The rum shack was good craic last year on the Wednesday, not dance music but it was in full swing.

I was thinking of checking it out Wednesday too as never usually make it during the weekend. Glad it's a good party. Might also be a chance to get into the Downlow

Just having this conversation with Child 1, Mez, who goes to his first Glastonbury next week.

The one saving grace is that I am definitely going to see Popof on Friday night after Radiohead, before Blown, and I'm actually really pleased I'll get in the Temple once.

Rest of the festival? Not so much.

I can imagine the excitement in your household is off the scale. Have you passed on the the reins in terms of attention to detail and meticulous planning?

Levels are stratospheric. I'm so glad I've still got four days at work as at present I'm bloody wishing the hours away!

I'm desperately trying not to be that guy to him. But, with no active encouragement, he has adopted my love of the dark and glitchy!

He is pretty organised as he wants to pack a lot in.

On the advice trail for him, what sort of set is Dan Shake likely to play in the Meat Rack? I had assumed it would be disco-y, but could be way off...

Dan Shake in the Meat Rack will be all things disco, there's no doubt about that

Thought I'd drop this in here, as my thread is getting buried (understandably, it's ONLY A WEEK AWAY)

i made a mix of house tracks and remixes based on the lineup and main stagers from the festival, and thought some people might enjoy a listen! The thread is over here:

Edit: bennyhana22, if you like this, we should go for a dance sometime. Other people in our group mentioned you may have spent many an hour in Lovebullets, which is where I want to be this year...

Not too sure, but it's not a lot! if there's someone you really want to see you have to go early and make sacrifices. 

Speaking of NYC Downlow, does anyone know if you can bypass the main queue if you already have a moustache? 

Yes you can.

You can - but there was still a queue for the queue by-pass lass year (Sat night c. 3AM).

I reckon I'll catch a bit of Justice and then head to NYC Downlow to secure my spot for MAW.

Saw Hunee at Parklife this weekend and he was incredible. Well worth a look if you're into that sort of thing.

I'm going to try and catch him Thursday in the Beat Hotel - but yeah super DJ

I'd guess roughly 500

    • 13th Primavera (Thursday was definitely making me feel like this was the cursed year).  Blood Orange was such a party by the end of their set but we all knew that rain storm was approaching.  So gutted Massive Attack didn't play after the false hope of a new rescheduling, especially knowing that Elizabeth Fraser & Horace Andy were backstage with them!  Managed a bit of Melt Banana but was just so over the weather by that point.   Friday was awesome, Rilo Kiley were so much fun.  Never been the biggest Cure fan but made the effort for them after Thursday & Robert Smith sounds like he did back in the 80s.  PinkPantheress & Viagra Boys were also great.   The highlight for me was Sudan Archives on the Saturday, she was stunning & with the Olivia Rodrigo surprise set too it made up for the Thursday sh*t show.  Dijon & Knocked Loose also superb.   Shoutout to Cardiacs on the Tuesday too, they were so LOUD, played a storming set.    
    • OK, never mind, I'll take normal Nine Inch Nails.
    • Probably my least favourite of the five editions I've been to, but still plenty good enough for me to go again. Weirdly, I was just totally running out of stamina a lot earlier into the night than I remember happening in the past. I feel like I missed a lot of the weirder sets on the smaller stages as I was just totally cooked. Not Primavera's fault, obviously. Maybe I'm just getting old - or maybe I need to pace my drinking better...   Anyway - is David Byrne a realistic get for next year? Certainly hoping so.
    • watching clips of the cure in Barcelona, wow 2 hours 25 minute set. That's gonna be tough on the Sunday but can't bloody wait for it
