2015 was my first. If it's first ever music then its a great band called my baby, followed by the awesome chainska brasskia both on the bandstand in Williams green. 

First big stage was was james bay, ruined by the hangover/sunstroke cominbination. 

Wednesday and Thursday were a very happy surprise. Next year I'll make more of them, with a chair to save the feet for the main days

Unfortunately I caught a bit of The 1975 whilst waiting for Metronomy at William's Green (Thursday, 2014). 

Oh god, I just got told Metronomy at the meet, so we were right down the front all excited for Metronomy when The 1975 popped out. We couldn't escape! I've told this story a million times on the boards I think , but I'm still scarred!

The Darkness opening the Pyramid in 2003.  I was young and naive... OK, I wasn't young, but it was my first ever festival, whilst going through a messy break up with the mother of my children, so I'll claim that I was easily lead due to emotional stress.

These days, I go with said mother of my children, and occasionally the kids come as well, and it's safe to say, you wouldn't catch us anywhere near the Darkness

    • Has Grace Jones been discussed for this slot and if not, why not?
    • I suppose but when you look at the upcoming timeline: 13 dates in 2026 - I'm working on the assumption most of that will be a slightly revised setlist to get back into the groove, with maybe a new single thrown in; at least for some of them. Album five drops, tbc when exactly. UK/EU tour - Spring 2027 Biggest ever dates, UK stadium/s - Summer 2027   That doesn't say 2028 to me, it says 2027.   Then I guess to pay devils advocate - you'd imagine they'll continue for the rest of 2027 - probably U.S circa September/October (I say that part with hope, cause I'll go to a few).   At that point - they could even continue it, if the had eyes on anything like Asia/Australia, and all of a sudden Glastonbury 2028 isn't that far away, in the grand scheme of things.   All that to say - I don't know, tbh. 
    • I think it'll tip over for sure, £410. Still incredible value for money, I paid 300 odd quid per ticket for Latitude this year (we go there with the little ones) which makes glasto the bargain of the century.
    • I think I caught some of PISS and SLAG at the Ritual Union festival earlier this year. Won't bother seeking them out again, there will be far better bands to discover.
    • @mufcok any chance the Fontaines ask could be for 2028?
