i have bt for free with broadband, and amazon prime cos i wanted free delivery, and now have access to sky via this hooky service (need to set it up, works great apparently cost £10pm) will be better than finding random internet streams.

Would be interested in knowing what this is, if you don't mind posting on public forum?

Please tell me this is a parody

[Rubbish Indie bands]

I once threw a kettle over a pub

 

Bet you've never been on Blockbusters though

[Biggest downer at Glastonbury]

Having my almost untouched bag of festival goodies nabbed by security. I'm sure he made a tidy profit on that

[Weather thread 2015]

The best forecast in years, yet if you google 'Glastonbury weather' the first link is a Mirror headline screaming about a "Glastonbury mudbath". No link posted because f*ck giving those c*nts traffic.

[In seven days time.....]

Getting home from work to start packing. But maybe just half a spliff first...

[1st June - Announcement]

Fall out Boy George Michael Bolton

[I'm not sure I can quite believe it...]

Chuffed for you P&P, see you there.

[Glastonbury Festival bans sale of Native American-style headdresses]

They ain't devil horns, nor pubes. For reference please see 'Can we talk about drugs please?', or similar

[Weirdest thing you saw at Glastonbury 2014?]

Yep, that's what I'm talking about. Bizarre. That's not a moral position - I don't care enough, but it's just strange to me that one of the few places in the world which doesn't require anything other than what it is to have a transcendent experience is attended by a minority of people who'd rather eliminate it from their memory banks by experiencing the same sensation they'd get anywhere else.

Do you find the people with hangovers so strange too? Because they're the ones who'll have trouble remembering the night before.

[Acts that should be invited back from the last few years]

Janelle Monae for me, just because I missed her last time and have regretted it ever since. Would love to see her headline a stage

[So... why do you think they opted for a quick sale?]

I imagine this is what they're always aiming for, they're just getting better at it each year. Impressive to get so many sold so quickly, but I do wish it would take a bit longer, rewarding commitment

[Why are people reluctant to vote for the Green party?]

while I completely understand you doing that - it's something I've done myself for the same reasons - it is ultimately a self-defeating scenario.

If you vote for someone on the basis that they're the lesser of two evils and you hope they'll win (when using the facts of previous votes as your guide), it guarantees that the person you'd prefer to vote for will never get your vote or anyone else's who uses the same basis.

It's essentially a vote to confirm the status quo. Politics in this country needs more than the same three chords ( ) again and again.

[Why are people reluctant to vote for the Green party?]

Not voting for them because it's a wasted vote is daft though. If you like their policies, voting for anyone else is more of a wasted vote.

[If I had my own festival...]

Costa Rica vs Greece on big screens, every stage, all day. Can't beat it

[World cup at Glasto]

Where would have been bigger?

[Headliner Rumour]

and other dreams don't come true nor have silver linings.

Sometimes I should have a little more patience before posting.

[The Anti Late Night Action Faction]

If Radiohead don't headline the Pyramid I'm going to self-immolate in protest.

Hope this helps.

[Guess 3 headliners and 3 Subs, get it right and I'll buy you a growler.]

Arcade Fire

Meatball marinara

Fleetwood Mac

Steak and Cheese

Elbow

Italian BMT

All footlongs. Obviously

[Loyalty Scheme or over the counter tickets]

I happy to take on board any decent suggestions but as yet I've seen very few. More phone lines wouldn't be a bad thing but for it to make any significant difference you'd probably have to double or triple them.

[House Music]

Booooo, where's my house music bamber?

[House Music]

It's Friday night Bamber, hit me up please my friend
