Mr Splodge Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Tried popping down to the farm earlier to take pictures of the new art installation, sadly couldn't get near due to it being fenced off, there is also a lot of work going on in the woods and backstage guessing the backstage work is drainage by the looks of it. Will go down again tomorrow or Saturday and hopefully have more luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curlygirl Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Evening all. Thanx for the responses on Mrs Browns Boys. The tickets are not for me. Well... technically one of them is as i will be going with her, but i've bought them for a friend who loves them for her birthday. No one else will take her so we,ll be going on a jolly to that Manchestery place for the night. She will be overjoyed. I didnt manage to book them through efests though as they were sold out so i had to pay some fricking tout squad. Not to much more than the original price thankfully.

noplacelikehome Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Well, what a day, radiohead - Mr Dotty very happy - no stone roses - Mrs Dotty VERY unhappy. Resurrection closing pyramid on Sunday would have been amazing... clearly never going to happen now and what are we left with as realistic prospects Sheeran?? Still all to play for on the other stages but - no roses - may have to console myself with wine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still all to play for on the other stages but - no roses - may have to console myself with wine Yeah, I hear you, dotty. Of the rumours going around, Stone Roses was the one I was hoping for, too. I've got a few Radiohead albums, but none of them have had very many plays. I suspect if I were to see them, I'm unlikely to know more than a few tracks. Still, there are many on this thread, and efests generally, who I'm sure are delighted, so I'm pleased for them. I'll just have to hope Flaming Lips return to headline the Other Stage, so I can make amends for missing them in 2010! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 I've got mixed feelings about it. I drifted away from Radiohead after Kid A having listened ti the first 3 albums a lot, but I've never seen them live and I am really excited to see them. By contrast I've probably listened to the Roses more, but I was / am really nervous about Ian's voice and whether that would detract from the whole thing for me. But as always there will be something else on another stage, and it might just end up being someone like Pearl Jam or NIN, or indeed the Flaming Lips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 There have been certain Pyramid headliner bands I've seen, taking a punt on them playing a certain song, which has worked out well so far. That's my philistine approach with Thom and co. Acoustic Creep into 15 Step would be good. NFRNFC y'all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucyginger Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Morning all! Have I missed something about the Roses? Quark I'd love NIN or Pearl Jam! Bit Manchester here today, but it's Friday and I'm going out tonight. To an actual pub, with people in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Morning Lucy! Apparently there was an interview with Emily yesterday when she categorically denied that Daft Punk or Stone Roses would be headlining. Personally I'm not taking that as 100%; the confirmation of Radiohead was so early and so out the norm for Glastonbury that all bets are off as far as I'm concerned! We have gone down the rabbit hole Alice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr gumby Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Afternoon all! Just found out a friend who I haven't seen for nearly 20 years is going to be at her first glasto next year. Really hope we can meet for a catch up, it'd be great to see her face when she sees it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoghurt on a Stick Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Hello all I've got to go to visit my parents today and am dreading it. The last few times that I have called in to see them it's ended up with me and my dad arguing and me eventually storming out of their house because I'm just unable to deal with the bloke. Why just walk in to another shouting match I wonder to myself? I want peace and harmony in my life, not my own dad telling me to fuck off. Ho hum.

Really looking forward to the Pompey one, never been to the Guildhall and I do like trying a new venue After missing Dub Pistols a couple of weeks ago and having to miss Chainska Brassika next week due to being away for this training course I'm feeling a bit gig-deflated! Got Bear's Den on the 1st and then Levs in Dec, but might see if I can find something to fill the gap in between! 8 minutes ago, Yoghurt on a Stick said: I've got to go to visit my parents today and am dreading it.

There's something about returning to our parents' home that turns us back into children! May be the time to use a bit of Transactional Analysis and consciously put yourself in Adult state for the whole of the visit. Staying logical cuts out the emotion and keeps you safe. I find this article really helpful http://www.carolsolomonphd.com/web_pdfs/Transact.pdf Good luck Yog! Greetings all, happy Finbarr day. I hope you're all feeling yourselves today.

I have to say that, in a completely un-finbarrish way, I'm feeling myself for the first time in about a year. I'm genuinely excited about having a golden ticket whereas last October life was so shitty I couldn't really enjoy it much at all. Have loved the general Radiohead/bear induced insanity over the last few days. I'm not even a fan, but already looking forward to Friday at the Pyramid.
