Snap. Seven plus hours on a Megabus and looking at an even longer overnight journey home if you include the two hour stop off in Leeds!

The girl beside me on the train had a seizure and was unconscious for about 15 minutes. We had to stop the train and wait for an ambulance while we looked after her. Then an ambulance car turned up and had no way of moving her so we had to wait for another real ambulance. She seemed okay in the end just quite confused as they took her away to recover. It was quite a stressful morning, not the chilled one I'd planned. Sainsburys looking more tempting now I've recounted that. 

Should have bought Travel Johns.

Good God. Sing that in a slightly high pitch drawn out manner to some skittish WARP era techno (with strings) and I'll queue to watch you play.

I'll even piss meself.

I fucking love the 'shoula brought Travel Johns' refrain!

Yep. I'd definitely be needing a drink or two after that!  Hope the show itself is stress-free for you!

I see you! You could get us BOTH beers from the position! 

Really feeling like i should have headed to the downstairs bar before joining the queue on the stairs. Gonna weigh up my options once the main space doors open - if it doesn't look like I'll lose out on a good vantage point I'll be straight to the bar! This would be much less of an issue if i weren't as bloody short!

I'm three deep back from centre front. If you got us both a drink I could save you a spot :D

It's funny, @bennyhana22, I thought Decks Dark was the most disappointing of the new ones. Maybe it's because I expected it to translate the best, it just seemed to lack something. Also thought Ful Stop was probably the best of the new crop, though Identikit sounded great (from the toilet :(). 

Presented in a Radiothread trademark list, my top 5 of the night were:

1) Idioteque

2) Weird Fishes

3) Myxamatosis

4) Airbag

5) Kid A

Idioteque seems like such a banger from the streams.

It was where the whole thing peaked, in my opinion. It's that second verse. The light show was spectacular and I lost my mind.

Wish I'd checked this earlier. I'm three back in front of the mic on the left. Heard the engagement malarky going on earlier, too!

No way Adele is cancelling. She's signed a contract to perform, she can't just back out if she decides she doesn't fancy it.

I agree. Besides, I have just consulted my source and they are proceeding with arrangements  for Adele as they have been for weeks. Nothing rumoured at their end, at any rate.

    • People who're struggling are already priced out, so I don't think a bump in price will affect who attends. There'll still be a cross section, leaning young. I also think they'll do a soft breaking of the £400 ceiling, keeping the ticket price just below but having postage take it over. Next year the ticket itself will be over that threshold.

    • Not sure if this has been mentioned but new La Roux album out November - was meant to play in 2020 but hasn't found her way back onto a lineup. If any excuse just to hear this absolute banger on the fields next year!
    • Yeh, the quiet camping also seems to be on the same side (broadly) as the bits of the festival that go on the latest (Far Out / Chai Waalahs / RTT until 4am). We're always in Tangerine Fields which is right behind the main stage and as soon as that and Rising Stage are done it's pretty quiet (midnight onwards) which I'd guess is pretty similar if you can hack taking all your gear from the car past the big tree in the middle and into the campsites that side. 
    • Can't see Bimble line up anywhere - am I being dense and missing an obvious release somewhere?
