I'm definitely going to be at Fish56octagon, seems a fair few on her might be at Joy Orbison Thursday, as a Thursday option? I'm there anyway 😄 

If by 'a fair few' you mean efsts folks and circa 30,000 people, yes.

Wishing Well Friday lineup update 🐴

I know i’m at risk of jinxing it… But my best mate is playing Arcadia (not saying who) and he reckons i’ll be able to rave one out INSIDE the dragonfly during his set.

 

Absolute dream come true 🥳

Define “cheesy”…

[Twiggy553]

Cheesy is a broad church lol

 

if you mean clichéd then arguably NYC Downlow (albeit in a very self-aware way)

[Twiggy553]

On that note, Is anyone here going to NYC Downlow on thursday night?

 

come say hi if you do (i’m hard to miss 😂)

Would love to see some pics of this after we are all back if you are able to! Either way have a great time!!!

RAVE HARD, RAVE SAFELY, TEAM

 

So, here we go. Thought I'd send my customary post wishing the best Glastonbury to all patrons of the Thread of Threads™️.

 

I truly hope you have a fantastic time. Remember, as @Fishman says, it's a marathon, not a sprint. I know there's a tendency to go too hard but, truly, pacing yourself (in all ways...) is the route to Farm Rave Joy.

 

I would love to meet as many of you as possible, so please, please come and say hi if you see me. I'm not hard to spot. Position A, dark trucker cap, shorts, t-shirt and hooped socks up to the knees 😆.

 

For me, raving is all about the shared experience, so let's see if we can get a record number of occasions when we meet folks from here that, up to now, we've only known by usernames.

 

Cannot wait. It's been a long time coming.

 

Have the best time, and rave safely, kids.

Mate a massive THANK YOU - to you and all the other regular contributors to the thread for creating a "safe space" for us part time ravers to ask our stupid questions. Cannot wait to bin off work at 11am tomorrow and make my way down to the farm and will hopefully try and find you at Fish56 Trance set. 

 

PEACE OUT!!

[Fishman]

Love to all and take it steady and look out for each other. It's a long old stretch and aim for the finish line of The Temple on the Sunday night (yes, you will get in).

 

Thanks for all the recommendations helping keep an old man a little more up-to-date.

 

Do keep an eye out for Ben and go and say hello. He is pretty easy to find (really!) and, if you find him, you'll find others.

 

See you in the fields and do post a review or the odd blurry photo here after.

Oh yeah, remember, it's a marathon not a sprint.

To the members of the best thread on the internet…

 

Have the best time shimmying the night away 

 

Looking forward to the debriefs in week or so!

I specifically remember not long after I first joined, some keyboard hero was getting agro with someone in here.

 

They were politely but firmly told by the E&D community that “we don’t do that in here, go somewhere else if you want an argument”. It was beautiful.

[beesboy]

Echo what others have said, you guys that share on here are legends. I’m currently all set up in East Quiet and very much looking forward to the week ahead. The party has kind of already started here but I will take the Captains advice and try and stay semi sensible today at least.

Floating Points was on 6music with Nick Grimshaw this morning, apparently part of the (licensing?) agreement was they can't announce who is playing. He confirmed he was first up and the weekend was full of his mates playing there.

[brizgigs]

New Shangri-La stage is seriously impressive. AV show now amazing - like a big Boomtown stage. Fair play to them, they've really mixed it up. Sound bleed terrible at smaller stages though
