Saw a heap of Irish talent last night in town (Dublin), with the pick of the bunch being The Murder Capital, always on form. Cannot wait to see them again at Glastonbury. Was it established where/when/how many times they are playing sorry @eFestivals ?
Fontaines levels were a bit off in sound levels, good show tho, Kneecap, would be interesting to see in the land of the Brits alright, Just Mustard sounded fantastic, been waiting almost two years to see them, nearly booked them to play The Spotted Dog in Bham if anyone knows it, fell through due to them getting support slots for Fontaines.
Oh yeah, and if anyone is interested, was told FDC second album is coming out in June,

I don't think that was Matt's point. He's saying that Elbow as a sub is a suggestion from people who haven't kept up with contemporary music and expect the festival to book the same stuff as a decade ago. When really there are so many new, exciting and contemporary acts that could fill the slot.
I think Matt has a valid point, but also that Elbow can still sub, so in a way i'm thinking both views are right on this occasion.
Then again, nobody asked or cares what I think.
Totally unrelated but I was really hoping The War On Drugs would be on the circuit this summer, but going to be next one by the looks of it.

My Dad is a huge fan and am considering getting him a ticket as a birthday present... they’re going to be expensive aren’t they?

I really don't. i'm guessing same as everyone else.
And actually I think I'm probably wrong, because didn't Emily say something about a little bit earlier this year?
and if we are run with that logic, the announcement last year was a week Monday (15th), so we should be getting it next week probably? or even this week... but don't we usually hear a strong murmur when it is very imminent
Still thinking March 25th tho

So they’re unprofessional as well as shite?
I would rather pay £20 to see Hugh Jass scrap it out with Liam Fray than any of those Youtube gobshites any day of the week

Gerry Cinnamon clashing against Noel would seem a bit odd, very similar fan bases I would say.
Initially thought that but didn't Liam and the Boreteeners overlap in a same position last year?

Wilson at KC the other year was a sad old sight. I’m assuming he’s got bills to pay as he shouldn’t really be anywhere near a stage these days for me.
Do you remember when they zoomed in on him scratching his bollix

The Fray, when I was 15

Just in relation to my posts r.e. Pale Waves earlier. Statement has now been released, rest of shows on current tour have been cancelled:

Everyone is OK though by the looks of it. Apologies if I caused any panic earlier, but I knew it would be true from source

Loyle Carner subbing it seems.
What makes you think that?

Band and crew are all OK apparently ,no serious injuries but I would assume minor injuries by the wording? Imagine some are in shock but ultimately fine

Christ, do you know the source for this? The bass player is my step dads grandson. Although my mum hasn’t text me so I’m not sure it’s Charlie.
Someone’s Facebook status I know who has gigged with them, played with most UK indie bands last 7/8 years they did Williams green a few years ago... techs for a lot of them now around the world... I can’t find anything online yet about it tho... hope all is OK

Didn’t know where else to put this, and not confirmed but been told one or more of Pale Waves been involved in a serious car accident over night

I still think it's Royal Blood, Calvin Harris & Pet Shop Boys. I think Biffy could sub the Pyramid on Sunday again.
Assuming day order, wouldn't it make more sense for PSB vs KL & RB & TS

would love a run around the site but definitely not over the festival weekend, don't they do a 10k race around there at some point out of festival time?
smashed out a little 8 miler steady last night at 4:45 per km and got a fartlek session this eve which im not really looking forward to! - rest day Friday, park run Saturday and 20 miler on sunday!
Very impressive

As much as I love running and Glasto I couldn't think of anything worse than running at Glasto.
I know, the sweat for post Thursday morning would be on your body/clothes for the weekend then, when you're trying to keep it to a minimum, I really want to get myself to the eFests meet this year though

I actually kidded myself I might do it and took my kit. Suffice to say I did not make it.
Ha, in the same exact boat as you Quark, think the cans hit me too hard, a friend who was pinging into Deep Space 9 was convinced he was going to stay up for it, suffice to say, he did not make it

Good news on the refund.
Can only echo what the others have said, last Sep was my first half as well. One thing I'd recommend if it's possible is to get a feel for the course in advance. The one I did is a big figure of 8, so was able to break it into 2 chunks and run those just so the terrain and hills didn't take me by surprise on the day!
That's why I was keen on Birmingham because I am a Brummie, so route would have been familiar, looking like bally-in-the-arse-end-of-no-where in Ireland for me anyhow... anyone do the 5K at Glastonbury last year, think it was Thursday morning?

thanks both @Homer @grilladelphia looking forward to taking two firm step back on the progress on the farm, come the last week in June. You both going?

oh nightmare - they may have an option to defer your place so its not a total waste? worth asking for sure
To my surprise I got a refund as it was within 5 working days, minus admin fee... now eyeing up the half at Ros Go Run 2020 on 06/09 in co. Roscommon... I can only ever get to about 14/15km max in training, i'm just hoping if I have a few months on that and get upto about 18km, momentum on the day will see me through... I know I sound like the Tyson Fury story here 😄but it'll give me such a huge sense of achievement

Pretty poor form @eFestivals for you to like that post given you apparently want things on your forum to stay clean.....apparently not!

Are we actually serious?, stop making Glastonbury jump on new trends festival and making of point of things not needed. No one has ever complained about where Sinead has been booked when she turns up every so often that she does. It's a music festival, it's not an option to tick at a voting station each year because they say they will do this, this and this to improve. Leave the politics on Leffield.
Have you missed the gender balance discussion of the last few years?

Yep, ala following the FDC route of 2019 on the farm. JM will be there I am positive as well, Frank sounded good as audio last night. Did you catch any of the FDC sets last year? That rabbit hole set was the loudest gig I've ever been too, God Damn at the Hare & Hounds a close second
