Interesting comment from Fairport on FB...about how long it took to sell 6.5k tickets for this year's festival...


But that was when people knew there were around 20,000 tickets available. So no particular hurry. I wonder what the impact of the reduced supply will be, and if in particular it will encourage online touts to get involved?

Since I have a Dentist's appointment at 10:30, I'll probably have a go at 10, then scarper and come back later. As others have said, there's probably no huge hurry.

But I will feel better having booked our tix.

That is what I was thinking…not so much touts…hadn’t thought of that…but the greater urgency to book might spur folk on.

Booked.

Although the £2 administrative fee was a bit of a kick in the balls after raising the prices.

Booked here too!  Peatbogs and Skippinish!  That's a good start.  Martin Barre, Bob Fox & Billy Mitchell, PlumHall, Joe Broughton's lot.  All ticking boxes and no one that's really made my heart sink.

Not going to go off on one but disappointing is an understatement.

Why? This couldn't be a more typical Cropredy line up if it tried. I don't understand why you would think it's suddenly going to morph into a completely different festival?

I'm genuinely sorry if it upsets you but theres very little there for me (Albert Lee and Skippinnish). I've seen a high proportion of the rest and honestly didnt like most of them. I cant really help that but if you'd seen my record collection (and the size of it) you'd know that there is a heck of a lot I do like . For example I loved 2023 (except Nile Rogers) but the last 2 years are just not for me. Sorry if thats a problem but theres really nothing I can do.

It doesn't upset me, just curious, that's all.

It’s been a nightmare
I kept getting to the ticket page and then although already logged in it asked me to enter the details again and then kept coming up invalid password.
It was no good trying to phone either
All sorted in the end but what a hassle

After a chat with my son, it turns out that if I had turned off the wi fi on my phone, it would have reached the ticket page. Either router or ISP settings were being blocked, neither of which I can control. My daughter has got the tickets, so we shall all be there.
