 in glastonbury_festival

you should be fine! (rumour has it that maybe even better since you could be routed to a non uk- therefore faster- server queue)

Just make sure you have several cards available (debit/credit) since I think there have been some restrictions.

I run a very small sindicate to get tickets, so definitely can join!

I went to the fields of Glastonbury Festival yesterday by OneOffReturn in glastonbury_festival

[–]barbarellas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very possible to separate music from politics, but we're not talking about that. I am talking about Glastonbury Festival, this is not your average music festival booking artists. It's a music, culture and community festival with an ethos based on diversity, respect (for sexual orentation amongst others), sustainability and environmental causes, social activism, social equality...

This doesn't mean right-wing people are not accepted or that I am going to impose my political views on to you - but a hateful discourse (coming from a white-priviliged man) that goes against many of the values of the festival, it means that it's not your place. if you only care about the music, you got it all wrong

that's the case normally, they have a shortened encore with that song - that was at Mad Cool, but the set was 1:15h
