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!

    • I’d expect U2 & Muse to be options too. 
    • I see there's yet another article doing the rounds about Madonna doing BST, and not Glastonbury.   That could be right, but given there'll be plenty of tickets to shift for BST, could it not just be false info doing the rounds to protect that?? Not that I think Madonna would struggle to shift tickets, or that Glastonbury would have that much impact, but still - would probably still make sense to protect ticket sales when it's announced?
    • Given BST recently I wouldn't expect it as rock heavy as that. I kinda am expecting it'd be where The Cure play though as I'm expecting a second year touring of them
    • Id suggest they would need another new album before they play again - Otherwise the show is going to probably be very similar to the one they played at the last festival.
    • Absolutely not, I dont know of it selling out but they needed TFG and Skyvip to shift them. Biffy aren't either and they didn't go to TFG and I wouldn't say Kasabian are either and they sold it out the quickest. Liam Gallagher did Finsbury Park as well and subbed the Pyramid Stage, Noah Kahan did two nights at BST and subbed the Pyramid though that's a rare one. Finsbury itself will definitely not grant you top spot, that field can hold 100k      That's fair. I'm definitely in the camp myself that Fender and Harry are most likely.
