It's normally transcribed, and last year due to the increase in people using Twitter directly on smartphones, it was also retweeted.

I think we always cover it.

Yes, it's always been sent on by the sterling SecretGlasto. Many thanks to whoever is doing that this year, I salute you!

Think I'll still wander up there each morning to have a squint at the blackboard too blah blah ... @Keithy had the very same thought above while I slow typed something.

Tsk. Getting the lineup off Twitter. You lot don't deserve the Crows Nest. You need to trek up the hill each morning and have a look at the blackboard outside to fully deserve getting into the Crows Nest. It's a labour of love not convenience.

^ This - though as a Hitchin' Hill camper it might come down to some technology by the Sunday.

Girl Ray would be amazing. Just in case any Crows nest crew are reading this..

Played there in 2017. Unfortunately were up against Elbow's secret set on Park, so was just the band, me and about 8 other people.

Aww I missed them there in 2017. Dutch Uncles did it that year too. 

I loved the Crows Nest in 2016 then just completely forgot to return the next year. There are way too many distractions at Glastonbury.

I was one of the other 8 watching Girl Ray... it was a great set!  Also in 2017 saw Amber Arcades and Flamingods (who played an amazing, feverish set).

I missed off Flamingods from my list of those who could play this year. As they are playing either Greenpeace or HMS Sweet Charity maybe?

HMS Sweet Charity. Pretty sure they didn’t show up last time they were booked for it though.

Really hoping for Frank Turner. He's mentioned to individuals that he'll be playing 'a couple of times across the weekend' and he's only got the Avalon slot right now. 

I'm guessing he'll do another set up at Strummerville like he did last time he played.

I think Pip Blom are highly likely for crows nest. This nme article and their own blog mention that they’re playing 3 times across the festival, and they’re only currently listed on the line-up twice, on JP and Williams Green. Unless of course they’re a TBA anywhere else.

That’d be nice. Love their album but looking like I’ll be missing both their currently announced sets due to clashes.. although I’ll probably just end up missing this third set as well if it transpires.

    • My party again had an outstanding 4 days in Barca. We made the right call to leave the festival site early at about 10.30 on Thursday to get ourselves some excellent steaks in the city. I am with everyone that the organization should have been clearer about what is going on and also if you would like to get rid of some attendees open more exits, they sent us from gate to gate until we finally were able to get out. Biggest 'disappointment' was the beer price, a YoY increase from 5 to 6 is absolutely nuts!!! (i am living in Switzerland so me making this comment says something 🙂)   Top 10:   1. Men I Trust 2. Role Model (could have been first as well, what a great artist and great songs) 3. The XX 4. The cure (the last 90 minutes) 5. Gorillaz 6. MBV 7. Ninajirachi (another big miss of the organization, clearly on the wrong podium and wonder if Olivia's surprise set had something to do with that and they had to reschuffle late the Occident, Cupra and Port schedules) 8. NewDad 9. Big Thief 10. Annastashia      We did 3 years Barca now and for next year looking at the Porto or Bilbao festivals as an option. 
    • Personally if it was me now, I would be grabbing a green camping ticket with the knowledge closer when I've refreshed that I can still choose general if I want to....you can't do the opposite!    I would say if you are happy to watch your headliners and big bands further back to be able to see who you actually plan to later then yes it is fine. Its a much difference experience to any other festival especially food wise and camping surrounds.    Once you're in the arena as well you're not going back unless you've got a gap. If I go again I'll be going with the option of not trying to push the front and enjoying further back as you actually put too much pressure on it than the time take away can forget to enjoy other acts.
    • No complaints about the sound. We were like 2nd set of steps facing stage right in like the middle row.
    • On the whole then,yay or nay...I've had a look on festivals united and there's people who seem converted by Rock Im Park, I can imagine it might be different if it was a washout as RaR is tarmac.   The hotel side would be more to convince the non campers if it's an option. On my first visit to rock am ring we were shuttled into the area where you could stick the car next to the tent which was fantastic as it meant zero lugging of camping gear.
