From Carl Cox on Facebook:

"I am playing 2 other parties that weekend at Glastonbury that are techno gigs. All is not lost. ?"

He played at arcadia in 2016. He was nails too. The best Carl Cox set I've seen in years.

Watched him the night after at Bez's flying bus and he wasn't great.

If the sound is as good for JH as it was for James Blake in 2015, that's going to be absolutely incredible...

And his live AV projections on a stage that big will be spectacular.

@zero000 - see you there...!

It's going to be intense. His set on the glade in 2014, has to be up there as one of my all time Glastonbury highlights.

And we’re perfectly positioned to beat the Pyramid/Other crowds...ace.

This could end up being the deciding factor between Jon and Tame for me. Reckon a few of our crew will be up for Jon as well and I think it's only me to have seen him recently.

I'm still working my way through the Glade acts. There's a few I've had no luck with - anyone know Martin Hogar?

Think it should be Martin Horger. Think German Stanton Warriors.

I kinda miss a lot of the rumours chat over the winter, mostly because I was avoiding it, but is James Blake ruled out? I guess it's unlikely as the possible slots are looking filled and he'd have been on the original poster

Just watched Giant Swan (supporting The Horrors at Royal Albert Hall). Fuck me that's some intense noise. Well worth checking out on the Glade this year. Can't even think where to pigeon-hole them but they went HARD at times. Maybe one for @bennyhana22... 

Was this for Primary Colours in full? Good gig like? Would love to see it.

I'm not only into industrial! (in fact, my 'best' techno would be euphoric and quite chordant/choral!)

But yes, they are great. They play everything live and, if they are to be believed, arrive at a gig without a 'setlist' as such. They just set off and riff off one another and see where the tracks take them. Despite their predilection for 'noise', they do end up with some good structure, and most of the tracks have a banging beat and are very danceable. With the clarity of the system on Glade cleaning up their sound, they should be awesome. I can't wait to see some people's faces as their performances are...erm...robust!

That Jayda G mix is absolutely brilliant, thanks @James_Glasto_LDn , it might even drag me in to Silver Hayes. On a separate note, I just can't handle the crowd behind the DJs on Boiler Room videos. The cringe is too much.

Glad you like her, she was incredible at Phonox last year and i'll certainly be there in Silver Hayes , she has such good energy. Totally agree with your views on the boiler room crowds.. it's a weird concept, never understood the appeal of just hovering behind the DJ and not really being able to let loose and enjoy with friends.

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
