CAKE

i dont generally get involved in the rumour game but a fairly reliable friend of mind has told me that cake may be playing this year. He said he got it from a reasonable source as well, so here's hoping.

I would be more than please if this happens. Absolutely fantastic live band.

I was gutted a few years ago when they cancelled

The funniest thing I've seen in my LIFE was at a Cake concert out in Perth, when the band had left the stage before coming back for an encore. The crowd, including a monstrously fat guy around the age of 30, were all chanting "Cake! Cake! Cake!" and so on. Just remembered that and it's brightened up my day. Thanks for that.

I didn't realise they'd pulled out in 2005 and listened to Amublance Ltd's dirge for 10 mins before I realised I wasn't going to hear my theme song Short Skirt Long Jacket. I was not happy.

As for cake in the festival- there's a bakery stand near the lock up tent down from the Kidz Field; there was one in the Markets area that lies kind of between the John Peel Tent and the Dance village area and if you go up into the green fields there's loads of local groups and committees selling homemade cakes and such like to raise money. In 2007 we had a break from the pouring rain in a School tent and ate some fabulous coffee cake and banana cake with steaming hot chocolate.

    • Absolutely - it's a double edged sword. Weezer is the only one I can recall them amending, but since the last fallow year we've had Phoebe Bridgers, Courteeners, Myles Smith, Yungblud and The Vaccines (and I suppose Djo count?) play very small slots on Woodies for artists their size. That's not even including secret sets, and ones like Sigrid and Tom Odell that spilled out of the tent. See also: Wet Leg and Barry Can't Swim on the Park   Part of me loves that this happens because getting a big artist in a small slot feels intimate and unique to Glastonbury from any other festival, but it does come at the cost of feeling anxious that they'll shut the stage down before you get there!
    • Lovely Brexit doc on bbc2 for anyone who wants to relive those golden years.
    • I think some folks are underestimating how many millennials, now into heavier music, were genuinely also into things like techno and happy hardcore in the 90s and early 00s. Scooter may be about is commercialized as it gets when it comes to happy hardcore and techno, but for many, they won't be just a 'silly act' they will be a genuine nostalgia act. 
    • Can anyone share please as can’t access the app 
    • Someone said something along the lines of "the lows were really low but they highs were really high" and I think that sentence sums up my ps experience this year. Thursday was a downer (even though I got to see men I trust, geese, oklou and fcukers), but the weather, the missed shows and the uncertainty (those comms...) made it a bad day. Friday and Saturday on the other hand where rly good, a bunch of amazing shows each day (The Cure one was quite something), that surprise on Saturday...   Will be back next year, hope they get another impressive lineup as this year (quality and quantity wise) and that tickets and  primarily hotels don't get much more expensive.
