Certainly don't blame the festival for trying things, it's certainly a live and learn process.

Another "won't do that again" is the Lovebullets tent in 2017.

Caused an horrific soundclash in the area being so close to LeftField and Glade and made the path way to narrow around there.

Should’ve been in Silver Hayes or nowhere.

As long as it doesn’t go by the other stage. That was awful.   Mind you access to the field Pangea is in isn’t great 

This must have been before my time. Am I understanding right.. they are the spider in the Other Stage field? Where?!

2013 for one year, to the right of the other stage. The glade wasn't in the woods that year (I think..)

Oh wow. I'm surprised they even tried that. Especially when they didn't replace it with anything and just made Park Home Ground bigger camping.

That's how Park Home used to be, it was relocated from SE corner. Used to camp in Park Home so wasn't best pleased when they moved it there, but it's probably the best place for it on reflection.

It was the first year it was moved out of the SE corner.   It was always just camping around Park Home before that.

In some ways I can see why they tried it - it basically fired up when the last act finished on the OS. So the crowd moved across taking a bit of load off the usual rush to the SE corner.  However unless you were under the spider the sound was awful.. as has always been the issue and that corner just got way too busy and caused a massive bottleneck

Yeah, the sound was abysmal

In the area between the other stage and the Glade in the corner....was truly awful.

Sound was all over the place, went to Andy C (i think) on the Friday night and were stood under the spider having a conversation with my mate with no problem at all hearing him.

Anyone else getting consumed with jealousy with all the lucky folk getting Near the site and taking these lovely photos of the build? The lure is getting too strong for me so I’m opening delicate negotiations with Mrs c for a few days camping down near Glastonbury next month.

I'm already dreading how I'm going to feel on the Sunday before the festival when I'll be at the Wife's granddad's birthday meal at the Crossways in North Wootton which is a mere 2 miles away from Worthy Farm.

Every year we go there and being so close to the festival then driving away from it stings big time even though I know i'll be heading back in less than 48 hours time 😂

Bet you saw them once or twice? Supporting Gillan for me; different times

Yeah, couple of times including a headline show at a very sparsely populated Royal Court. Still, they threw sweets out to the crowd so it was all good. Bring back the scouse Quo.

Stayed many times at the crossways, ideal location. The campsite I’m looking at staying is just nearby to the hotel. Great country walks around the area.

      If the rumours coming out of the U2 camp are correct (big stadium world tour) then think they're more likely to do Wembley, Twickenham, etc as they'll be able to bring their own production and typically like to go big.

      I don't think they are too big for Castlefield these days. They've not had a new album for almost a decade and they like playing smaller venues. Maybe multiple nights is another option as they do like residencies

      made a last minute decision to go to Belladrum festival.   it was absolutely wonderful.   never been before, to be honest I think I was expecting a stage in a field and a burger van, but its nothing at all like that.   the site is beautiful, its small enough to get around, but big enough that there are things to discover round each corner, there are a good number of small stages tucked away.   you could quite easily convince yourself you were in Glastonbury in places.   I may have only been one time, but already learned a valuable lesson - the site itself may be Glastonbury like, but the "general camping" campsite is very much Reading like! as the morning mist rises... its a view like the Do Lung Bridge scene in Apocalypse Now...   so if you are not 15 years old, go to family or quiet camping which is fantastic.   its a real family friendly festival to - loads of families and kids of all ages running round and stuff for them to do.   I would 100% recommend it, and I really can't see any reason why I wont be going back next year!   🙂
