2005. Was great and then turned into a disaster.

This year is going to be a disaster too. I know, it, you know it and Eavis knows it. Big thunderstorm, site gets flooded, we all churn up the site and we're fucked.

Get out.

I think a light morning rain wouldn't be too bad, stop by mid day ish on one of the days. It won't flood.

You remember how in about 2007 they spent 750 grand on improving drainage and you're talking utter shite?

Thats a myth. It was still a mudbath for parts of 2009 and 2011. There just wasn't the same amount of rain. You're kidding yourself. Time to live in the real world. The fact that the weather has been nice is a bad thing. It simply can't last.

Its going to be awful. Hailstones the size of snooker balls, swirling gusts of unforgiving wind, relentless rain, winged serpents descending from the skies and snatching folk away like subbuteo men, the ground opening up like The Great Pit of Carkoon with loved ones dropping into the bleak darkness forever, widespread fires, swarms of locusts hollowing through peoples eye sockets, Bryan Ferry playing on the West Holts. Really, really bad.

Didn't accidentally put acid in your corn flakes this morning did you?

I remember a bad trip like that, except the Bryan Ferry, never got that bad

I think we're talking a different scale of mudbath tbh. Maybe a couple of acres got that bad (crossing into Dance from camping, path through Park...) but the rest was hunky dory

If noone's using a canoe it's not really wet

    • Let's hope you're right - having secret set by Olivia Rodrigo would be huge. It might even overshadow the Thursday trainwreck.   We'll see in a couple of hours.
    • Yet again we’re missing the WH Sunday reggae slot
    • Occident has got larger over the years and there's relatively little overlap with mbv and OR fans that I think it would work fine as it would divide the crowd so effectively.   They don't even need to give the biggest stage from an optics perspective either, this would be billed as a secret short set and used to promote her new album. 
    • Really like this! Few artists a bit low I reckon like the Reytons, Yard Act, the Royston Club and Florence Road but I’d absolutely take this!
    • Yeah Olivia Rodrigo walked right past me when leaving the crowd during The Cure set.   I had to escape where I was in the crowd so was just chilling in the bottom left corner when she walked through with a couple of others.    Thought it was her or someone who looked incredibly like her but no-one else seemed to pick up on it, either not bothered or just too engrossed in their own conversations to not notice..
