They should set up a stage for this, possibly in a tent and during the day they can book smaller indie bands who would otherwise not be able to fill the woodies stage. To avoid it getting too crowded at times they could avoid booking bands who had played the pyramid in previous years as “secret” acts on days when there weren’t many other options.

Woke up at 3am to watch Chvrches. Worth it. Foo’s great as always. Looking forward to catching up with the rest.

I’m lucky in that I always knew last year would be the last one for a while. I actually feel excited for all the people who are about to have 5 days of pure joy, including some very good friends.

It’s the loss of the late night acts like guilty pleasures, club de fromage, ultimate power etc for me. Amazing alternatives to dance music late at night that have given me some of my best memories. I really hope they have another space

Hearing first hand how to beat Tory’s and the Murdoch media at elections

Good luck everyone. Was pretty depressing not seeing my name on our groups spreadsheet but I’m content with my choice. until the lineup and until June next year.

The fact that she specifically name dropped Glasto and “almost” headlining it in that awards speech means there will always be hope. As with everything she does though, it will be on her schedule

Appreciate there are probably all sorts of sound and license restrictions but watching the crowd at west holts on Thursday afternoon go off to the Toto - Africa soundcheck only for it to then stop, sucking the life out of the crowd who then all started to wander off in search of something feels like a missed opportunity to use a large space to keep people entertained

My point is that you can still maintain single member districts and have a voting system that stops people winning those seats with less than a majority without needing to change everything and adopting PR regardless of its form.

I really don’t understand why people want PR over a preferential/transferable vote system. Surely the goal here is to stop tories winning seats with 40% of the fptp vote because the left/Centre left vote splits.

I’m not convinced here in Oz. I think you might sever ties before we are ever ready to.

They are still there but still feel pretty content that I won’t be at 2023. We have just bought an overpriced Sydney house, so now financially it might be a huge stretch anyway. And yet, we have a friend who may be getting married in the UK summer, so maybe I should try just in case…..

I’ll always have a soft spot for Sky full of stars because the films clip is them walking up the street of Newtown in Sydney which is near where I use to live and I’d just moved overseas when it was released. Would have preferred their drummer to have not have murdered all those Starks at the Red Wedding though
