  1. Would love to see boy genius as the poster surprise. With solo sets for Phoebe, Julien and Lucy too
  2. This is the sort of curveball we come here for, as long as it's a career spanning set from Madge I am in. I think there could be some mileage in all female headline trio.
  3. Admittedly not my style of music but I was intrigued and watched with an open mind, just didn't do anything for me. I'm more than happy to give these artists a look though, it is interesting trying to expand my horizons. I'm pretty sure The Weeknd would smash a headline performance at Glastonbury though as his popularity cannot be denied. Agree with you re Kendrick and your alternates.
  4. Wow, what a few pages to catch up on. Who the hell are SHM? never heard of them? Sam Fender to headline? the Weeknd (who I have at least heard of but his SuperBowl HT show was dull as ditchwater). I'd actually like to see Flo headline as she clashed with one of my all time fave Alabama 3 sets in the Glade the last time she headlined. I'm looking forward to seeing Billie and probably being underwhelmed by the other two headliners, grumpy old man that I am. That said it is thoroughly refreshing to see the fire of speculation well and truly lit as we move into the pre-announcement period. I suspect that Emily's emergency back ups are ready (Flo/FF/Muse/George Ezra etc) whilst she continues to see if Macca and Kendrick can make it. The Covid situation seems to really be hitting the US acts the hardest which must be making this a nightmare to put together.

    Campsite Poll

    2009 I was in Wicket for my debut prior to it becoming a family field. Very quiet, felt cut off as it was surrounded by trees but I enjoyed it there. 2010 Park Home behind the Bimble Inn. Location was superb but the trade off for us was being too close to the toilets, not as noisy as I thought it would be. 2011 Michaels's Mead. Superb, could see the Pyramid from our tent, near to Lulu's cafe, a spot I've often wanted to return too. 2015/17 Having missed 13&14 I returned and ended up in Pylon purely because of it's proximity to the coach station. A vastly underrated field in my view. Plenty of room, not too far from JP, Silver Hayes Other or Pyramid. Also pretty quiet. 2016/19 Worthy View, quite frankly my group wanted WV so that's what we did. The big plus point was that Wednesday was a breeze. Car park right next to the site, tent already up, so you are good to go as soon as you have dumped your gear in the tent. It cannot be overstated how nice this is. Great views of the site from the market area and if you finish your night in the SE corner of the site not a long walk home. There is the hill, but it's not too bad and you can break the journey at Strummerville. 2022 I'll be at Sticklinch. I was soo close to getting my group inside the fence but they love their pre-erected tents but this time without the hill. Looking forward to being somewhere different. Planning where to camp is one of the funnest things about Glastonbury and there is something to be said for pretty much every part of the site. Get in early on the Wednesday and you'll have your pick.
  6. Annual pilgrimage for me since 2009 ticket gods willing. Sadly they left me bereft in 2013 and 14. They smiled on me in 10/11/15/16/17/19/20 aka 22 though
  7. Billie will be a great headliner in my view, an exciting young artist who is constantly evolving and yet to reach her peak. Shame about the sound for her Other Stage set but I still enjoyed it. Not a nailed on must see for me, but I think there is a very good chance I will be there to see her if indeed she does get the Pyramid gig.
  8. 7 for me and looking forward to number 8 next year. Started in 2009, annoyingly didn't try in the original sale for 13 and in 14 got nowhere in general and resale, have been very fortunate in 10/11/15/16/18/19/20(aka 22) though
  9. A quick query. My group is very keen on a CV pass, how many people would one pitch be able to accommodate, there are currently 6 of us, so that would be some in van and some camped on the pitch space.
  10. I loved it, one of my favourite Pyramid shows. The banter and cheese is part of the entertainment. The crowd were as much a part of that show as the band
  11. Saw Squid last night, they were brilliant. Enjoy!
