Bear in mind that we all set off for the festival last year expecting heavy showers on Saturday night\Sunday...

Even when you're walking through the gates, it's never too late to demand no rain and to make no compromise on the aformentioned demand for no rain.

After 3 days of being hung on the washing line my boxers are finally dry. This I'm taking as a good omen (and not my laziness)

Well I'm only 15 miles from the site and even with all the rain from the last two weeks and lunchtime I can still walk on my lawn and not get my socks damp! There is still hope! Its 18 degrees out and a good breeze so drying up nicely

wasn't that 2005? (I wasn't there 2009)

Anyway, agreed. 2005 there was so much rain, I think a month's worth or something, in a few hours, and still could sit on the grass most places 24 hours later. The busy market areas, infront of the main stages - and the places that got severly flooded never really recovered - but the rest drained pretty well I thought.

Mr Devonhahammer unfortunately disappeared with the heavy-handednness during the dark days of german-beer-hall-soft-porn-gate. let's hope in the name of the glastonbury spirit our mod offers an open invitation for him to return.

anyone know what the ensembles models, etc are today....? WOW and that devon chap have gone quiet..

anyone else know vaguely what they are talking

This my first post since 'it' all happened. I miss the old NFR NFC, I miss DH, I miss the pictures, I miss Boilermans daily chant. I am a girl too shock horror. it was handled badly. I feel something that was so good has gone, I am sad for that.

    • Hush cancelled with a similar event now taking place at EartH and Cate Le Bon doing her own show, maybe others have rearranged gigs?
    • Yeah I find it strange, if they were just a silly act then they wouldn't be headlining the 3rd stage. The likes of vengaboys yes but they aren't doing their own sizeable arena dates.  That looks very weak for what they could actually get, but GC aren't playing 3rd main stage with The 02 and the Coop arena and in a same slot that KSE are. MIW aren't carrying those two dates either, neither are Turnstile and Parkway Drive tickets didn't play out. You gotta do better than Ghost, Blink and Deftones though.    I think you are a bit even if that is not the intention. I'm genuinely shocked they booked them for the avalanche and I think it'll be rammed out of the tent. While ADTR will obviously get a lot too, many Download attendees will had the chance to see them at Slam Dunk. I think 90s fest getting Scooter was class and while there would have been some Download crossover, the Slam Dunk crossover given acts you get on the avalanche will be a different level.
