  1. Thank you! I had to use force. I'll no doubt be back next year to ask exactly the same question.
  2. I can't work out where in the command to put the --overwrite and I've tried every option. I've been putting in get_iplayer --tv-quality fhd --pid= but no matter where I put the overwrite command it doesn't work. Anyone have any ideas?
  3. I'm out sadly. 10 Glastonbury's in a row is a very good run. I'm getting married in June and the plan was for this to be our honeymoon (my partner has never been, and it seemed like a perfect opportunity to show her my favourite place on Earth). But we were already struggling with wedding suppliers tripling their prices since Covid, and we just can do it. I have to admit I was underwhelmed by 2022 as well. The music just wasn't for me. The old stuff was too old (all 90's nostalgia) and the new stuff wasn't my thing. Also far too many acts heavily using backing tracks. I'm sad, but I think I'm okay with it. Good luck to everyone trying!
  4. I'm really hoping the photos of Geri Halliwell hugging Nadine Dorries and Liz Truss kind of puts the Spice Girls rumours to bed.
  5. The Billie move in 2019 was facilitated by The Prodigy pulling out, so a gap opened up.
  6. During Sea Girls a guy set off a smoke bomb, but it was so quiet that a security guy just climbed over the barrier, walked up behind him and grabbed it out of his hand. Really made me laugh. They stink, and added to the problem of incessant smoking during Jamie T in the John Peel tent.
  7. Glad to know it wasn't just me with beabadoobee. I ditched Asylums because I'd seen then before and really regret it. Either she was miming or the backing track was massively overpowering. The giveaway seems to be the two guitar amps at the back were neither mic'd up, or switched on.
  8. Whilst heading out of William's Green on Thursday afternoon, two women walked past, all I heard of their conversation was... "I've been here since fucking Monday, I'm GOING to sleep with someone!"
  9. I'm not sure if I hyped it up too much, but I was slightly dissapointed. The start was quite disjointed, and I felt it focused too much on what Glastonbury used to be, rather than what it is now. I get that it was a 50th retrospective, but I've heard all those old stories before. As someone who has been going since 2009, those 10 years were condensed down to just Florence and Stormzy. It also seemed to be a little dismissive of what the festival is now.
  10. Mandala Stage Sunday 1am is Wyldest.
  11. How busy are we expecting Wolf Alice to be on the Friday? I really want to watch a bit of First Aid Kit before wandering over, but don't want to get shut out. Really I should sit through Crowded House, but for me they're an incredibly lame booking.
  12. Maybe after cancelling in 2019, and being offered such a prime spot, he's not taking any chances this time. Baring in mind the Pyramid sub slot probably only came up in the last few weeks when Doja Cat pulled out.
  13. I just listened to The Dying Light for the first time... I now know when I'm going to have at least one of my big ugly cries.
  14. I always thought The Killers John Peel set was a "we can't fit you in as headliners for the next few years, but we can offer you a secret set" type of deal. Then it went down a storm, someone pulled out in 2019, and they got added as a last minute headliner. I'm not sure these secret sets should be seen as setting up future headliners.
  15. My Saturday is looking pretty bleak. The only act I want to see before 16:30 is Holly Humberstone, then there's a five way clash where at most I can see two, then I've got nothing again from 19:45 to 22:30. I'm desperately looking around but so many of the bands seem to be doing this talk singing thing, like Wet Leg, but not as good.
