the fisherman's friends in to the bootleg beatles last year in the acoustic was exceptional.

One of my favourite ever runs at Glasto.

Patti Griffin - Fishermans Friends - Bootleg Beatles. 

Got close for the Bootlegs for once and missed the rain!

Somehow managed to get in the tent for this and it was indeed excellent - was stoked that they got a decent Thursday slot rather than their usual pretty much guaranteed to be missed Sunday morning slot. Hoping they return on the Thursday again this year

Tempted to go Bedford you services these, it's only £13 a ticket and close. Chances of me getting in the WG tent is rare.

tried to get an update on bootlegs info, but its not forthcoming.

Darn it. 

A non-clashy (I.e. Not headlining a smaller stage) would be great, ideally. 

Info. being 'withheld', Neil, or just not there?

They play with a mini (and I mean mini) orchestra anyway, so they can still do a pretty decent stab at things like A Day in The Life and I Am the Walrus.  The band leader even has a piccolo trumpet for Penny Lane.

And they do the outtake version with the trumpet outro too. Always thought they should've left that in.

I was agreeing with you. I normally don't. (We have different tastes in music - it's no crime). That's all I was saying. By lawks, you're defensive.

He is a rag, thats how they all are.

I'm very aware you usually don't, but you point out for once....it's a bit like paying a nice comment and taking it away/being sarcy at the same time. I have no issues with you having different tastes in music than me, I'm sure we would listen to each others ipod for 3 songs on shuffle before deciding against more haha.

Defensive nah!....

    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city! 
    • I think people on a place like this, that clearly value live music more than most, don't. I'd rather an academy than an arena every day. But I could see a few people that care about "the gram" than the actual music wanting an arena experience even if it's a mid sized band.
