If you're into your dance, the new levels stage at silver hayes is certainly worth checking out. 😃
Agreed. In fact all of Silver Hayes is good now. New management took over in the last couple of years and they really made a big improvement in 2023.

the Glade stage has moved a bit and is less gladey. Sadly there was a diseased tree that needed felling. William's green has gone and has been replaced by Carhenge. Carhenge has a lot of love.
But in the place where the stage called "The Glade" was, we have Glade Dome, which is way more gladey than the stage called Glade has been for years.

Anyone else seeing "too many requests" in the console even though the refresh rate isnt high at all?
You get it even if you let it run for 20 seconds. I'd ignore.

@stuartbert two hats will secret glasto be operating in this neck of the woods ?
I expect so. It's way too early for us though.

Not in any particular order, just as I thought of them, but Kae Tempest may well be the best of the lot.
I've left the videos as links so as not to clog the place up.
Ah there's one glaring omission, so it's now 11
Black Eyed Peas in 2004 an underrated gem. They turned up and just entertained the f**k out of us. Proper showbiz.

from the top of my head, I am sure I have missed a few
sh*t, can I have 11 and swap Elbow for The Cure and Jagwar Ma please? 😁
Oh and Dizzee Rascal was great in 2009.
10 is hard, especially when you think for more than 5 minutes!

In no particular order, mainly because it's been the 21st century for such a long time, I can't remember
Radiohead 2017
The xx 2017
Kae Tempest 2017
Battles 2008
John Grant 2016
Underworld 2016
Elbow 2014 *
Gorillaz 2010
Chas'n'Dave 2005 (I sh*t you not)
Confidence Man 2022
* Yes I know that it was essentially a carbon copy of the superior set they played in 2011, but I wasn't there.
I'm sure I've forgotten loads that are better than some of these, but this is what springs to mind.

Bloody pedants, splitting hairs. 😃
I used to work with someone who regularly accused me of being a pendant. Obviously, I couldn't correct him.

Oh ok, well that makes a lot more sense now... You know, you're really hard to read sometimes, probably why you're often misunderstood. 🙈
I don't read her comment like that though, I read it as his songwriting and performance was so good, it makes many who came before him's efforts look like the work of children. But maybe I'm wrong. 🤷♂️That's how I read it too.

Yeah, provably right but must have all passed o'Conor by given her words.
For that song, it's not just a costume, it's intrinsic to the personal journey he's been on over the last ten years or so, living with a chronic auto-immune disorder that has given him extreme physical and mental health issues.
There's nothing new under the sun, but this version is elevating his influences to a whole new level. Incidentally, the fact that a lot of this has been done before is directly addressed in the song itself.

Hello stuartbert,
I was just wondering, have you a shortlist?
Not at the moment, a bit burnt out in hedonism in general.

Just seen this thread pop up. I'm still not going. Quite looking forward to picking a less intense festival for next year though.

Yea it's going to be rapid, feedback mechanism after feedback mechanism.
Meanwhile most still bury their heads ostrich style.
The deniers are out in force like never before on Twitter. None of it is real apparently.

Yes, they were visible from the Pyramid field during Lizzo, too. One had letters on it but I couldn't make out what they were or if it was an advert!
Look like adverts to me. No idea what the grenade was for though!

Same. As I recall it was during Jacob's audience choir. It all fell apart for a few seconds as our 'laaaaa' when to 'oooh!'
I remember the distinct feeling that Jacob had done it with his musical magicianship. They seemed to be in time with the music!

I'm a noob at only 17 times compared to most on this thread, but I need at least one year where I've decided not to go, rather than having my hand forced by getting married/having children/not getting a ticket or leave. And I haven't since 1997.
I found myself talking about old times and things I'd done 10 years ago in the place I was standing rather than getting on and enjoying things.
It's great to know so many people from here, but to catch up with everyone meant using this stupid black mirror far more than I wanted to.
It's a big old world, I want to go on holiday to different places with my family and attend my daughter's last sports day next year.
I'll be back, just not in 2024. I think I'd made my mind up before the bands started this year. I need a way to approach the festival that's appropriate to my age - I was 18 when I started and I most certainly am not any more!

First Glastonbury in 10 years - what's new?!

I remember it being announced in 2014 as the year they removed the portaloos in-site. I wasn't there 2011-2013, but they were defs there in 2010.
