Elbow at Glastonbury 2011

I see Elbow are playing on the Pyramid Stage before U2 on Friday. Missed out on tickets both times they've come up for sale. Who do I have to sleep with to get a pair when the last few become available?

I would try sleeping with Emily Eavis, it's a sure fire way. Or take up dairy farming, start work now on the farm and then land youself a free ticket. Wink

That sounds ok. Would even contemplate spending the weekend emptying the toilets if it got me 2 tickets. Would probably also mean I'd get a nice spot to myself on the barrier Smile

Try the re sale, which will probably be the beginning of April

Sadly we didn't manage to get tickets in the third and final wave. Gutted not to be seeing them on the Pyramid Stage again. Their performance on Friday afternoon in 2004 was one of my all time Glasto highlights.

Sounds good pal ! I'll be on the piss from 7, as soon as the tv coverage starts - a banging head in the morning, then a day of recovery before the excitement builds for Elbow who start with Hotel Istanbul and finish their set with Asleep In The Back, Newborn and Powder Blue........... cheers

Bloomin 'eck - I wonder if they'll do Grace!!!! I would LOVE to see that!

Subject: Re: Elbow at Glastonbury 2011 Sat 25 Jun 2011, 18:03

I can feel the excitement building, beer on ice, pizza in the oven, surround speakers and 50" TV poised ready for what should be a fantabulous evening, enjoy everyone! Very Happy

God the build up. Missing the string quartet tho

Subject: Re: Elbow at Glastonbury 2011 Sat 25 Jun 2011, 19:17

Just cracked open the wine - I KNOW they will be brilliant and Guy will charm any doubters.

Feel like a cocky and proud parent awaiting his sons to blow the competition outta the water !

Subject: Re: Elbow at Glastonbury 2011 Sat 25 Jun 2011, 19:24

Openin track The Birds. Thank you Elbow

Subject: Re: Elbow at Glastonbury 2011 Sat 25 Jun 2011, 21:03

Well, that totally blew me away - everything seemed perfect - weather, crowd and the band.....assume the setlist didn't include anything from the first 3 albums.

Much deserved lads - you had me in bits. I love you

Subject: Re: Elbow at Glastonbury 2011 Sat 25 Jun 2011, 21:35

Such a brilliant performance!! I really really loved Neat Little Rows. Also the reverse Mexican wave and Guy's interactions with the audience were excellent Smile
