  1. Not difficult to forget a Beady Eye set in fairness
  2. Couldn't agree more with this. It's like drip feeding your Christmas presents over the whole of November and December.
  3. The Temple doesn't seem a great fit for him. Thought it was only drum n bass?
  4. Didn't get tickets in 2016. Went on holiday instead and pretty much forgot the festival was even happening. Helped that it wasn't a vintage year on the weather.
  5. Anybody know if the Bike to Glasto luggage service will run this year? Official website suggests that it will but the bike to Glasto site hasn't been updated since last year. With less than 2 months to go, I'd have thought they'd be starting to take bookings by now. Don't fancy cycling with 5 nights worth of stuff!
  6. I'd say struggling to sell out 2008 had a lot more to do with the horrific weather the year before than with Jay-Z headlining.
  7. Progressive house is generally under represented in the dedicated electronic music areas (silver hayes and SE corner). Glade area has generally been my refuge for some good house.
  8. Also made Bush out to be heroes by being so dull that the crowd calmed down. That wasn't a conscious decision by the band, its just the nature of a Bush gig.
  9. Hopkins looked he was loving life during the set as well
  10. This was incredible. Amazing end to an absolute banger of a set.
  11. John Digweed on the glade Friday night and John Hopkins on San Remo Saturday night were the electronic highlights for me. Both absolutely stonking sets.
  12. During idles at the other stage it looked like someone set off an actual firework in the crowd. Did I imagine this?
  13. This is a change for the better. Last thing I want when I get back to my tent is being kept awake all night by wrecked people who have nowhere else to go.
  14. I really hope this was a very subtle Alan Partridge reference rather than a simple typo
  15. Thought they were very good. It's hard to imagine a truly great gig in that venue though. It's awful.
  16. They were incredible last night. I've always been a huge fan but their live show has gone up a notch. Assume if they were playing the festival this year, they'd have been on the first poster though.
  17. It indicates that there's a ceiling at which case numbers will level off and then drop though as immunity builds. I'm as optimistic as I've been that this winter is going to be nowhere near as bad as feared.
  18. Immense - will be in for Brixton. Likely West Holts headliners?
  19. Agree with every word of this. It's a policy brought in on political grounds not medical grounds. No evidence at all that it makes going to a gig any safer.
  20. Drumsheds cancelled their first show of the year. No explanation given other than "circumstances outwith our control". Hopefully not a sign of things to come for them.
  21. Exactly this. We haven't considered putting restrictions in place for flu previously, no matter how bad the flu season has been. Provided we're not at risk of exceeding hospital bed capacity, there's no reason to start now.
  22. I'm curious as to what the answer would be if you're suggesting it's not safe for a club full of vaccinated people to dance? If this isn't safe then presumably it'll never be safe and so mass events, Glastonbury included, should cease to exist?
  23. It's a digital ID system through the back door. Won't be going anywhere soon without scanning a QR code.
