Nice one Sam,

A title that will give people the opportunity to look at the post with the view to commenting that you should 'read previous posts'...

But alas... you fooled them... as your real intention was to express your frustration at the lack of new 'rumours' which in itself is an equally pointless post.

The 'rumours' are just 'rumours' and so what you should have used in the narrative of you stealth post was the question 'why no recent confirmations'.

That would have been a much better questions but equally as pointless as the 'arena' and 'rumours' comments.

So... it seems you have done something extra-ordinary here Sam, you have issued a pointless title with a completely different subject matter than the title sugests which is also as pointless anyway. Bravo!

Just messin' with ya Sam, no harm intended - although I am right in what I say ;-)

And just to make up for it... here is a rumour for you - The Beatles Reloaded, starring Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Dhani Harrison and Julian Lennon - beat that for a rumour!!!!

Sorry, just in a sarcastic mood. :D

Night.

As for rumours ... There will allegedly be no drinking, smoking, singing, dancing, any form of behaviour that comes anywhere remotely close to indicating 'punters enjoying themselves', eating, pink elephants, tables, tents, chairs, umbrellas, pixies, gazebos or bl**dy flags in the Arena. This is apparently so as to comply with the recent EU "Enjoying yourself and/or doing what you want to do regardless of what everyone else wants to do is not politically correct enough and clearly demonstrates way too much of a desire for freedom of choice so is therefore banned as of right now" Directive :D

Ah, 'tis true but then again, whilst just about all previous posts/threads will have had you believe that there is no arena and all that at Glasto ... this is most definitely not the case this year of course :)

Glasto 2009 apparently features a shiny new Arena homer%20shriek.jpg

So there you have it. It's now official and all that. Glasto 2009 now with shiny new Arena ! What is the world coming to ? And more to the point, just how silly do all those "not another arena stylee thread, why don't you use the search and read any one of the 'n' thousand other arena stylee threads before posting a new one" peeps feel now :D

Clicky For Linky to play the Glasto 2009 spot the Arena game :)

I have just come back from the library as I was doing some research about Gurus and yes - it DOES seem we need copious amounts of cider. But the ancient scrolls do say that the cider has to be bought by somebody else otherwise it does not qualify as a 'guru cider' drink.

I think we are gonna have a great Glasto Em. :P

    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
