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.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
