What on earth is this? Someone levitating, or...

Assuming you mean the odd dark green shaped thing in the middle, it'll be a temporary mobile phone transmitter, covered it netting to make it blend in with its surroundings.

Yeah, after looking at an old webcam shot, I think it can't be the steward bit - the hedge is the border of the Silver Hayes field, so it's definitely in SH:

There are changes around that area in silver hayes, we stay in the bell tents behind it and were told this year we could only get 2 and not 3 due to a reduction of space. Pretty much where you have circled was previously artist / staff camping for silver hayes.

This makes sense, but there is an uncovered monstrosity 10 feet behind it, which makes no sense.

Yeah - my guess is its either a)different operators with different in house rules, or b)one is a mobile mast (the covered one) and the other is a Glasto internal comms tower

They've still got to put the netting on the one behind it.

And then they'll do Pangea too.

Yes. 

Its like looking at a stage frame like Park or Other and seeing just the stage frame. Add lights, projectors, lasers, fire, boomy stuff, lightning, dancers, acrobats and some fucking loud music and you won’t see the crane as a frame i’m sure. 

Did they not mention they have a Cold War era radome? Can imagine that on top of the crane looking like some kind of art deco lamp with stuff being projected onto it...

It's looking real dusty on site at the moment... (still can't believe not going :( )

Yep although bbc forecast showers today, in reality we got a sprinkle which was not worth putting a coat on for. Warm until about 7pm when the temperature suddenly dropped. Feckin cold in the pub, enough for the lovely landlady Bexs to put the fire on for us.

We might as well have the coldest Glastonbury Festival on record. Then we’d have the set, right?

What is the coldest on record so far?

Oh god. I don’t have to into the weather thread do I? I lose interest after Big Dog’s shift is over post-fence completion.

If you're THAT interested, this bloke has an hour plus video of him making a delivery to Worthy Farm.

Obviously I'm not that interested but he doesn't get there until 20 minutes in.

 

Ok I am not going to lie I am LOVING this...

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
