It does, just after midnight.

Considering Radiohead seem to be going to great lengths to play in the dark at that Solstice festival I can't imagine they'll be subbing.

I really don't think that would be an issue. Keep in mind if they subbed it probably wouldn't be a typical headline show with lighting effects and the like. They are hardly going to turn down Glastonbury because of daylight are they?

I'm in Iceland right now and it's getting dark already.

Not sure if that's a sign or not.

As long as it gets light again in the morning I'd say we're safe for another 24 hours.

At this stage I'm more likely to just buy a NOS ticket and just miss Radiohead if they do a secret set. It's important that the first time I see them, I see them properly.

This is exactly what I've done. The line up is fantastic and by all accounts the festival is excellent, including the camping. Costing me £350 for the ticket and travel - bargain

McCartney has announced two dates in Germany the week before Glastonbury. Too late to ask him to nip over for Saturday night?

"Asked if Adele would fit as a headliner at Glastonbury, Eavis replied: "She would wouldn't she? It would be great to get her."

 

What do we make of this interview then? Is EE just being deliberately coy, or has Adele still not fully committed?

Yes, I think they would

[shuttlep]

Iggy Pop is there any news or rumors about him? he would be great 2nd from end on other stage.

 

 

last time I saw him at Glastonbury everyone charged the stage, I was at the back so did't get the chance. but from what I remember he told people to get on the stage. so they did.

To be honest I'd be over the moon if that happened. I mentioned that a few weeks back and that RH could have been subbed with a view to headlining if Adele decided not to play.

 

Even though It would be a disgrace for her to be above Radiohead I would actually be happy with that as I am taking a kid this year so Radiohead could be my headliner and I could get get to my van before she starts droning on about her ex leaving her.

Presuming Adele is our final headliner it's going get awfully quiet in here soon. Who's going to be the first to reignite the weather thread?

Jackones weekly update

Colourful graphs which have lines on which I'll study intently but have no meaning to the majority of us

Live ground reports from big dog

 

Exiting times are just around the corner

You can always tell when the previous festival had decent weather, because the weather thread starts later.

I believe in 2008, it started in January.

He certainly did that in '07 but I think that's normal for an iggy pop gig.

I never heard of this so I googled it, the action starts at about 0:40
