Well, looking at that Metcheck Glasto forecast they can f**k RIGHT off. I don't use Metcheck anymore as it's f**ked me over so many times. Useless twunts.

One of my compadres tells me this morning that's he's invested considerable money in some good quality waterproof trousers and a jacket. Purely as a sacrificial offering to the Gods of Fate you understand. If we all prepare for a monsoon, they'll realise we respect them and leave us alone.

As an aside, it looks like the lovely weather we've had all week is going to change to thundery showers just in time for the RATM gig at Finsbury on Sunday. I'm more than prepared to get pissed wet through on Sunday as a further karmic offering. That way I'm sure that Glasto will remain dry and warm, (with a 90% chance of alcohol induced dehydration and sunstroke).

I am also preared for it to chuck it down right through my wedding day on the 19th june, if it can just see it's way to clearing up nicely for the 23rd - 27th.

Great forecasts above guys but just a little bit of humour from last years brief but powerful downpour

I called home and someone had been watching jonathon ross on the box (i know the shame) and he had a weatehr map up which showed almost unintrrupted sunshine except for a gurt black cloud over the glastonbury area.

What a larf hey, you couldnt make it up

I'm attending 3 weddings in the space of 5 weeks later in the year. Now I havent told any of them yet, but I'm more than happy for it to be cold, raining, blowing a gale on all three of those days, in exchange for 5 long, hot, dry, sunny days at Glastonbury.

(Already had my wedding day this year, and it was sunny - sorry about that!)

Actually - it's my dad's birthday on June 19th (it's normally around the same sort of time every year, conveniently).

Speaking on behalf of my father, I too will except torrential rain on this day as long as it clears for Glasto.

My mate's coming. She is a renowned rain god(ess) - Rhodes in August, Egypt in Oct, Peru's Nazca Lines, the list goes on. So, seeing as it frequently p*sses it down at Glasto (I've not yet experienced one without at least heavy downpours), I am VERY confident that her presence will have the opposite effect and we'll have a scorchio fest to remember.

BRING IT ON :D

PS If I am wrong, who cares, it'll still be awesome and I'll be p*ssed on the pear cider ;)

Er hum! I AM the missus! Luckily the Mr is also of the same mind!

It's my mother i've got to convince - she's actually joining us at Glastonbury on the Friday and I have tried to explain to her how difficult she'll find it if it's muddy (she's 68) but she still says we've got to have a sunny wedding! i have to keep working on her!

    • If the below link works - thats interesting.   While I don't particularly put much stock in that account as a source (never seen it before though, tbf), and I can pick a hole or two (see below) in what he says - the timing of it is a week before I had the Fontaines '27 stadium info (same stadium he says on there, Tottenham). The info, or part of it, matches up.   Holes I'd pick: I'd have to watch again but I THINK he says 'end of year' for Tottenham - not possible, for a number of reasons, though he's probably just got his words mixed up there. It's Summer '27. He also says Glastonbury is/would be based on how the album does. That doesn't stack up to me, unless it was a 2028 thing. I suppose that could stack up, but still seems a bit of an odd approach. I would personally still expect it to be 2027 alongside the stadium gigs, IF they are gonna do it, though I've still not got a Scooby when the album is gonna drop, only that the tour is due for Spring (or early) next year.   Interesting, nonetheless.   https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaOB3Q9qkwW/
    • I was hoping that they would just do a tour like they were set to in 2020, rather than having Download as their UK appearance. If they are at DL, I would be surprised to see them headline. I think they sub under Deftones or SOAD 
    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over.
