Hehe! Brilliant!

All which begs the question:

Do you actively manage your pissedness at Glastonbury then?

I've learned to. My avatar / profile pic being my nadir. But that was Stag Do Glastonbury. 

I seem to have crazy levels of centurion endurance at Glastonbury, so I never get drunk. I think it's because I drink a lot, but it's spaced over a day, I maintain at the magic spot from about 6pm to when it's time to sleep (Scruff's going to be along in a minute to turn that into something sordid), which is something akin to the level around 3/4 drinks in the real world. That footage was actually from a night when I bragged I'd be the most sober one because of all my festival tolerance I'd built up, then necked about a whole Glastonbury day's worth of rum in the space of 3 hours. Festivals are magic though, don't feel anything even resembling a hangover up until I get home, always wake up more chipper than any other time on a Glastonbury morning.

Someone give me an album to listen to please. Just finished listening to all of Maccabees back catalogue after yesterdays announcement and am a bit stuck now.

Something like Car Seat Headrest would be fantastic - That was a great find last week.

Not too familiar w Car Seat Headrest, but I get the impression from people that know him he's a bit like Alex G (DSU is my favourite of his, think a lot of stuff is on bandcamp if not Spotify)

    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
    • Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
