Glastonbury Festival, by High Contrast on Jul 4, 2024 7:01:10 GMT 1, My opinion for what's it's worth is that ever since they put up the fence Glastonbury lost all the vibe. First 3 years I went in the 90s it was fucking bedlam, no one I knew paid to get it in and it went hard, proper last days of Rome debauchery. I hitchhiked down from London each time and met some of the most insane people I think you'll ever likely encounter. I went again in 2003 (I think) after they put up the insane fence, and had to pay like ยฃ150, security everywhere, totally different crowd, nowhere nearly as hedonistic and people were starting to take fucking selfies and hold their phones up instead of lighters, beginning of the end and not been since. From the people I speak to it's basically gone down hill since. At ยฃ350 a ticket and based on the number of 50 year old+ well off men on this Forum that attended Id say is good indication of where it is today. The fact Banksy still goes there and tries to make lefty political statements to a bunch of millionaires and their trust fund kids kind of highlights what a joke it's become. Bet you'd never see him turn up to a big squat/traveler rave anymore especially if the BBC aren't going to be in attendance. Sounds right up my street in the 90โs

Glastonbury Festival, by Richy Rich on Jul 4, 2024 8:29:09 GMT 1, I would say drugs have a limited if any real prescence there now. Itโs a lot bigger and more to see and do. People want enjoy the day. More drinking then anything else. I hadnโt been for 15years, and itโs really different now- but so much better. Stone Circle for example is just tiny, so small. Itโs not really a feature anymore just a field you might pass through to the park (and Iโve spent many years going up there, used to be the highlight). This was my 22nd festival and I've been going since the 90's. Unless you spend your time watching Shania Twain and Coldplay at the main stage (each to their own) then I feel like your experience on the festival was probably vastly different to the majority. Drugs have a very real presence at the festival every year. I had some interesting conversations with a lot of the guys organising Silver Hayes, West Holts and Arcadia and I'm always interested in hearing their thoughts about the average punters mindset. Most seemed to think that around 50-70% of the punters of drug taking age were likely to be partaking in some kind of illegal activity during the weekend.

Glastonbury Festival, by PC Baby on Jul 4, 2024 9:52:40 GMT 1, Itโs interesting just how much negative things people have to say who A- didnโt go to Glastonbury (probably never have been) B-Didnโt visit Banksyโs stage Terminal 1 there this year B-Didnโt buy Banksyโs screen print for Terminal 1 or his borderline print. Donโt you have other threads to be scroll too that are relevant to you? Literally some of you have made over 50posts on an event you didnโt attend and a print you didnโt buy dragging the whole thing ๐ Quite right: 'A'- didn't go to Glastonbury and have never had the opportunity either - ergo; didn't do 'B' for precisely that reason.
There are absolutely no threads relevant to me on this forum, apart from anything connected to 'Banksy'. That's why I enjoyed reading about all the happenings at this year's festival, especially the 'surfing dinghy' (seems like so many moons ago now).
Excuse my language, but this has turned into a **ite thread and should be re-named accordingly - IMHO !

Glastonbury Festival, by Terry Fuckwitt on Jul 4, 2024 10:44:21 GMT 1, Depends on what they do with Terminal 1 moving forward I would think. Is back next year. Maybe thereโll be a wider set? These are better than gdp handouts though. Theyโre an official release, with provenance. Bigger, better quality paper and more complicated printing. More colours, split fountains etc. Banksy and Glastonbury, and his first stage there is an awesome theme actually. He goes back decades there and finally has his own stage. Thats what I like about them. This was what you said in your very first post here... 'Theyโre ยฃ15 with a tube on not great paper and some arenโt printed very well'
Then in this post you said... 'Bigger, better quality paper and more complicated printing. More colours, split fountains etc'

Glastonbury Festival, by Greg on Jul 4, 2024 11:13:47 GMT 1, I ordered a Terminal 1 poster from an eBay seller over the weekend, for just below ยฃ100. Was surprised to see it being shipped today. Will have to see what arrives ๐ค๐ค๐ป Damn.... Looks like a Royal Mail ref was created but the item has not been sent/handed over to Royal Mail.
That's a pretty shitty thing to do, I'd rather they just backed out and relisted the poster for the sake of ยฃ100.
I am also pretty certain this seller is on this Forum but I'll just leave that here.
I'm going back under my rock... Peace out โ๐ป

Assuming you're just unaware, rather than just plain rude, English isn't Lroy's first language.

Glastonbury Festival, by its all about me on Jul 4, 2024 12:14:58 GMT 1, Ok, let's take a rest from all the abuse and insults just for a moment and look at the actual art.
Reasons why the posters are almost definitely NOT by Banksy...
1. They are a South American company promoting South American artists.
2. They are printed in garish day-glo colours. Does B ever do this?
3. There are different colourways of the same image. Does B ever do this?
4. Banksy's work is very political and often features humour. I'm not sure I see either of these things in these posters.
5. Banksy make his message very obvious, sometimes taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Is there a message to these posters? If so it is very subtle. Banksy does not do 'subtle'.
6. One of the images is a copy of a photograph. Does B ever produce artworks from making a print out of a photograph?
7. If these prints are by Banksy then why did he only do 2 of the 4 available? Surely he would do all 4 ... or none at all.
8. The fact that Banksy may have curated Terminal 1 does not mean he had anything to do with the posters (see 7 above).
9. The fact that there was a Banksy inflatable at the festival does not mean he also produced some posters as well.
10. Banksy always acknowledges when he produces something, even postcards and t-shirts. If these posters really are by him why hasn't he acknowledged as such?
Have I missed anything?

8. The fact that Banksy may have curated Terminal 1 does not mean he had anything to do with the posters (see 7 above).
9. The fact that there was a Banksy inflatable at the festival does not mean he also produced some posters as well.
10. Banksy always acknowledges when he produces something, even postcards and t-shirts. If these posters really are by him why hasn't he acknowledged as such?
Have I missed anything?

Glastonbury Festival, by Gunny on Jul 4, 2024 12:16:28 GMT 1, Ok, let's take a rest from all the abuse and insults just for a moment and look at the actual art. Reasons why the posters are almost definitely NOT by Banksy... 1. They are a South American company promoting South American artists. 2. They are printed in garish day-glo colours. Does B ever do this? 3. There are different colourways of the same image. Does B ever do this? 4. Banksy's work is very political and often features humour. I'm not sure I see either of these things in these posters. 5. Banksy make his message very obvious, sometimes taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Is there a message to these posters? If so it is very subtle. Banksy does not do 'subtle'. 6. One of the images is a copy of a photograph. Does B ever produce artworks from making a print out of a photograph? 7. If these prints are by Banksy then why did he only do 2 of the 4 available? Surely he would do all 4 ... or none at all. 8. The fact that Banksy may have curated Terminal 1 does not mean he had anything to do with the posters (see 7 above). 9. The fact that there was a Banksy inflatable at the festival does not mean he also produced some posters as well. 10. Banksy always acknowledges when he produces something, even postcards and t-shirts. If these posters really are by him why hasn't he acknowledged as such? Have I missed anything? Spot on. If you are being suckered into paying silly money for these, then let it be a lesson learned. Absolutely not by Banksy

Assume you'll be clogging up the board until then?
