UK Outlook for Sunday 19 Jun 2011 to Tuesday 28 Jun 2011:

Generally unsettled on Sunday and Monday with showers or longer spells of rain affecting most parts of the UK. The worst of these conditions are likely towards western areas, with eastern parts seeing some brighter and drier conditions. It will be windy at times in most areas, with a risk of gales especially towards the southwest of the UK. It remains changeable through the rest of the period with further showers or rain likely to affect many parts of the country. However, there should also be some drier and brighter periods, these most likely in the south and southeast of the UK. Temperatures generally a little below average in western parts of Britain but perhaps nearer to average in the east and perhaps warm at times in the southeast.

We need word from the almighty. It worked last year. I'm just a bit concerned that he's worried about making an appearance in case it starts up more rapture rumours.

My father looks down with virtue on your soul. It shall be dry for you and your many brothers.

I refuse to believe that there will be bad weather. It will be as warm and glorious as last years Glastonbury. Plus I dont want to be packing wellies in my bag as it will put the weight over the 15 KG limit for the Ryanair flight out of Dublin :)

    • TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.
    • Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.
    • As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.
    • I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.
