    Mates wedding clashes with Lost Village this year, so it's another year where I've not managed to go. Gutted! 

    I'm such a firm believer in the crowd noise being added to mixes as well. There are some tunes from mixes that I'm pretty sure I love solely because they sounded like they went off. 

    to be fair looking at other lineups this year, Lost Village fell a bit short for me compared to 2021, but yeah it's a cracker of a festival, brilliant vibe throughout and i saw no dickheads all weekend (apart from some group that started the whoomp there it is chant and swiftly got beer thrown over them from a few people 😂)

    out of upvotes but absolutely agree on the crowd noise, that unreleased Skrillex/Dog Blood track that comes in after Sugababes you just know brought the whole tent down !

    As Tommy said, he plays everything really. This set is an all timer, everything from Burial to Sugababes, I wish I could have been at Lost Village for this more than anything. 

    Bonobo is a fantastic DJ too, although in my experience you'll get less curveball tunes than Four Tet. 

     

    this is one of those sets where ever time i see it i just have to relisten every time. Will be firmly making amends this year for my sins of missing this at Lost Village (for Ben UFO, still angry at whoever set up that clash)  by catching all of hit sets this year

    My thoughts exactly, will make sure to catch Romy purely for this reason (although Lifetime is also a great tune).

    Lifetime and Lights Out are my tunes over 'we lost dancing' (potentially controversial). I literally heard Lights out for the first time and said to others that it was track of the year contender in January.  but the outcomes the same, any one of those guys playing any one of them songs will just be incredible

    I think this is the great thing. Glastonbury doesn’t need a quota because there’s so many female acts that Glastonbury can book.

    100% agree , like i've not seen some big female/female fronted bands on the lineup (yet) like CHVRCHES, Pale Waves, Yonaka, Jade Bird etc. and it's still got some amazing talent 

    Paramore are still knocking around- they could probably book Evanescence or Avril Lavigne as barely a heritage act and pull a crowd and a half , Glastonbury and Lost Village are the 2 festivals i know that can book a 50/50 lineup without having to brag about it . the talent is just there 

     

    edit: i forgot Romy of all people as well, let alone Annie Mac and Nina Kraviz  

  5. the new BUFO radio 1 residency is once again phenomenal. Aside from the likes of Sam Fender and live acts, he's absolutely my unmissable late night set*

     

    *presuming he'll be there.... he'll definitely be there right 😅

    Its ridiculous...and its got worse as the years have gone on - now we've got gangs of 'lads' with bumbags round their chest wearing a football shirt from the mid-90s.

    Awful. 😄 

    I'm now unfortunately one of these people😂 guilty as charged. but i can't lie, the bumbag round the chest is extremely convenient and practical for your wallet, keys and phone etc. 

     

    edit: unsure i'll get away with a couple of retro Millwall football shirts on site so they might well stay at home 😅

    Paul Temple would’ve been amazing. fingers crossed for Block9

    yeah surely block9 have to absolutely shell it on the heavy side now looking at the rest of the lineups (no complaints on the other lineups, just observation)

    like Silver Hayes had a much heavier lineup than this year imo. Mall Grab on Gully, then you had Hodge> Haai>Daniel Avery>Craig Richards b2b Ben UFO> Four Tet on the Friday night which has some serious weight behind it compared to this year

    Does anyone know if the Graham Hancock at the bottom of the poster is the same Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods, etc?

    holy shit that would be class if so! i've still got my old man's copy of Keeper of Genesis lurking somewhere i might fish it out for a signing

    His use of the F word is artistically justified in my opinion, but I agree with you about “bitch”. It appears far too often on this album and often in a gendered way. It’s 2022 - that shit is indefensible.

    It’s odd to hear someone rap positively about trans people and be considered enough to rap about the emptiness of society, then casually use that word. He can’t even use the ‘cultural’ defence given what he had to say about that in The Heart #5.

    It’s not enough to stop me enjoying the album but it stops it being as good as it could have been. 

    yeah i'm in agreement on all points here (out of upvotes) , the use of "bitch" wasn't enough to be jarring but it pricked my ears up in a bit of an unpleasant way 

    first point agree with 100% , the F word hit hard and intentionally so

    😂😂

    My old flat had a particularly noisy washer dryer that always sounded like unreleased Hessle Audio 

    this is without doubt my favourite comment of all time 😂

    thought it was great personally, so cinematic, you can imagine being there in the middle of the argument. Relatable to anyone who's been in a toxic relationship

    Yeah it certainly seems to be the marmite track of the album, you either like it or you don’t, I can appreciate it artistically but I’ll be skipping it more often than not I think

     

     

    overall the second half of the album could go down as one of the strongest of all time for me . Not a bad Track and simply flows phenomenally

    We Cry Together is a massive misstep.

    Sounds like it should be in an Eminem album.

    Yeah glad someone else agreed, I got the same vibe as ‘Kim’ when listening 

  13. big norm on live at snowbombing - i think quite clearly pre-recorded myself personally, but you can't knock the guy he knows how to get a room moving and seems to have finally updated his set a bit

    edit: i stress the term "a bit" cos the rest has been the carbon copy of any set for the last 10 years since i put this 😂

    Fred Again... - We Lost Dancing 

    🤞  (just gonna keep wishing this into existence)

    out of upvotes but this 100%, i'd settle for Haai or Romy playing it out though

    They could post/courier them to you? Might not be too pricey an option for the convenience of guaranteeing all tents pitched in a  prime location by mid morning Wednesday. 

    yeah did think about this, i mean we're not hell-bent on getting Oxylers, but if there's an option to not be fully in row Z with an hour to walk anywhere then we'd take it! I'm presuming Big Ground fills up just as quickly as well, but maybe a bee-line to dairy grounds with 2 or 3 tents might be the way to go and still have space in the afternoon, as i don't want to set up at 8am then sit there for 6 hours telling people they can't camp here because i'm waiting for mates 😂

    The Thursday is going to be wild! 

    usually i alternate my "proper party" nights where it gets a bit heavier in the confectionaries, usually friday and sunday. but after 2019 i'm thinking thursday and saturday might be the one this year looking at Glade

  17. Just now, Zacko said:

    Definitely think it will be one (or both) of these two that stick out. Fender particularly, he'll be a future headliner by the Monday, if he's not already.  

    could not agree more, if Billie can make the jump frrom that sunday set in 2019 to headliner then they'll have no trouble. I plan on being nowhere else  set-in-stone the whole weekend, but front and centre there is simply unmissable

    Psytrance. Glade Lounge. How many times...?!

    🙄

    Ben

    i'm absolutely up for this!  i have a soft spot for Silver Hayes on the thursday though so it'll take a lot to pull me away from there- but never say never!

    Anyone know when Job Jobse is playing or what stage? (Silver Hayes I know)

    no idea at the moment unfortunately - I think that b2b with Palms Trax suits Lonely Hearts (or what i've seen of it anyways) down to a tee , but that could be said for at least 70% of the artists on the bill, i'd love a thursday night to go up against camelphat 

  20. Afternoon Trops, 6 weeks til most of us will be set up and a few drinks down!

    Now the lineups for areas are coming thick and fast, thought it high time to think about those moments that just epitomise Glastonbury and will stay with ya forever, a couple for me (should i make them all) :

    Diana Ross (obviously)

    Sam Fender, 17 Going Under and Hypersonic Missiles

    Overmono- For Those I Love remix

    Sugababes - Round Round

    Hothouse Flowers - One Tongue 

    Four Tet - 3LW
