I'm really up for DJ Hype. The fact that he is on in The Blues (that shanty town thing) and finishes 30 mins before Leftfield is nigh on perfect. Way Out West before that in The Glade. If my ageing legs hold up that is a pretty decent Saturday night!

That plan sounds very good indeed.

Unfortunately for me, such plans like that rarely work out

Ha - weirdly I manage to combine an impressive attention to detail with a near suicidal drinking schedule at festivals!

High contrast is on after london electricity on the spaceport stage wherever the hell that is

It's to the east of the Glade. London Elektricity played there last year at about 4pm, to a crowd of 25? Loads of space to dance!

His two sons were on MCing duties for him.

Edit: Terrible spelling.

Really looking forward to the Essential Mix. Andy C always delivers, and the Spor record is stunning.

I just wish they had a bit longer! 2 hours between Andy C, Spor and Friction doesn't give them much time each.

40 minutes (I've got a C at GSCE maths - don't mention it).

Ha. Thanks for that. It just seems like a big effort for Andy C to make to play for less than an hour, with no other sets during the weekend. I know he'll get loads of R1 exposure, but hardly seems worth it for someone his size.

I didn't use a calculator or anything (despite my C my mental arithmetic is very strong... not that I'm boasting).

In fairness it is Radio 1 (and also, who says he isn't playing again?!).

Very true, and time will tell I guess. I've just tweeted the lot of them to ask for the time splits anyway, so fingers crossed I get some sort of answer.

I'm gonna have to look for gaps that Andy C might be playing that night now! As I say, I can't imagine he'd go all that way for one set under an hour...

There's a free slot on Arcadia at about midnight on Sunday and I've def seen him on Arcadia before (at both Glasto and Bestival I think).

Ha! I think I've seen him at both as well! Although my memory of Bestival is pretty hazy...

Although the Essential Mix slot finishes at 3, the next act aren't on until 4. Perhaps they might just give them an hour each. I'd have thought that if he did another set it would be that Friday night.

EDIT: Just saw post above. Great news!

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
