I suppose its just are way to be pessimistic to the last. I refuse to infuse any pessimism myself. I do wonder how an 8 can have any rain mentioned at all. Its two way from the top mark, which would have to be the hottest weather ever imagined possible surely?

I wish I was not so hung up on this bloody weather thread :unsure:

OK so I've been trying not to get too carried away with the forecasts... But since its looking like this Glasto could see the my best Glasto weather since 94 ..... I thought Id see if I could dig out a weather chart from the end of June 1994. Glasto 94 was Sun City.. Wall to wall blue sky and hot from Wednesday to Sunday....with apparently a spot of rain on Sat night which was so pathetic I didn't notice it. WoW will remember...!! :P

1994 here

2009 here

Erm...spot the difference?!? Bit more of a breeze, from a slightly less warm place....but if anything, this year is looking better???! :):unsure:

Need to go and touch lots of wooden things now... :)

1995 was the first year I went and it was a heatwave..

can you get the chart from June 1995? I had a look at the website you got it from but could not make head nor tail of it!

:unsure:

      Truck 2026

      First time for me, really enjoyed it. Nice venue, nice weather, good vibes, etc.   Notes on performances: CMAT's a great performer - seen her live twice now.  GANS are my favourite new act since Big Special, and live they're fantastic. Fellow Brummies too, so I'm all about that. The album's a bit disappointing though. Primal Scream were great, although I felt the crowd seemed a bit muted. The Libertines sounded knackered. Not sure they're suited to a festival. First time seeing The Royston Club, thought they were very good - the tent seemed to be full of kids on each others shoulders singing along. I'm all about that. First time seeing the K's, a bit disappointed. Didn't like his voice, and I felt like every song sounded the same as the last one. Sarajevo is a good tune, though. It still sounds like all the others, just a bit better.  The Maccabees and Two Door Cinema club were a but underwhelming, but Pelican by the Maccabees is a banger. It all sounded a bit Travis/Early Coldplay to me though. The Wombats took me by surprise - I expected 1 1/2 hours of 'Let's Dance to Joy Division' style indie-landfill, so I was surprised to hear that some of the rest of their stuff had dynamics and range. I still don't think they're any good, but I can't say they didn't surprise me either. Just not my thing.   Surprise of the weekend for me was Rizzle Kicks. Never listened to them before, but they got me out of my tent and into the arena as I was trying to nurse a hangover and I thought it was a blast.    Will probably go next year too.

      Not really anything to say other than the fact I'm down at Opeth and this has been a cracking summer by and large here. Few duds, plenty of sellouts, strong weather, and the craft beer is cheaper than the regular bar. Winner winner, chicken dinner!
