Somerset, ENG @ Glastonbury Festival - June 24th, 2023

Are we all ignoring that the stage she was on had been running 30 minutes late all day… so even if she was on time, there was a huge chance they wouldn’t have been set up for her in time (staging and soundchecking). There’s also a large chance she was told the stage was running behind by the half hour, so would have thought what’s the point in getting ready for 10:30. I don’t defend lateness often but it’s really not her fault when it’s a knock on delay from other acts earlier in the day! -

This is the experience of being a cover collector -

With the merch being delayed in the UK, none of the physicals (CDs/cassettes/vinyl) placed in the same order as merch will ship until the 26th May either, so they’re shooting themselves in the foot for first week sales. Occasionally Universal do an exception, send an email out, and cover the cost of part-shipping so people get their physicals (and they get the sales) during release week, but I’m not super hopeful. It would make sense though, considering people could have ordered 11 formats and a lighter and now 11/12 items in their order are held up. The reason they do the bundles anyway is to maximise first week sales, so a bit silly not to, but this is Universal/DigitalStores so… -
I don't want to derail the thread but I didn't get the sleeve or inserts done there (as they don't do spined sleeves) but I cannot fault their vinyl!

I originally got an extra made for my 'friend' - they then told me they didn't want it after all but I'd spent the £105 or so on getting it made, so listed it at that price+eBay fees just to try and make it back. I can't help what others bidded it up to. Believe me if I was *trying* to profit I'd have got multiple made, wasn't my intention at all, just a sh*tty Twitter mutual who backed out after I'd paid for a copy to be made for him.

I was the vinyl maker - don't worry, the buyer messaged me telling me they had no intention of paying :)))
