  1. Has anyone done a Glade playlist yet?
  2. Harry Styles to come out with Elton Elton to bring out a number of other collaborators as well.
  3. I've seen a couple of headliners there over my years. Phil Jupitus with the Blockheads were very good and Sinead O'Connor wasn't! She refused to do her hits until the second half of the set and started with experimental new music which quite frankly was shit and I had to leave so missed Mandinka which is the track I love most by her
  4. If they take their own battery operated they may not even need a hook up 😛
  5. The park hasn’t ( unless I missed it)
  6. 5 days off life! Listening to some of the new bands I've discovered on the stage playlists Walking round and seeing the changes on the site (I try and avoid pre festival spoilers) People watching! No better place on earth for seeing joy and madness! The feeling of being home when I walk the site on the Wednesday and feeling my shoulders drop and relax by the Thursday Theatre and circus street performers, it always amazes and fills me with wonder at the variety and talent on show for no extra cost So basically, EVERYTHING 🤩
  7. I hope you're right. If that's the case then I'll be happy exploring other areas and venues
  8. I'm very disappointed, not with the installation and ethos around it (sounds great TBF) but with the disappearance of one of my favourite areas and it not being replaced. Last year everywhere felt very crowded and now being a venue down I can't see it being any better.
  9. you need to put stones in your shoes, ensure there are thousands of people around you, obstacles to negotiate including broken trolleys and drunks and you should be set! Oh yes stay off pavements, ideally tramp through the gardens Hope it goes well
  10. I've gold membership and haven't had any glitches at all. (I don't use my phone to post only my desktop)
  11. from Love fields were do you join the queue. At the gate itself or do you need to walk up the hill to join the back?
  12. if you have a parking ticket for General East then you'll have no problem (weather permitting) regarding location to the gate: Yes unfortunately you'll be in the furthest fields from the gate. I'd recommend taking what you need for the day in one trip, using the lockups to store anything you need for the evening and staying on site until you're done with the day.
  13. that's what I was hoping! Thanks for the answer. I know its pricey but for glamping its so bloody close! Over the years I've done WV, tangerine fields and both camper fields and everyone has always been a slog back. My personal preference is always to camp on site but when my beautiful wife comes she wants a level of posh!
  14. As this could be my last one ever I'm making it a holiday and using Love Fields. One reason is the not needing to join the back of the queue to get in Wednesday when we arrive (at least I hope that's the case) 🤞
  15. 1pm is insane! I agree that B is getter than C. I was in the camper fields last year and the queue on Wednesday morning snaked up past the top of E16 and that's more than 1km from the gate
  16. Good luck to you all. I hope it's a success for you
  17. I'm certainly not making shit up but can't speak for the person it came from!
  18. had some changed information! The plan is: Wizkid and Lana still the same on the Other Fred now Sunday headliner with Lil nas moving to the pyramid to sub elton (apparently) One thing though is that slots can change right up to the end of May and do regularly. Can this be confirmed with the dates of the full line up and timings coming out as I was sceptical ? If its the case then who knows anything really! Oh yes Fever Ray is headlining the Park
  19. i've heard from a very reliable source that Fred will be subbing Lil nas Sunday night on the other. With Wiz kid Friday and Lana del ray Saturday

    Avalon 2023

    Jamie Webster will be rammed (depending on clashes) Hi crowd at Leftfield last year was huge
  21. 28 and fuming! should of had at least 4 more of the dates correct. Enjoyed it though!
  22. Lots of great tips. Mine is hold the tap for the person after you when you’ve washed your hands. It’s amazing how something so simple can brighten up everyone’s day!
  23. All paid up. There is however one back in the pot!
  24. I'm sure that the changes made last year around crowd control were made with the best intention, they were however very poorly executed (in my experience) I am a great believer that local, tacit knowledge cannot be replaced and I do hope they start listening to the stewards who have years and years of experience managing crowds in those areas. Bottom of the Park has always been a struggle during busy times. There is no real way to avoid it when large acts finish. We all know you need to be patient and not worry. Last year felt completely different, I found myself caught up twice and it felt dangerous at times. Let's hope it gets improved for this year
