    Yes it was, set was delayed but then Michael appeared in his red Land Rover and suddenly everything was ok! 

    That was actually my first time seeing him up close. A load of James fans were standing together at the left hand side of the Other Stage barriers that were still in place as they placed the wood chippings, he walked towards the stage on the inside about 50 paces from us, got a nice wave and a grin!

    I recollect back in 2016 the whole stock of wood chip  that existed in central southern England was heading for Glastonbury .  No one else could get it. Then again that just might be one of those legendary anecdotes that are associated with our festival. Tons had to be dumped in front of the other stage, under the watchful eye and supervision by Michael  just prior to James performance.  There’s always been piles of the stuff just next to cockmill lane over the last few years. 

    That was a long stand. Worth it, was a great set from James.

    DnB is arguably the UK's biggest contribution to dance music so seems fair it is heavily represented!

    Boomtown is literally 50% DnB and people are happy !

    Agreed. I'm from N Ireland where although there are active crews of promotors that provide DnB a a few times a year in Belfast (Drumology/Step/Crilli), it's a genre of music that has been criminally under-represented over here - and this from a city that gave us Calibre! I utterly love the DnB choices at Glastonbury.

    I'm picturing a chill out area with a few canopies up. Could be pretty great if the weather's good. 

    Yeah, that's what I figure - possibly with screens up to show what's happening in the upgraded Spaceport. That way peopel could still technically dance in the forested area and out the back (pretty sure there were screens out there too in 2019).

    If anyone is like me and bloody loves acid-inflected electro, check out Client_03 on Spotify. He/She/They have gone straight onto the must-see list.

    Throw in some dark disco and I'll take ten of those young man.

    Definitely some interesting questions surrounding the Glade area judging by the new map. We can't be far off an announcement...

    My fears of no music in the forest area have be somewhat allayed in other threads - maybe the larger Spaceport (if that's what's on the map) will be used for the likes of Coxy/FBS etc. with acts less likely to cause a crowdpocalypse in the trees?

    One of my mates worked in there in 2017 so we went to it a few times that year.....did get very busy at times and also very hot - perhaps they've made it an open air stage?

    Increase in size would be very welcome - would be concerned about soundbleed over to the actual Glade though - my main worry is that there isn't going to be any music in the actual 'traditional' Glade area? Surely not!
