My first meet last time despite being on here since 2011 ... I  went with a friend as this is how we got our tickets but have only just got him to sign up ... now he's not sure what to say ... I want to get him involved so he can meet some of the great people on here. he's a must c obsessive so should be easy to get him involved ... anyway next time I will try not to sit quietly under the tent and meet a few more of you I really only got to meet curlygirl .... but bumping into lots of you around the site was great 

You were like a beacon around the site last year after showing your outfit to everyone (next year I promise I will have the balls to come up and say hi). Still can't really believe I didn't manage to spot the Groot around and about. The opportunity to be a contestant in efest-spotting bingo is definitely a good incentive to make a highly distinctive outfit and live in it for five days :lol:

Both things that have to be done to be believed. Benny's hugs can revive a flagging spirit.

I forgot about the Glastonbury 2017 one. I did go to Boomtown meet up this year, but only managed to find @Tommy101 and his friends - still, we had a super fun time and I'm very much looking forward to meeting more of the efest celebrities in 2019 :)

Perhaps people think you’ve been dialling in the “You’re a c**t” thing recently, Mardy. Some renewed vigour might be needed next year. 

I’ll be there next time. I’ll try and wear a t-shirt with ‘What am I?’ on it as a prompt. 

Hehe, I’m mellowing with middle age, obviously. Mind just wait till we get some confirmed acts, especially looking st some of these rumours, and I’ll  let rip

Is this the groot you're talking about? Is it someone in here?

Can people stay a bit later next year? Usually me and the Gnome at 11 going where’s everyone gone.

I’ll have a bash Wooders. But no promises. 

Mrs Woffy and smallest Woffling arrive at Thurs lunchtime. 

I’ll be in the queue Tuesday night. 

So Weds is my day / night for drinking until the Kidz Field beckons each following morning  

Keep me on infrequent piss-weak lager and I’ll hang in there

Aye, that would be the one! Unless there are two people who decided to make that costume :lol: He was posting pics of it in the run up - and i think made himself a baby Groot? - but I can't remember his user name now and a search isn't bringing it up. Not sure if @crazyfool1 remembers/tracked him down?

I hope to Christ it had a special longdrop flap.

Thanks all, very glad to see the playlist getting so much love!!

Updates since the start:

  • Henge, announced by Shangri La on Facebook;
  • Mik Artistik's Sweet Leaf of the North replacing another of his, after a discussion on Twitter (including the band's promoter, and attracting a like from the man himself!!);
  • A track from Tony Bowen,  who plays a human jukebox set, at his request;
  • Bradley Cooper, following his comments about playing the Park (2 of them duets with Gaga, but don't get your hopes up just yet);
  • Today's new Strong Rumour - Orbital.

I also knocked up a cover image. Was going to use one simply of the sign, but ended up playing around with a snap from Foals on the Pyramid from 2016, and came up with this. I just hope it doesn't make newbies think we get ribbons all the time!

Good choice on the Mik Artistik change!

The baby groot is on my windowsill right now surveying all that’s below him! I split up with my missus in December and he was the thing I wanted custody of. He’s my little mate ??

Updates to the playlist over the past few days:

  • Billy Bragg, who as @Beerqueen and @marathonsteve is highly likely!!
  • BC Camplight, who self-confirmed to @GrowlerPhil
  • Which prompted me to up the Beans on Toast quotient - wouldn't be surprised to see him get a slot on one of the major stages this time around

I think Sweet Leaf has been on every one of these I've done - at least there's a new version of it this time!

I think that's how I got into him - listening to that song on your playlist. Saw him twice last year!

    • Probably completely overthinking this plus I’ve only just seen it. But, could this be a hint at the secret set, they are free this weekend??
    • Think you got you username the wrong way round...    Congrats!!
