The Other roof is up as well.

EDIT: We already knew this, I'm an idiot.

Seeing the 'Toilets' sign by the Pyramid urinals send a shudder of excitement through me. 

I think I need help.

[Laurawfc]

We're back!

Speaker towers on the pyramid field going up

Hopefully the new other stage will have better sound quality, didn't think it was that good last year

Are there tiny people on the roof of the other stage?

I think you're mad.  Sounded brilliant to me - what did you think was wrong with it?

[Laurawfc]

Maybe I was standing too far away from it, may have been because of wind. It sounded awful during the 1975...or was that 2015?

[Joshuwarr]

Could some do a side by side photo of the other stage last year (at a similar stage) vs now? I just can't see much of a huge difference that everyone else is seeing??? 

[Padgey]

Wow that fence has flown up, the fence the fence the fence is on fire! 

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

New new other stage there for all to see now

Well that's because the 1975 were playing, duh.

In all fairness I quite like Chocolate, and The Sound.. and maybe Girls. Well apparently I'm a closet 1975 fan.

I have to admit, I only saw a few bands there and I was always near the towers, so I didn't get any wind distortion.  It seems to have been a problem with that field for years, no matter what PA they use. I found it really well balanced for LCD, everything sounded really spot on.

I'm actually not sure what PA they use there, I thought it was a Martin Audio MLA like the Pyramid, but seems not to be:

The award-winning MLA technology could not only be found at Pyramid but also John Peel Stage, West Holts and Block9 complex, while conventional Martin Audio line arrays featured at The Park and Billy Bragg’s Left Field stages.

I like all those too, but can't stand anything by the 1975

Loads been done, I CAN SEE A TOILET SIGN! 

[bexj]

I can't believe how much the little trees have grown up in the last few years up behind the stone circle! 

Love to see the Glastonbury font loud and clear on the Toilet sign..... so exciting!!!!

[kalifire]

Yesterday I watched somebody's Glastonbury home video from a few years ago in which they spread the ashes of one of their friends on a sapling up there, it choked me up quite a bit.

Imagine the feeling of seeing that grow into a mighty tree at Glastonbury, going back to it every year, wow.

You think you're bad, but reading about you shudder with excitement made me shudder with excitement.  And to my knowledge, we've never even met. 

Cannot

Come

Quickly

Enough

What are all those things down by the Pyramid, then? Generators?

[fatyeti24]

 Get back to work!

[Fork_UK]

Looks like there's a fence up in front of where the Mandela Bar usually is.  Change of layout or just a temporary fence to keep people off the grass?
