Speaking of brothers, they are no longer allowed to sell it in 2litre bottles. Now that was a devastating, festival-altering change...

 

 

That's crap!!

Aaaah, I was confused, thought the Brothers Cider tent must've moved

I think a riot would break out if they moved that, 

 

same place, just the field changed it's name, you can't beat your first pint of Brothers on Wednesday

More bands cover Heroes than they used to.

i never really understood why they did that., I was asking the day they decided mid festival to stop doing it. They said "they had been told they had to stop , as they had to promote sensible drinking"

 

i think I chuntered something at them bought 4 pint stomped off, dropped one and carried on without looking back, as I realised I was being a twat.

i had been waiting for it to open for hours

I *really* hope that whole Bowie tribute stuff isn't a massive pile of overblown w*nkcheese.  I know it's going to be everywhere.  I know that bands will be playing Bowie covers.  I just hope it doesn't reek of pathetic, cringeworthy, self-aggrandisement.

It will. Bandwagoners everywhere. Itll be worse than that Kony 2012 shite.

Expect to see Mick Eavis on the Pyramid Stage like this on Monday.

What's not to enjoy about seeing Ellie Goulding doing her version of Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing?

[budvar]

Stuff happens on the Thursday now, including a few bands performing.

 But don't go anywhere near Williams Green if you value personal space

i loved lost vangueness,

 

but shangri la is good fun. not quite the same , but different in many ways and slightly better at night when it comes alive

 

alos Jazz world is now West Holts, but I will always call it Jazz World

Tell me about Lost Vagueness... I'm really curious  - where was it? What was it like? I went in 2004, but never came across it - can't quite work out how I didnt' - then didn't go back for 10 years and it had gone..... so many questions...

[Madyaker]

You won't be able to go as hard as you did last time. Coldplay and Muse aren't good any more.

it was in the south East Corner where Shangria is.  they had a chapel there people used to get married. I remember being sat there with two litre bottle of cider chatting to a dwarf in a tux for an hour.

 

full of strange things, similar to Shangrila, i don;t remember them having any stages though. but i could be wrong.

Back in 2003 (I think?) I watched a lesbian wedding in there, in a boxing ring, with nuns swigging bottles of champagne, and one nun scratching and mixing on a pair of decks. When we left my mate proudly announced that he had bought some shrooms from a bloke standing behind him.

Was certainly an interesting place...

EDIT: This it is - "The Chapel of Love and Loathing":

The dance stage became the dance village which is now Silver Hayes. It has music from Wednesday onwards and is pretty amazing.
