T in The Park 2015

I have never been to a festival where I've been able to spend the entire day in the arena watching bands but with this line up I think I could.

It just saddens me that every time I come on here I see links to articles about people getting an erection over a birds nest.

In the mean time, I'm gonna go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint and wait for this all to blow over.

Is there a specific date set for when we will officially know if T is going ahead or not? The later they leave it the larger the whole burned in my wallet for train tickets gets. I (and many others I'm sure!) could really do with a definitive answer asap...

The council will make their decision towards the end of may. I think somewhere around the 20th

Some good news (kinda). RSPB said it can go ahead if they meet strict guidelines.

Fireworks and lighting are being restricted, and they're enforcing no-go zones around the estate.

Sorry to kind of take the subject off T but i have a question which i am pretty sure you guys are the best people to ask. Basically recently i've not been doing well with securing tickets for gigs in high demand (biffy barras and Muse barras) and i'm wondering if people have some idea for the Drones tour? So Drones is out on June 8th and they've announced that they're playing at Download and the big weekend this summer. Most likely the Drones tour will be over winter 2015/spring 2016, this kind of makes it a non stadium tour due to the time of year, meaning they will probably play the hydro which will be yet another ticket race which i'm fed up with now as i never seem to be the lucky one that gets tickets. Glasgow's summer sessions has announced 2 headliners now last year they only two but the year before they had 3, any chance Muse could play that?

Read on the TITP FB page that RSPB restrictions mean 1/3rd of the main arena is wiped out and 500M buffer placed on Slam Tent means it can't be in the main arena. What were DF thinking when they chose this site, it's been farce from start to finish. Don't think there's a plan B, it would have been announced by now. REFUND!!

RSPB won't oppose it if...

  • A 500m buffer zone until mid-June, when the birds are “likely to lay eggs, incubate them and raise chicks”.
  • A permanent buffer zone of 200m where no T staff or revellers are allowed to go after mid-June.
  • No lights or fireworks shining directly at the nest.
  • The dance music tent, big wheel and funfair should be at least 500m away from the osprey nest.
  • A bird expert on site who can stop any activities that may cause disturbance to the ospreys.

    • It does feel like there's a push back against net zero from both left and right, but especially the right. Probably since Trump I guess, but even before Trump you had the tea party and Sarah Palin thing, but over here the right were on board with the issue of climate change and the need to address it, from Thatcher through to Johnson. That has now changed, first it was the populist right, not it is mainstream, with Badenoch making the two prerequisites for standing for the Tories being against net zero, and for leaving the ECHR. You can be an ex neo-nazi as long as you are against net zero. At least many now seem to accept the climate change is happening and it is caused by us, but they now say well it will be a nice mediterranean climate so lets bin net zero anyway and just have fun f**k all that woke green sh*t. But also the left, with various trade union leaders and blue labour types going on about net zero being bad for the economy and the need for reindustrialisation as we head back to the glory days of the 50s when we all worked down pit or something, ignoring the amount of industries and jobs created by net zero. The greens obviously are still firmly behind the net zero thing, but the party is also full of nimbys who are worried about hedgerows and hedgehogs and votes, and even the leadership have realised that there isn't votes in climate doomerism but there definitely is in bashing billionaires and Israel. I guess the main driver of net zero policies in the country is still Miliband which is probably why everyone seems to be f**king terrified of him, the mad freak and his renewables. He is out of the energy department, but his replacement is hardly a petrolhead, and he isn't in the treasury doing terrifying things like spending money, but he is in the foreign office which is maybe a good place for him because climate change is a global issue and its going to take a global effort.
