The fence is making cracking progress too!

It never fails to utterly gobsmack me the huge amount of infrastructure, building, machinery etc etc just for a 5 day party.  It bends my mind every single year!

Camera seems to have produced much clearer images back in 2019. To be fair, it was a while ago now.

The 2019 photo is a lot brighter - which means the sensor isn't working so hard = less noise in the image. it'll be better to compare photos with similar brightness

Makes you wonder what measures are in place to offset the environmental impact of the festival, even before the impact on the local land fill, nearly everything will have arrived by truck, sometimes from a fair distance away, a few thousand arriving by coach won’t be sufficient, nor is giving money to Greenpeace. 
 

edit. It seems The festival has a CO2 positive effect on the planet, mostly by planting trees, assuming all the figures are correct and the trees actually get planted that’s fantastic. Now if everyone could take their crap home with them afterwards things would be even better.

Loads of equipment piled up in front of the Pyramid too.

Digger around the Beat Hotel location and action in William's Green field as well. 

I think the second photo is stuff that’s been used awaiting collection. … ?

Interesting. I don't recall a crane being used to put up the ribbon tower in previous years. Possibly because it would go up so early it was before they were being hired. Why make life harder if there's one around that's available I guess.

Must have needed one to put up the onion though. The rest of the structure is ikea self-assembly-like 🙂

It was used for most of the day, plus putting the Hat on in 2019.

    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
    • Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
