    depends on how many other devices you are using - think you get blocked if more than 1 refresh per second.

    How quick can you respond if the page changes in case it doesn't stop refreshing - set it to slightly more than that.

    I'm in an office using the office wifi and at least one other person is trying today.

    I’ve just got the holding page on that link.. it’s up and down atm while they’re testing the site.  

    yeah, I just got that now as well actually. 

    Whats the verdict on auto refreshers? should I set mine for every 5 secs or what?

  3. The flags by the front of the stages are some of the most u funny, fucking annoying, stupid as fuck things I have ever seen. I would rank it as one of the worst things about not just Glastonbury but this entire nation as a whole - second to the fast encroaching rise of far right fascism.

    There is something just so quintessentially British about thinking your shit joke is funny enough to obscure an entire audience’s view of something people paid loads of money to see.

    A once in a lifetime chance to see Paul McCartney ruined by some stupid c**ts stupid flag. Fuck off

    Maybe the effect was spoiled as they were so widely rumoured, but the Chemical Brothers on the Spider is a hella exciting booking.

    Yeah that’s quite awesome actually. I just assumed *all* secret sets would be at that sort of calibre. 
     

    George Ezra doesn’t feel like quite the secret. 

  5. Are the majority of secret sets either people who are already playing the festival elsewhere or people who could feasibly been on the original line up anyway? Very little actually surprising or exciting about any of this.

    What do you think the chances are that they got it that wrong 6 days out?

    The thing is, even if you’re 100% right, your tone makes it really hard to take what you have to say seriously.

    A quarter of a million people walking around a valley with a months worth of rain falling in 72 hours.

    What do we reckon?

    I don’t know, that’s why I’m asking…obviously.

    Also another bit of info people might not know:

    If you have an Advanced /  Advance ticket (a ticket for one train and one train only), and this train is cancelled, then your ticket is still valid for the next service, plus you get a full refund.

    eg. If you are booked on the 10.02 and that gets cancelled, and theres a new train at 10.03, then you get a full refund 

    How do I claim that?

    yeah there's been nothing saying you cant' get an earlier train, 10.35 i fell could be a free-for-all but like you i'd much rather struggle to get there but get there early

     

    (just not in my seat pls 😂)

    sorry, have bagsied your seat already!

    yeah was meant to be going at 10.18am on wednesday but there seems to be one running at 10.35 so fingers crossed it's not awful, but it deffo seems like a reduced service

    Mine was meant to be at 12, but Reckon I might risk it and try getting the 10.35

  11. My super off peak train from London Paddington to Castle Cary is now no longer running. Trainline are saying I can get the next valid train.

    but what do you guys reckon my chances are Re: getting an earlier train instead?

    I really enjoyed the opening set too - and the encore too with Cloudbusting was a taps aff moment. 

    I felt quite mixed about it. I might have caught her on a bad night, but it felt a bit like just running through the hits. Although, my memory is foggy as it was so long ago. The theatrical bit was life affirming though. So glad I saw it.

    Not sure if this belongs in the controversial thread or not, but whilst Miss Ross has fantastic taste - she's sung some great songs other people have written for her - I've never rated her either as a singer or a stage presence. Great great songs, but she's never impressed me as a performer.

    The "songs other people have written for her" is such a cheap shot lol. She's hardly some idle vapid pop 90s starlet. The people behind her biggest hits (and some of the biggest, most iconic songs of all time) weren't just "other people" either.

    Songwriters like Holland–Dozier–Holland, weren't faceless hired hands. They workedwith Ross,The Supremes and countless other hugely important Motown artists to make music that will be remembered long after Fontaines DC time in the Radio 6 Playlist sun is over. 

  14. I went to one of those shows 8 years ago. She really did not seem to enjoy playing the kinds of songs most casual listeners would want to hear from her. 
     

    The show opened with her live band rushed through an opening set of “the classics” that were definitely played a bit faster.

    The actual theatrical performance / art / film thing she did was sooo much better by comparison and not the kind of thing that would work at a festival
