I hope everyone got off the fields ok….I left Emperors last night, got stuck and thankfully had to friends with me to give me a push…..no sign of anyone pulling people off 😡

It’s been dry for the last 3 days so will be better than expected I think….showers heading in from tonight

I live about 5 miles from site….it’s been raining pretty constantly for days….more rain forecast leading up to and throughout the festival….it’s cold at night….bring wellies, waterproofs and warm clothes….it’s gonna be grim!

They usually tell you to take them down in the first day….they’re more relaxed after that

Oh my god the weather is shocking in Penrith at the moment….it’s been pissing down on and off for a few days and tbe long range forecast doesn’t look to be changing much for the festival 😡

You’d be gutted with that wouldn’t you 😂

Sorry if this has been asked…..can you pay contactless at the bars? I can’t remember 🤷🏻‍♂️

Funny 😂

It’s got to be Foo Fighter…..and if not, then EE will have to confirm they are not playing soon as things are already escalating into a frenzy 😂

They’ll be there…..I’m pretty sure they tweeted “somewhere in a field in Somerset” recently….hope it’s a Pyramid slot as the secret set they did a few years ago on the Park was rammed

Yes….the whole site changed last year. The Glow / Parklands stage (still a tent) is where the main stage used to be, and the main stage moved to where the entrance from general camping used to be. The site was much smaller as the area where the Glow Tent used to be wasn’t used last year

Email just arrived….aannndddd relax

I’ve not had my email….the rest of my group all have theirs 😳

There’s an article on the BBC Cumbria website that says “Hardwicke Circus will be playing Glastonbury after attracting the attention of Paul McCartney”. They played last year under the same description though so it might just be a copy and paste from a previous press release. Here’s the article: What does being Cumbrian mean in 2023? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cumbria-64901237

Got to be a nailed on secret set

I’d probably skip Blossoms and see Frank Turner to be fair

I see that Beautiful Days have announced Suede, Primal Scream and the Levellers…..I should have had a go at predicting their line up instead 😂

It’s a good 20 minute walk to the arena

Is it sold out?

I don’t agree that this is a ‘safe’ line up. Kasabian are strong and Chic is excellent for Thursday. Giving Blossoms a chance to headline is a risk and big step up for them….same with Royal Blood….not everyone cup of tea but at least it’s different, which I’ve been calling for so can’t complain!

I stand corrected….that’s a pretty strong line up I think!

Fingers crossed for tomorrow then 🙄

Usual familiar names then?

My prediction stands…..but really hoping for someone new….like Idles, Wolf Alice or Pulp…..aim high and settle for the fall out 😂

Sorry….just being playful….no info I’m afraid 😬
