  1. I know its not a massive marker but Florence just bagged no.1 album over Kendrick and if you were to ask those attending i'd say more people would pick Florence over Billie Eilish to headline

    The best thing I ate at Green Man last year was a serving of paella - it was so, so good. I foolishly did not note the stall name - but I am going to have my eyes open each day of Glasto on the hunt for it 🤞

    One facing the Mountain stage? Was tasty but I’d pick Paellaria mentioned above over it! (Not the best pic 🙄)

    Saw her twice at End of the road last year - she's fantastic & was my highlight of the festival.

    Yeah was also a highlight for me at Greenman. Hoping she plays an early Park set too

    I struggle because I hate taking my own cans, both in terms of carrying and keeping them cool (there is nothing worse than a warm can of lager) but at the same time the main bar offerings are shite.

    Which is my I spend most of my time on the cider.

    I’m the same about warm cans of lager. Do like a trip to Brothers Bar but wasn’t a fan of Mallets last time, guessing that’ll be the cider at most of main bars again this year?

    I can understand why first timers might be hesitant but I don't have any of those in my group.  We do have old returners though who are moaning about Glasto's hyperinflation and the massive cost of car parking! 

     

    How much is the parking? I’m getting coach but forgot to add parking for my brother. Think you can pay on the day but it’s even more expensive?

    The exposure doesnt always translate how you think. How does Stormzy get the headline slot in 2019, smashes it, has a sold out arena tour booked afterwards and then only books 2,000 cap theatres in the U.S.? Thats the disconnect some people dont see. Thats why lots of acts take the Coachella slot and know thats the launching pad you need for the year because its in the Spring and its crucial momentum you gain if you do really well. 

     

    Also, how much different is the exposure when during the festival weekend all the coverage is on BBC and is location locked? Nobody gets to watch it happen in real time if you dont live in the UK. Thats not a true global event. When lots of other festivals put their broadcasts on youtube and it has no restriction at all. You see the buzz and such happening right there.

    Is Coachella shown live on tv in the US? I’ve watched a couple of live streams on YouTube but the coverage isn’t upto much

  7. It’s not just Glastonbury, they’d have to cancel all festivals. Surely public transport and big shopping centres would be closed first? I wasn’t too concerned about it being cancelled at first but after sxsw cancelled its got me a little worried. I know it’s America and doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll follow suit but I was really surprised by it

    No way RB are subbing the Other. They are comfortably at Pyramid sub/Other headliner level.

    Playing the same sort of festival’s Two Door played when they subbed the other

  9. I’m looking for two tickets to Fontaine’s DC in Manchester if anyone knows of any going.

    Couldn't find a page for them and didn’t want to start a new group so thought in here would do! 
     

     

  10. How many times did Chris Martin appear at other acts shows in 16? If they do play hopefully he’ll leave everyone else to get on with their own set. I’d watch them again, wasn’t looking forward to them in 16 but it’s one of my favourite Glasto sets

  11. Thoughts on the new album? Only listened the once but nothing really stood out and the singles they released from it prior didn’t really make a mark like the lead singles from Little Fictions. I’d like to see them sub the Other, least the band would get to see the sunset for a change!
