Taylor is in London. 

 

(I need to stop getting stupidly excited but it is nice to have that buzz I'd usually have the Tuesday before.)

Is she? She was isolating in Nashville last I saw. Has she now come over here?

Well this is exciting! Certainly hope it's not Taylor instead of playing next year 😂

Does make me think the secret sets are going to be live...has to be Coldplay surely?

Oh yeah gotta be nailed on for at least one of them! :lol:

I just cant see them having a big live act there, it will be a security/policing nightmare, there must be expecting loads to turn up over the weekend already without a rumour of a big act performing live, they simply wont be able to stop people getting to the site without a fence and as soon as people see punters there it will be a free for all for hundreds more to head to the farm. Too much of a health and safety risk, people will camp there all weekend if they could and the police wouldn't allow it, and it might create licencing issues for future years? They might have a One show broadcast there, and have prerecorded sets from the site over recent weeks, but I cant see big  live acts there this weekend

 

 

 

... now packing my tent and heading down tomorrow....

The cynic in me tends to agree although if it's true they have security at the gates and it's a big act doing a low-key, surprise acoustic performance I could see that happening. They'd have to be incredibly careful though.

I bet they turn the camera off soon ;)

True though - they've got to be careful how they play it else there's a danger it'll be like the pre-fence days all over again - probably without the crusties and 'New Age' travellers mind.

But if theres no fence where would the security go, its s huge open area, anyone could get in without too much effort I would have thought, it's just a load of big fields with not a lot of stopping anyone from moving from field to field if they wanted to. I cant see how they can stop people getting in if they were determined enough

I agree with you but I'm not sure how many would really try? So far it's just us nerds that have noticed the webcam. If it's kept under wraps until it happens I think they could be okay, but only like I said if it's a small scale acoustic thing. Who knows, could be everything or nothing!

Security at main gate access points....then a fenced enclave that we can see with additional security....and a patrol to pick up anyone who gets in.  Reasonable with low number expectations....

    • Well when you chuck 150 predictions put somethings gotta stick 😜   When you have GC or Avril as options to sub Blink, Turnstile wouldn't be a good option at all. Put them under a heavier headliner.   The thought that three days grace will headline avalanche is pretty laughable with the slots they are getting this year at fests. They were class at RIP     On am overall side note, Bruce slipped on last night see you next year before the encore!   Also Maiden smashed it!
    • Assuming nobody knows she’s playing before the main sale, it wouldn’t be that bad. There’d still be plenty of Swifties for you to sneer at but it wouldn’t be because they’ve infiltrated the sale, it would be because she’s just that popular.
    • I just saw Rock am Ring in Germany did a video announcing blink-182 will be playing it next year during this year's festival there.   We talked about when Glastonbury announces it's first headline act but that would be different if they announced a 2028 headliner during next year's event.
