Badlands

Queues were crazy everywhere for food this year, really dented my choice as I hate standing around. +1 at being underwhelmed by Dorset Smokery chicken wrap. I’ve had a smoked salmon effort there previously that was superb but they didn’t have any. Hawaian poke bowl at Williams Green lovely. Katsu wrap was ok, though their prawn tempura seemed like it was from an Iceland Xmas party pack. Dosa still the number 1 place on site, how they get their Bhajis so crispy is a miracle.

Came on to see if anyone had posted about the park Arcadia incident. Genuinely terrifying, god knows how nobody got hurt. Incredibly dangerous

Mindful that ive seen people have to queue 2nd time when the first queue is still busy. I’d leave it a few hours for the other journey.

I’ve definitely read on hear that it’s happened, though it’s highly unlikely.

Happy birthday Macca! See you next week 😃 God I’m looking forward to this!

An incident in the early days with his ex missus noted in the biography ‘Bruce’.

We’re Little Dragon always there? Cannot remember them being on the either drops

Why? Bruce knows all about hitting lasses. Different times and all that though aye?

Was there? Wednesday has always been quiet compared to Thursday.

Is there less bands from across the Atlantic? be interesting to see the acts that aren’t playing this year that’s causing the criticism? Personally, think it’s topper! A lot of missing bands have played the last few years.

Genuine question coming from someone who has no knowledge of the genres… is their a booking big enough to fill Iicon in there? It’s a huge old space but was rarely busy in 2019. Not necessarily a bad thing mind but it’s odd they make such a big area compared to the other SE places.

I seen him last week and as good as he is, it felt very one paced over a 105 minute set. That he couldn’t fit in the five minute intro to Cold Little Heart was also annoying. Still love the bloke mind, what a talent.

Pleasure to see Wayne & Co in such a small venue last night . Setlist a little more diverse than other times I’ve seen them, coming as a casual fan but still a spiritual life affirming experience. After everything we’ve been through, seeing Do You Realize live nearly ruined me.

Assuming that they’re quite a hit on the old carbon footprint?

Anyone got experience of o2 on-site? I’m getting rid of Three this week and reluctant to go to ee just for the festival

Attended Caribou, Bonobo and Simz recently so that’s freed up plenty of potential clashes for me. Still be a few acts on there to see still. Mods/Midi does feel like a slight dilute to the ethos of the stage mind which is a shame for me

To be fair, I think my original playlist on Apple only had three subscribers and nobody has subscribed to the new version so I wouldn’t go overboard with the admin.. @clarketeIt did update once before failing so will give SBRs next version another blast using SongShift .

I’m going 22 US dates tomorrow with Europe announced later. Seems far too early for a 23 announcement surely?

Oddly enough I go the other way. The pool of heritage acts is massively reducing - I wouldn’t be surprised to see them headlining at some point.

top gear live, university callange and the prime minister

https://music.apple.com/gb/playlist/glastonbury-2022/pl.u-2aoqrdytZ8EVk Due to the limitations of SongShift I’ve had to create a new version.

It’s going to be Sam Fender

You’d assume this close they’d have a contingency for a late drop out. They’ll have a series of acts to slip into places just in case. Standard behaviour surely. Fender seems appropriate if he’s Other Stage as expected.

You cannot see standing availability but there’s loads of seats left in Newcastle at the back of the arena

Due to Ticketmasters dynamic pricing, they’ve now reduced to £130
