Great great line up.So many I would love to see but as usual with T it will be the same farce to get tickets.I got so fed up with it year after year I gave up going.Last went two years ago.
It used to be a great festival,I was at everyone of them from when they were based in Strathclyde to when they moved to Balado but in recent years the punters have been more about vast consumption of alcohol and maybe taking in a few bands,not the other way round.

Wow that's an awesome lineup. I'm a little worried cause half the bands I was hoping would be at Reading (which I already have a ticket for) are now at T and I'm not sure they'll play both.
I have my tickets... my parents tell me that there was stuff in the paper and on the telly about how hard it was, but I got thema nd so did my mate... so we're happy...
they sold out a FESTIVAL in under 1 hour?!?!? thats fucking insane
well done getting tickets Neil
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
Either I was extremely lucky; I got tickets, my mate got tickets, and I had a pair in my basket waiting in case he didn't get tickets. So essentially I got 3 pairs of tickets in the first 11 minutes.
My theory is that it was just well managed. I've tried to get tickets where the system hasn't managed to sell 2 tickets in the first hour cos everything crashed repeatedly. I've read this was 45,000 tickets which equates to at least 22,500 transactions in 1 hour. Hats off to them they did well.
I feel a bit guilty. I've heard people were camping out since wednesday. I think this may be a Scotland today exaggeration, as apparently homelessness was down that week as well, more unshaven people seem to be attending T in the Park, and Newspaper sleeping bags appear to be the new fashionable street wear of choice among the UK concert going yoof.
Best lineup ive seen at T, looking forward to it already!! Rage, Kol, Aphex Twin, the Verve, Chemical Brothers, Charlatans, Ian Brown and Interpol are the ones ill bew checking out.
People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.
