Not saying you aren't allowed to be wrong, just don't be wrong and then say "I've always been right".

And the year before he said it wasn't imminent the day before it dropped 😂

I'm not saying it's a given but I also don't think it would be "hijacking". It's not like it's not on topic—she's there to speak about women in music, as the organiser of a festival which last year made headlines for having an all-male line-up, which she's spoken about at length, and has also spoken about it in the context of this year's line-up. I also feel like we all assume everyone is as invested in the line-up of Glastonbury festival as us, to the point that if she mentioned a couple of names playing the whole room would erupt into chatter and applause and stop listening to anything else instead of just nodding and going "ah nice".

Everyone arguing against Taylor is daft, not because of the argument, but because of the stakes of arguing it. If she's booked the people who were right will be like "see you look stupid for saying it was impossible", but if she's not, those people can just say "I never said I was sure she'd play, just that it wasn't impossible", so you never get your "I was right" moment. Might as well just avoid the convo until we know either way.

Or how about coldplay who had a one day gap in 2016 between a show in amsterdam with massive staging, flashing wristband, a walkway into the crowd, and then a one-off show in glastonbury with a completely different setlist? How is it "insane" to think people are able to manage a one-off show during a tour when it's happened loads of times?

Billie did back-to-back at Glastonbury and then O2 the day after? I mean I get what you're saying, but I don't get how the size of the larger show has any effect on how hard it is to have a smaller show? If you're bringing a 20-25 song subset of your show it doesn't matter whether the original show is 44 or 100 songs, you pick the parts you're going to bring to the festival show and rehearse them? If she has the will to do it, having a big stadium show doesn't inhibit her.

Didn't Elton John literally just do this 😂. I personally am not super bullish on her headlining (although I don't think this debate is going to subside as I think she's probably going to add a date on the Thursday in Dublin—more often than not her extra dates get added before the existing ones) but the idea that it's something that she wouldn't want to/be able to do when she's well known as the busiest woman in music at the moment after a headliner literally just brought an entirely new show in the middle of a massive tour is quite funny. As others have said here—if she wants to make it work she'll make it work. I'm not confident she does but any arguments to the tune of "it's not feasible" are silly.

The temple have posted on instagram about the saturday saying it will "go down in rave history" and notably have let slip that both the TBA slots on there saturday are b2b: I _thought_ i had heard talk that one of them was fatboy slim? Is that less likely to be the case now with it being a b2b (does fatboy slim ever b2b?)

Only have it on iOS so don't know how different the Android one is but for me, problems are: In "Timeline View" specifically, switching between the big days (Fri/Sat/Sun) is horrendously slow, talking 3-4 second lag. Switching between dates doesn't save your scroll position, so if you've scrolled all the way down to something and want to check something on another day you lose a lot of time. Switching between "Festival Line-Up" and "My Line-Up" changes the date picker to only include dates from your line-up. You can see the logic for this but it could be confusing, especially as the visual state of that button doesn't really indicate which view you're in. The above issue also exacerbates the scroll position issue as if you change from "Festival Line-Up" to "My Line-Up" and back, you might be jumped to a different date, if you hadn't yet selected anything on that date. There's also loads of little UI problems that probably make me seem nitpicky but added up they just feel awful, for example: The seemingly random choice of modals and webviews that slide up from the bottom or slide in from the right. Non optimistic UI for buttons that could be laggy like the toggles. The stage specific line-up pages you can only get to from the map, but that you can then view other stages on if you toggle to "My Line-Up". The huge amount of wasted space on the line-up view in a bunch of areas. etc.

Hope we all boycott and review-bomb the new app over this. f**kers.

Last year it wasn't advertised but it opened on Wednesday at 9pm and stayed open until about 1 or 2am? Got in absolutely no problem, cos no-one was expecting it to be open. I'll be milling around there again around the same time this year on the Wednesday I reckon to see if it's the same.

They won't be included in Sunday. The general sale capacity has an upper limit agreed with the council, the extra coach ticket capacity is included only if those people travel by coach.

lol like it wasn’t oxfam’s job to announce glastonbury acts when they had the stormzy poster in the window?

any dogs?

define steward action?
