Ah yes, the bug what ever that is

If its the same thing they had at their London show, then its a mobile sound system that looks like a beetle with its wings up.

Aye, I'm a fine of Keaveny but I do feel like Lauren does a slightly better job of prepping me for the day ahead

As you say keaveneys tone isn't exactly akin to the morning pep talk I'm often in need of.

Yep... it is.  It's been at Glastonbury previously too.

I think I remember that it came out after arcadia had finished and boomed out tumes

Just been catching up with the show on delay. Really great listen. Got me more excited for the festival than anything else so far!

Didn't they start off with a tower thing, then changed to a spider, then the spider took some steroids and went massive and buff. 

This is an image I found from when I went in 2009, in trash city.

At the London events it was the third stage, programmed all day - it didn't move about, it was between The Spider and The Reactor.

Wasn't this experimental bee installation in the Glade in 2015, or something like it?

Be, the band did a surround sound bee thingy in The Glade in 2017.  I don't think this is the same installation.

Just relistened and the only thing she said re playing Foals was 'and then Foals with In Degrees' - everything else played today was related to Glastonbury in some way. I rest my case.

What about Erland Cooper?

I’m just listening back. The interview with Michael made me tear up. His laugh! I can’t get enough of it. 84 years young. I’ve never met him/seen him, I think I’d full on cry if I did.

Sounds like we know who is headlining the JP Tent then!

Ha!  I suspect the music will be a little bit too relaxed.

Keaveny gets on my nerves. He talks a load of bollocks and I generally have to turn him off after a few minutes of his stupid ramblings. 

Powered through earlier on the drive home listening about the water and sanitation infrastructure. Only for Glastonbury could I be fascinated enough to listen to that. ?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Listening to Lammo now and he's just looking like Skeletor and moaning about how Glastonbury would be better if Ned's Atomic Dustbin were headlining. 

[Zoo Music Girl]

Listening back to this morning's show. Eavis is so bloody lovely, my god. I love how he refers to it as a "show" which sounds so small in comparison to what he's actually talking about.

Did you not go near the front?

Missed the show this morning, but am now sat at outside a waterside pub in Bristol with a cold beer in hand. Listening to the Eavis interview has sent the excitement levels rocketing 26 Days...

That's the most interesting news, as I'm sure your husband will tell you.

Anybody can book a load of bands.  That's the easy part.  

Building a temporary city out in the country for around 200,000 people to have an almost week long party in, while making sure they are all fed and watered and that disease doesn't break out?  Now that's the impressive part!

We're about due a dysentery epidemic.

I quite agree. I want to see a documentary on a day in a life of that trader's market backstage where all the supplies come to.

Sex, Drugs+ Rock'n'roll? Infrastructure, Logistics + Toilet Bowls more like.
