They should put the libertines, the release a new record and there are a few rock bands this year

So basically, this festival, Beach, Please! has this rule where you cannot enter the festival is the name on the ticket doesen’t connect with the person who uses it, but some of my friends got me tickets with their name on them, so, does anyone know if the people at the entrance care so much about this rule?

Mike Pinder - Moody Blues keyboard player.

Newey leaving Red Bull then it seems: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2024/apr/25/red-bull-designer-adrian-newey-to-leave-over-christian-horner-allegations Way too early to make any difference to any teams cars next year but a great time to get him in for the next major regulation change. Aston Martin or Red Bull do we think?

C'mon now, we're all better than that here.

Thank you! Now I know the full info.. the most exciting part is that they've got 5 family members coming, all 5 will be first timers who are obviously very excited... but for us it's amazing too as they'll be camping with us and I love nothing more than showing people around their first Glastonbury, just watching the amazement on their face. Can't wait.

I'm out of reactions hahaha

I seem to recall the profits from the little tin boats going to renovate a building - possibly a water mill. Can anyone confirm? https://www.alamy.com/steam-powered-boat-stall-at-glastonbury-festival-of-contemporary-performing-image5084195.html

Loads of crew collect their wristbands from inside the festival. They showed the ticket and just needed an id that matched the name of the ticket to be let in the pedestrian gates. Sounds like all tickets might have a photo on this year if @crazyfool is right.

I'd be really surprised if they came back with something they tried to retire 7 years ago. Couple years after COVID and with the planning drama are all fine for it to return for a year or two but would really expect it to move on now, and all signs do point theft waY.

Yeah I'm thinking Richard/lankum/yo la tango as garden stage headliners.

Williams Green was so good for the lesser known but great 'guitary' stuff. One of my fave sets of 2022 was Penelope Isles at that stage. Id seen them before that in Manchester but they absolutely nailed it and it is a core glastonbury memory for me. Well worth checking those guys out if you've not listened before... still hoping they might get announced. Love all the bands you mentioned, fontaines are un-missable for me, they keep getting better and better. Would second watching Mdou Moctar if you want to see a very good guitarist and a brill live set, but it's not the same style as the stuff you mentioned so worth listening to first. Also second soccer mommy, skindred, alvvays, Fat Dog. Bob Vylan have some almost limp bizkit/rage riffs behind them too. Thanks for Drenge recommendation, hadn't heard before but love it!

Is there a hole-shaped-hole for her tho? I'll get me coat.

She can literally drop 1 day before the festival and nobody can do anything about that.

Only if it's the core one by Halvin, the rest are guesses. https://clashfinder.com/s/g2024 👍🏻

Yea me too. Think this deserves a thread of its own. We need to know why,what,where,how????

They were missing in 2022 as well, I loved those little boats! 😥

Many thanks for the tip's, I will certainly give them a listen. It should be easier to do some research once the splits etc come out and we have some times.

MASSIVE

Nah not happening it’s just rumours

I wouldnt put it past Courtney Love to make an appearance - not with Hole - but as a guest or as a DJ or something She recently appeared with Green Day https://www.stereogum.com/2253522/watch-courtney-love-billie-joe-armstrong-cover-cheap-trick-tom-petty-in-london/news/ And also recently DJ'd at the Portrait Gallery in London for Vivienne Westwood https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/21/style/courtney-love-national-portrait-gallery-lotw/index.html She lives in the UK now and has been doing lots of press events. No matter what you think of her, she likes to be seen, and what better place than glastonbury?

Being able to choose different channels/genres and have others be able to choose… then looking at each other/around at people dancing out of sync and maybe switching. Listening to the ridiculous shuffling. It’s very silly but fun if you are in the mood. At Glastonbury though, the main appeal if you were in the area would probably be that it wouldn’t be rammed or involve a trek across the site.

Shaping up nicely. Will be spending most of my evening in the big top unless I’m given a suggestion elsewhere!

All guesswork until the stage splits are announced
