Keep an ear out if the times change because this came from Tim Burgess and not the organisers. Just thought I'd let you know so you don't all come hunting for me if they're not there and you miss it ha

I seem to be hearing a lot about The Mono LPs recently through here, so I checked out their music and I must admit I'm very impressed and looking forward to seeing them, seems a few other people are too looking at the other thread about the forum meet up. 2pm on Friday, grabbing a real ale and heading straight over to the House Party on Friday afternoon to watch them seems great to me.

Here's my question though - has anybody else heard the rumour about a possible special guest appearance on stage with them? I don't know if this is true but who do you reckon it could be if it is true, I don't know enough about their background to hazard a guess.

Just an idea...

If the big screen is going to be there again back of the main stage, during the gaps in performances, would it be possible to show announcements for the other stages?

At the moment the BBC site is saying Friday Light Rain, Saturday Sunny Intervals Sunday Light Rain. Looking out the window at the steady rain where I am I'd settle for that ! I do think that any BBC forecast longer than a day ahead is put together by Russel Grant though.

One statistic / Urban Myth that sticks in my head is that the weather forecast has a 60% chance of being right, but there is a 70% chance of the weather being the same as yesterday..

    • First time for me, really enjoyed it. Nice venue, nice weather, good vibes, etc.   Notes on performances: CMAT's a great performer - seen her live twice now.  GANS are my favourite new act since Big Special, and live they're fantastic. Fellow Brummies too, so I'm all about that. The album's a bit disappointing though. Primal Scream were great, although I felt the crowd seemed a bit muted. The Libertines sounded knackered. Not sure they're suited to a festival. First time seeing The Royston Club, thought they were very good - the tent seemed to be full of kids on each others shoulders singing along. I'm all about that. First time seeing the K's, a bit disappointed. Didn't like his voice, and I felt like every song sounded the same as the last one. Sarajevo is a good tune, though. It still sounds like all the others, just a bit better.  The Maccabees and Two Door Cinema club were a but underwhelming, but Pelican by the Maccabees is a banger. It all sounded a bit Travis/Early Coldplay to me though. The Wombats took me by surprise - I expected 1 1/2 hours of 'Let's Dance to Joy Division' style indie-landfill, so I was surprised to hear that some of the rest of their stuff had dynamics and range. I still don't think they're any good, but I can't say they didn't surprise me either. Just not my thing.   Surprise of the weekend for me was Rizzle Kicks. Never listened to them before, but they got me out of my tent and into the arena as I was trying to nurse a hangover and I thought it was a blast.    Will probably go next year too.  
    • Not really anything to say other than the fact I'm down at Opeth and this has been a cracking summer by and large here. Few duds, plenty of sellouts, strong weather, and the craft beer is cheaper than the regular bar. Winner winner, chicken dinner! 
    • Pink Floyd night on sky arts time for me  to wallow in nostalgia and remember some incredible gigs
