4mm of rain saturday night, the rest looks pretty chuffing fabulous :D

Denial...

Arrrghhh - you were right, whoever said a 6 for today - it's not great news is it? :girlwah:

Anger...

Well, I'm prepared for the worst now. Anything less than having to deal with mud for four days is an improvement from here on in.

Bargaining...

I was hoping for a repeat of 2010. That's why I'm sad.

Depression...

This may be the best approach prepare for the worst then anything better is a bonus. Maybe that's all The Nal was trying to do.

Acceptance...

The five stages of loss and grief ;)

I'm not letting any of u stay in my tent

At this time next week I won't be in my own tent far too much going on. I think I'll be at The Park waiting for John Grant to come on. At least that's my decision today. Don't think it'll change as I bloody love John Grant but from about 18:30 - 22:30 is my most monstrous clashes of the whole weekend and I just can't make up my mind but be assured your tent is not on my list ;)

I'm confused by yr.no's forecast:

should I be adding up the mm's below each day or all the mm's from the detailed forecasts? They give vastly different figures.

Unfortunately, I think you add them up. The summary is showing the middle reading from each day.

Temperature looks about right for a festival to me!

I've enjoyed myself a lot more with cooler days and cloudy nights - all comes down to amounts and times of wet

It looks a bit thunderstormy which means very hit and miss rain and the systems are moving quickly so short and sharp. That doesn't ruin whole days like 07 rain and it's amazing what evaporation, transpiration and a hundred thousand feet can do to dry it out pretty quickly

Currently listening to a Youtube set of him and I think he'll be great as always. My main question now is do I watch Anna Calvi before (whom I do like) to be in a good spot for John or do I go and see the Manics.

I hope it doesn't rain during this, just to keep it weather related :biggrin:

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
