There will be much Yeeeeeeeeeeoow-ing done in a couple of weeks time! 

Am I right @rubick?

Have been wondering about my Sunday headliner plans, I'll be in jpt for friendly fires so maybe stay on for streets then

 

You have to get the timber of the Yeeeeooooooow just right, preferably with a long intake of breath and a forceful throwing back of the head and hit that drop at the key moment. I worry about oul Rab in case he's out of practice ?

Didn't want to make a new thread for this (with my name on) and thought this might be a good place to ask.... My mate just told me that they were doing "more searches" this year. No idea where he got this from, or what it means. Haven't heard it anywhere though. I remember in 2017 they advertised extra searches due to the Manchester bombing, but don't remember seeing a similar announcement this year. Anyone heard anything?

Asking for a friend ?

Hmmmm that would be a shame. Can you not ask your friend where he got this info from....?!

sounds like a cop out to me.

 

 

they say they have to get more female DJ's and I get that, but if it is Annie Mac shows they have not put much thought in to it. There are better woman out there

Exactly what I was thinking. She said she’ll reveal the slot this week, although I’m hoping it’s not the crane!

I haven’t seen anyone mention Eclair Fifi yet. Her sets are so much fun, seen her twice and she smashed it out the park! Bit gutted she’s doing b2b with ermmmm someone I can’t remember now, so I don’t expect it to be her disco heavy self. Kind of hope she’ll jump on with Haai somewhere, but I’ll most likely miss it.

2 of our group didn't get tickets and has a job working gates this year. I am getting a heads up on Tuesday. I will see what I can find out.

I went Parklife this weekend (I got a free ticket) weather was horrendous, I’ve never felt so old but I had a great time.

Paul Woolford was very good, shame he had a pop at Glastonbury on Twitter and he’ll probably never play now.

Moodmann is a true one off. He started off by giving it up for Crazy P y’all then proceeded to point at Midland (poor Midland!) then to add insult to injury he played a loop of Pick Up by Koze for literally 20-25 mins as he poured everyone on the front row a drink and then another drink. Dunno if Midland got a drink too but if I was him I’d wonder what I ever did to Kenny Dixon Jr. 

At some point a chant of “wooop there it is” broke out amongst the crowd (this was a theme of the weekend, madness) and he jumps on the mic “yeahhhh wooop Derrr is y’all”. What a man.

Ben UFO b2b Call Super was seriously good, they ended on that Vortex by Special Request who was watching the set behind them. Was a nice moment and an absolute tune. More chants of wooop there it is.

Nas was sick greatest hits set I’d never seen him before either so was a real moment for me. If I Ruled the World got me very excited for Ms Hill.

Went to Soup Kitchen for after party Willow was on she was good would love to see her at Glastonbury one day. 

Sunday was a total washout so was unbearably full in the tent for Daniel Avery and sound was shite how far away we were so we sacked it off.

Managed to get back in for half an hour of Helena Hauff who was banging and it took the absolute man of me to leave.

 The Streets were absolutely brilliant, the last time I saw them was at Leeds Festival years ago and in truth they were shite that day. The break has obviously done him some good because he put in the best performance I saw all weekend. Must see at Glastonbury after that. Set list was bang on and he even managed to get the sun out. If you were on the fence about what to do Sunday night I’d recommend them.

What did Paul Woodford say about Glasto?

You can put drugs up your arsehole, behind you ball sack, up your vagina or maybe in between your toes. Apart from that they might stumble upon them. It’s not hard.

Have her set down for the Friday, she's on with fort romeau just before palms trax in the beat Hotel, looking forward to that! Love her nts show, never heard her live. Hoping to get to the beat Hotel after Jon Hopkins OK to get in for it

That’s my plan too! I don’t really know the distances, as it’s my first, so I kind of expect missing half my itinerary, but here’s hoping!

2017 was the fastest I’ve ever gotten in. 

There will always be claims of increased security but at the end of the day, with that many people pouring through the gates there’s only so much they can really do without slowing things down significantly. If there is an increase, im sure it’ll hardly be noticed, and as always you’d just be unfortunate to get properly searched - brief body and bag pat downs as per for most I’d assume.

Fort Romeau? He's good!

 

I’ve seen him on lineups this year quite a lot, but never had the chance to catch him anywhere. Only got to scroll throught this set as I’m On my break, but from what I can hear it might work well with Eclair Fifi! Cheers buddy!

Been wanting to catch them both for quite a while so to have that plus added palms trax after I was well pleased! Just hoping the beat hotel isn't too much of a melt at that time.

^ and speak of which, does anyone know of anyone that went to their thing in Morocco? 

I do, a guy I work with who’s friends with them. Next time I get a chance I’ll ask if he knows anything.

About 6 of my mates went, although they arnt really massive dance music heads.

They said it was good although I think they had a better time in and Marrakesh.

Dont know if they’d be rushing back.

Not sure if this warrants a thread of it’s own, but I’d be interested to know what people’s must see set for the weekend is.

I’ll start off. Mines on Thursday, George FitzGerald at The Glade, which I assume is more of a live’ thing. Closely followed by Avalon Emerson at The Beat, whom I must confess, I’d never heard of before checking out this thread so thanks a lot 

Over to you guys

I'm going to say Monika Kruse.

It's my only set in The Temple.

I've never seen her before.

It's perfectly placed in the festival - closing out Saturday night, with an amazing couple of nights behind me, but still another full one ahead.

It's a set that will start just before dawn, so should be magical.

As it's so late/early, those there should really want to be there.

 

Honourable mentions to Karenn and Josh Wink. Oh, and Randomer. Oh, and CdW on Pangea - that could be very special...

Suffice to say, I'm quite excited.

Ben

    • 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
