Yeah, my status on See is that my tickets were given to secure courier on May 28th but I don't yet have an email.

I'm in a training session 10-12 so if it could be out within that window, giving someone time to populate a clsshfinder, ready for me to peruse it over my lunchtime, that'd be grand.

For anyone on the fence, you can catch her full MITA set here: I don't want to spoil the whole thing but I just skipped through a few moments to satisfy my curiosity. It is clear she is still SO nervous performing live, and I found the backing track use at some points to be off-putting, but it's also clear how she very much grows in confidence as the set goes on. Genuinely I am lying here in tears in bed right now cause of how close to (I think, happy?) tears she is when she sees how the crowd respond to her starting DYKTTATUOB. I can only hope her crowd at Glasto is as dedicated as this lot. I know I'll be right there singing every fucking word.

The setlist is here... https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/lana-del-rey/2023/jockey-club-brasileiro-rio-de-janeiro-brazil-53b907f9.html My god. I could not be more hyped 🥲

I chose the bottom option - not got an issue with the "drug heads" as it put it, but it's just not the genre for me. I will go down there this year but it just doesn't really factor in as a big part of my festival. The "specific acts" might have been the option I should have gone for, but they are few and far between that land down there.

Actual LOL at the Ice Spice remix. "Pay no attention to the boyfriend [who made racially insensitive and misogynistic comments about this artist mere months ago] behind the curtain - here is more music!" Taylor.. the mastermind indeed.

The year we want again is 2017. Yes it was a bit too hot for setting up on Wednesday, but after that it was perfect. Few teeny tiny showers to keep the dust down, not too hot, not chilly at all. Repeat of that, please.

I'd love that too. I'd welcome a whole lot of LFL- 13 Beaches would be a treat, too. Really no clue how it's going to go - I seem to recall she used to have a reputation for leaning heavily on her earlier stuff, but she's released so much since last touring that could now be completely different. I could live without The Grants, or LMLYLAW, but to be honest as long as Lana is on that stage and singing some tunes I'm going to be happy.

Thanks, yeah that's kinda what I thought re. the not really knowing. I've gone for the cheap Lebara SIM deal as shared in this thread (thanks everyone) and can only imagine that will have to be better than the absolute shit all service with Three, whatever the case!

I've not done it yet but if Lizzo weren't in the slot she is, I'd be doing this for Lana on the Other stage this year. As it is though I am not going to give up another great show and experience elsewhere on site, just for a good spec.

My regular SIM is with iD (Three) but I have a dual SIM space for another. Can't decide which is the best bet though - a Vodafone or EE option 🤷🏻‍♀️ Is the general consensus that Vodafone will be the better served option on site this year?

So random - apparently it is because it's gotten popular on TikTok? I'm not complaining though! Intrigued to see what the official release sounds like. Also this has reminded me that we are about ten days away from learning what Lana's current festival set shapes up like 😬

Unsure if this has been posted elsewhere, but DJ Yoda's set is going to be on Friday. Depending on the time of that that might be the answer to my Friday evening gap.

Oh my god, I'd blocked that out! 😂 key memory unlocked. And that was a year when a friend and I had to do a second trip to the car, so I lived that nightmare TWICE.

I've loved the atmosphere here in Liverpool all week, I really hope everyone who has visited has had a wonderful time here. We went to a viewing party at a bar in town. Great fun, best night out I've had in ages - little bit of the spirit of Glasto, I think, with purely good vibes and friends for the evening being made just by a a catch of the eye. The place went OFF for Finland - think we were all a bit gutted they didn't take it home.

Did you even read the post you are responding to? Or are all of your senses muddied by the sneering condescension that oozes from every one of your posts?

Thanks for your thoughts on the Dublin shows over the weekend @-TLR-. Reflections on the Sunday show have been niggling at me all week, and you tapped into right where I'm at with them I think. As I said the other day, I'm glad I'm seeing him again next month - because it might be the last time, but also maybe because I'm kind of hoping that show on Sunday wouldn't be my last live impression of him? The band were tight. He is a septuagenarian. It's incredible how he can still put on the show that he does. But some of the choices in the setlist were not the one, for me. It wasn't helped by the crowd around me very much only being there for the encore hits, but that energy could have been better distributed throughout the show in place of - as noted, Nightshift, or Kitty's Back (and I say this as someone who loves the first two albums, and NYC Serenade is my #1 Bruce tune. What I wouldn't give to hear that...) I was very aware that it had been seven years(!) since I last saw him, having seen him four times over the preceding four years, but I guess I wasn't prepared for it to feel so different than it had back then. I dunno. My adoration of Bruce is intensely personal, and I tend to try not to talk about him to anyone because I just can't do it without sounding like a dick.

Acoustic gets it's own poster too, or has done the last few years if I recall.

Saw Bruce in Dublin last night. My fifth time, but went with a friend who hadn't seen him before and she was suitably blown away. I am very glad I'll be seeing him again next month - hate the thought of it ever being the last time.

Speak Now TV announced. July 7th. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr4zC3QOXtU/?igshid=MTIyMzRjYmRlZg== Just so happened that I was up early due to having to catch a flight and actually was able to tune into an Eras livestream as it was announced!

LDR - Video Games (but literally all of it, for me.As long as she is on that stage, I'm going to be in pieces.) Candi Staton - Young Hearts Lizzo - Good As Hell Elton - Tiny Dancer Manics - Motorcycle Emptiness TWOD - I Don't Live Here Anymore Cat Stevens - Where Do The Children Play?

A few clips of Lana on stage with Bleachers performing 'Margaret' at a festival in South Carolina. Good to see her getting back up there in-front of a crowd.

I just watched a few minutes of Calvin's set on the stream and the only word I can think of is that it's.. uncanny. Like I can see shots of the crowd having a good time and singing along but with absolutely no crowd noise in the mix, it just feels like it isn't even live at all. Just a really odd thing.

All paid up 🙌🏻

As many above, Tiny Dancer will be a gorgeous moment. Also stoked for Saturday Night. Honestly though if he keeps Levon and Indian Sunset in the setlist I will quite possibly ascend. Madman is one of my Mum's favourite albums so those tracks are among my peak Elton tunes.
