Carl Cox b2b Jamie Jones. I wonder if the latter will bring out the softer side of Coxy. That would be slightly less than great for me, but I could see them doing that on Pangea. I’m predicting: Glade - house, funk etc as billed; Pangea - tech housey with JJ; IIICON - straight up techno.

 

I think that's spot on actually.  I'll be at IIIIIIIIICON for sure if that the case.

It's been too long since I've seen a proper CC techno set.  Should have happened at Junction 2 last year but some medication decided to kick in hard at the wrong time and I had to escape the crowd.

Also, I think we’re sure that Monika Kruse is Friday too, aren’t we? If she was in The Temple at 0400h (so enough time actually to get in given first night proper packed-ness), that could be unreal!!!

Literally so buzzing to get there now.  I don't remember the last time I was this excited for Glasto.

Work productivity has been poor today.

I'd be surprised (disappointed) if they did that.

Loving the more women on the line-up, particularly Techno.

Considering Awakenings usually steals it all from Glasto it's not going too bad so far.

It's friday, Im staying in tonight. A few techno bits to get people moving -  all a bit quicker than @bennyhana22's 128bpm optimum, but I like them!

 

 

I don't want to be that guy, Fuzz, but that Reinier Zonneveld track is excellent ( i love a bit fo acid...) and Beatport lists it as 128bpm!

:)

Last time Craig Charles played Arcadia he played late afternoon, and I could see him doing the same again. In fact I don't think I've ever heard of him doing a late night set a festival before, he's retreated deep back into the funky bunker by that time.

Saw him do the last set of the last night on one of the small stages at bestival one year. Was clearly off his nut, having the best time, but the mix didnt suffer. Security shut it down for a bit because the bar was too rammed (think it was one of those weird jagermeister sponsored bar type things) but he was straight in the crowd to continue the party. Top Fella!

Charlotte defo, Daniel Avery - I so want to see him, Carl Cox IIICON - straight up techno. 

But, a Friday techno night at the new fire-spitter sounds excellent, bombing off to the SEC at 3am for the second half of the night.

If Paula Temple now gets announced for Block9 we’re flying...

"Benjamin, Benjamin, get out of that room now and stop squeezing all the presents. You can only open them on Christmas Day and no earlier". ?

Hope Block 9 comes out early in the day (don't expect it to), as I'm off to Wembley and will get caught up in that

Who do you support mate? I fancy Villa to go up myself as a Rovers fan not overly impressed with Derby they were shite at Ewood this year. That said they’re in the final so what do I know.

Villa tomorrow. I'm a Celtic fan, but a mate has a family connection who plays for Villa so we're off down to cheer them on. I fancy them also, but these games always likely to be scrappy 

I'm just hoping to see a good game personally, I've never been to Wembley either so looking forward to it.

Block 9 tomorrow surely? Full lineup will probably be next week!

I think we’ll all go mental if Block9 doesn’t drop tomorrow!

I reckon it’ll earlyish, given the Bank Holiday. Gives people a whole day to digest the massive line-up and chat about it. 

Fingers crossed ??, team.

That’s the Coxy I’m looking for, Fuzz ??

Ben

Exactly the same for me Ben! Im hoping he is like that at Arcadia.

He did say he id playing 2 Techno sets, surely 1 is Block 9. If not, is it a secret set somewhere?

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
