I've somehow never been to the Glade in four festivals, I'm not actually sure where it even is ya know!? Must remedy that.

Oh, you must! It's at the bottom of Pennards, just off the railway line, tucked amongst the trees (hence the name) with the tremendous sound system. I'm sure you've been there more than you think! 😀👽

I'm driving about over the next few days - so if you've any good mixes to recommend. Any style but I prefer melodic stuff. 

You've probably already seen this but Bicep at the Printworks is probably my favourite driving around set.

If you're a Jon Hopkins fan, I threw up his set from his Glasto 2019 on soundcloud. Also a banger.

Jamie XX at the Park Stage in 2015 is also excellent... I'll throw that up later if anyone wants it.

Wait, is Love Bullets in the Glade area? I've been there! For Elrow in 2017 I think. 

My first three festivals (09, 10, 11) I wasn't properly into electronic music so didn't see too many DJs. Weird to think I've only really experienced one Glasto as an electronic music fan (2017). Makes this year even more exciting.

Still feel so lucky that we went to this day, and we had no idea it was being recorded! Feels like one of those classic sets that will be watched for years to come.

It was, for 2017 only. 

It's only connection was it's nearby location!  The vibe couldn't have been more different.

Lovebullets is in the glade. I've never been though, didn't like the vibe around it at all. Really don't think it fits in the rest of the area.

Haha yeah, that Elrow tent was a bit weird. Had a great time, but I'm not sure it really fit there. Seemed way more of a fit for Silver Hayes.

Man I just can’t wait to be there again. Thumping baseline, cider in hand, sun gently piercing its way through the trees. 

We’re almost there lads and lasses!!!!!!

Lovebullets in the mud and rain of Shangri-La 2016 - fantastic. Seth T and Martinez Brothers for 3 hours of pretty techy stuff. Had a blast.

Lovebullets in the Glade 2017 - went in once for a bit; felt really cokey-aggy in the sunshine in the middle of the afternoon (not Elrow). Left pronto.

Edit: also saw a massive fight, the only one I saw all weekend, effectively spilling out of there in 2017. Security were bloody loving getting stuck into that!

I'll always remember being at Genosys at about 5am one morning in, I think, muddy 2016 and I feel this hand on my shoulder. I turn around to see Child 1 grinning, naked to the waist, looking somewhat worse for wear with his arm around a delightful young lady who was in no way his girlfriend.

Happy Days.

My son is currently 2 and I’d love this to be our future.

Thanks for the tip. I might give YT premium a shot, although I haven't really seen any ads on YouTube for many years now thanks to the uBlock Origin browser extension.

My main concern with Tidal was whether it would have the same content, then I realised it has a bigger catalogue than Spotify's and that changed my mind. Was there anything in particular you didn't like about it?

Probably the problem you navigated with the playlists & maybe being too lazy to learn a new interface. Both of those left it serving music that wasn't for me and I didn't want to spend the time teaching it tbh. On Spotify I have a family plan and also use release radar and suggested playlists a lot so I suppose it would have taken a fair bit to win me over!

Hi guys,

New poster but have been following the forums since my first Glastonbury in ‘19. Finally had it confirmed of work so feel like the excitement can finally begin.

Any idea on the likelihood of Andy C showing up? His residency on Radio 1 the past month has been nothing short of exceptional in my opinion.

Cheers

Cameron

Seen some love for Ben Sims in this thread. Caught him at fabric tonight - incredible 

Nice to get a little just-out-of-the-club review. Ben Sims is still on my to-see list, you bugger. Sleep well, pal!

What’s the deal with Resident Advisor listing Two Shell for Glastonbury? They aren’t on the Silver Hayes lineup and haven’t been announced elsewhere unless I’m being dense.

As @bennyhana22will confirm, RA listings have not always been entirely accurate. 

So it may be that they've got some other info, but more likely someone was seeing things by the time they got that far down the list when transcribing.

    • 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
