Pretty incredible so far isn't it... I'm more into the heavy stuff generally so T in the Park tends to only have a few bands I really want to see, but RATFM! Biffy Clyro for what I think is the 8th year in a row! Basically, there's hardly a band on that list I'd turn my nose up at.
I bet it rains ![]()

Back of the net... 2 tickets plus bus tickets, inexplicably bought at earlybird rate. My brother got the sold out message after 6 minutes
![]() Already 210 tickets on Ebay. Some at not too bad prices btw, our weekend tickets were ?180 I think, including the bus tickets (no camping for us, means we miss the Verve but on the other hand, no shivering on a damp hill in the arctic circle- we camp at Reading, where you're positively encouraged to have a big fire to keep away predators, but at t in the park it's colder, it's wetter and the festival police get nervous if you have a torch, never mind a fire. Anyway. Tickets, right? Weekend no camping can be had for ?205 on Ebay, or ?340 a pair buy it now, right now- which is about a 33% markup, which is not too terrible. ?270 for camping. It's still taking the **** of course and it's always a gamble, so be careful.

I also got sold out after 26 mins of waiting on the standard camping tickets, but refused to give up and found that if I went for the camping tickets with a bus pass they were still available 2*190.00 + 4.95 postage. There was also no que for them online which was awesome, I got some of the last ones though as 1 min later it said they had sold out. I'll see ya there!
