Experience deems wellies necessary. I mind turning up at Connect with pointed base loafers on. By the Saturday, a pair of green dunlops had been purchased.

 

Two pairs of trainers for the weekend does me. Wear a pair Friday and then let them 'harden and bash off the mud for the sunday and then other pair for Saturday and for the bus home.

At present it's looking like Thursday / Sunday without much, if any, rain and Friday / Saturday with some fairly heavy showers and consistent rainfall, so pretty much a mixed bag like you'd expect. Could do with the ground being at least mostly dry before the heavy rain hits on Friday morning.

It's really hit and miss right now but mostly every forecast has friday as a bit wet. I think we can wave bye bye to any potential scorcher like 2013. I still say we wont know for sure until Wednesday at least. I'd take last year's weather in a heartbeat right now.

Think I would prefer the current forecast to 2013. That year it was too hot! I was struggling to cope in that

Yeah waking up in the tent was disgusting in that heat I mind.

I think I'd cry if a repeat of 2012 happened. Surely itl be nowhere near that bad as we even rarely get that kind of rain in winter months!

I think on Friday it's going to rain, all websites now say that, and it's going to rain all day. The other days are are different on websites so, really, no confirmation. I'm one of the few who prefers 20 degrees plus rather than rain, I absolutely despise standing still watching an act in the rain knowing it'll be at least 20 minutes until you're under cover. If the ground conditions are largely affected on Friday I'll consider leaving early I despised 2012 and couldn't do that again

The best week of summer in Scotland is usually in May. At a festival I was at this May it was -1 at 10am! This year the weather will be fine, no heavy downpours and no heatwaves. Pretty much perfect I'd say.

Is it to rain all day and night mate?

2012 was ridiculous. I don't think I was never not standing in at least a foot of of mud at any one time. I just like dry overcast weather. A bit of rain is harmless too so i will take that but not too much. I'm not asking for much here, somebody make me happy please

    • Never too early to start discussing next year’s headliners right?   I’m not attending this year so thought I’d get the ball rolling as I saw Weezer have a new album out in August I’d expect them to do this or Slam Dunk next year. I mean they’re probably too big for this however I think they’re niche enough that they would maybe do it, it just depends on if the fee is a bit out of range for trees.    It’ll be the 20th anniversary next year so I’d expect some throwbacks and hopefully some big headliners/acts. James has already said he’s made a mad booking that you wouldn’t guess & I think he mentioned that he’s spent something like 80% of this years budget of next years top line already on last weeks 2 promoters 1 pod (Don’t quote me on that).    I reckon they’ll try for and get at least two (not all) of the following - Enter Shikari, AFI, Weezer, Sex Pistols Feat Frank Carter, Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls
    • for some reason last night watched series one of Prey on Netflix.   if Legends was written by Timmy Mallet (see above) then Prey seems to have been made by Mr Blobby.   why are all these British crime dramas so sh*t?
    • It'll be all over various Seatfillers based upon previous years at Sandringham
    • The Jayhawks 2026 UK Tour    Sept 15 – Brighton – Corn Exchange  Sept 16 – London – Electric Ballroom Sept 17 – Manchester – Academy 2 Sept 18 – Glasgow – The Garage    For you ‘americana’ lovers. They have a great song book.
    • Weezer just announced a new album & US tour so could add them to the headliner pool. Imagine they’ll do this or trees
