This'll be number 12 for me and I don't even know where the Palais is. Can't see it on the map although I'm sure it's there? I saw a couple of things in the Cinedrome at Green Man last year and it was a great way to spend some time so might make my way to the Palais this year...if I can find it.

Kanda Bongo Man on West Holts looks like it'll be a great time.

So what's the standard message everybody is getting at the moment? I'm getting this:

Pretty certain the closing montage in 2008 was Sweet Caroline. And possibly Rolling In The Deep in 2016?

Interesting lineup. Only First Aid Kit and Sudan Archives are in my Spotify library although I did enjoy the latest Young Fathers album so glad to see them on there. A lot of acts that I've heard bits of pieces of and am looking forward to delving deeper into. Already enjoying my first listen of the playlist more than I enjoyed last years so it looks promising.

Did a search but can’t see this mentioned anywhere… A video game called Somerville came out earlier this year and is currently on Xbox Gamepass. Thought I’d boot it up and give it a go as it’s developed by people who have been in on some games I’ve liked in the past (Inside and Limbo for those in the know.) It’s a 2D-3D side-scrolling puzzle game. About 45 minutes in and I stumble across an area filled with tents and all of a sudden… It’s pretty damn awesome. I won’t ruin it as there are some cool moments as you work your way through this section which lasts for about 30-45 minutes. The game has been pretty average aside from this but thought it was worth bringing up. Anyone else seen this? Would they have had to get permission from GFL for this sort of thing?

I’ll be there! Managed to get 4 of 9 at about 09:25. Almost got the other 5 and got to the screen after the enter registrations page but every time I clicked proceed I just got kicked back to the holding page.

Finally got through on a browser refreshing at the 30 second interval. Initially got chucked back in the queue when I hit confirm on the final step. I hit back on the browser however and it took my right back to the final page and this time I was able to confirm. Hang in there folks.

Re: Long Blondes

Good times - thanks both!

Only been the once back in 2019 and can’t remember noticing one but I’m assuming there’s a separate re-entry queue on the Thursday? Debating just queuing up with the tent initially to setup camp and then going back to the car straight away for some of the heavier stuff.

Can I just check - I bought my ticket via FanTicks which the seller has forwarded onto me. The bottom of the transaction & customer numbers on the right hand side of the ticket are slightly cut off by the Green Man Banner across the middle of the page. Are all tickets like this? Just want to make sure the ticket isn't dodgy.

I’m the only one of my group of 7 to have it. First time too. Started to get a scratchy throat after Di. Put it down as too much singing and the dusty air. Negative yesterday but positive this morning. I don’t really feel much worse than I normally do post festival tbh.

Just managed to pick up a single ticket on Fanticks. All aboard the Green Man train!

Bollocks. Urgent job in work so can’t obsess over it. Bad timing!

You’ll definitely have at least one stop. My coach from Plymouth is less than 2 hours and we always stop once on the way.

Nothing against it at all. 9 times out of 10 they don’t even check your ticket when getting on the coach so they won’t know if you got on or not!

Mine was an initial sale ticket from 2019 and it’s a Thursday coach.

Got mine too - 05:30 from Plymouth.

Technically tomorrow is later this week…

And I’ve just had this!

The Music still exist?! That seems weird to me in itself!

Sleaford Mods seem so out of place on West Holts. Glad to have confirmation of Simz on Friday. My headliners are now locked in.

Logged onto here for the first time in over a year. Evening all!

Hot Chip was my plan for Saturday night in 2019 but 3 or 4 songs in and I really wasn't feeling it. Had a snooze on the hill and then went for a wander around the site. Ended up in the Theatre and Circus fields I think. Great evening.
