gooner1990 Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 I hope they raid the 90s archive a bit better than what’s detailed on that press release....far too much recent stuff on there that’s already widely avaliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drunk pumpkin Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Looking forward to this now. It will sooth the hurt a tiny bit and help draw a line under the 50th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my first thought. I guessed an announcement on what would have been the Friday of the festival and this Potentially lines up. The announcement actually made me feel quite emotional. Guess it hit home again that it’s not happening? The festival itself hadn’t been on my radar at all for a while now. Well up for watching the LCD set in the garden with a cider.

funkychick2007 Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Cant wait to see this!! I wonder if they will show any random round the festival site coverage! I’m just a little bit excited now! I wonder if we can put a tv outside to watch so I can watch with at least one member from our gang from a different household! 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lubic Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Sounds good! Nice to see a lot of effort going into this rather than just putting up a few sets on iplayer. Coldplay 2016 was probably my favourite festival set, so was planning on rewatching that anyway. In terms of an iplayer wishlist, would be nice to get QOTSA 2011 in full. Shame there's no chance of Pulp from that year as well. Still got the leave booked, so need to make sure I'm stocked up on beers. Might even set the tent up in the garden if I can be arsed!

WestCountryGirl Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Have had a brainwave re. visiting my parents in a socially distanced way and having the Glastonbury experiece. I drive for 7 hours (to get to my parents house). I camp in the back garden, on the slightly sloped section, for that realistic Glasto feel. I only use the cellar toilet, so I never have to go into the house. Get my Mum to come up with a varied menu of street food for me to munch on at illogical hours of the day. Bring the old telly into the garden, and rave it up with Dad from a safe distance. This could turn into a proper boss weekend. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always think of 94/95 being the first two years where Glastonbury took off (or at least when its significance was realized to me at least). This is the set from '94 that I wish I was at (or that classic afternoon on the Other/NME stage where 4 or 5 future headliners played the same day). @Wooderson had a good point on Twitter recently where he was wondering if we could get releases of classic sets, sort of similar to that great Orbital album/dvd collection (his example) that took best bits from their 94-2004 sets that sort of made you think you were there... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't all that fussed about watching and listening to all this from home, but in true Glastonbury fashion I think they do a good job with it and always enjoy listening to Laverne in the build up to the festival each year.

Hotchilidog Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 Something to look forward too. Myself and my friends still have the time booked off so we will be socially distancing and zooming in collectively for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that Johnny Cash footage. What stage is he on? Was it when the Pyramid wasn’t actually a pyramid? A Pymild in fact? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyT Posted May 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 A friend of mine owns a farm and has already suggested getting a big screen projector / PA sorted in one of his fields and having a socially distanced party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmb1992 Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I'm glad there is something but it feels a bit bittersweet, I'm bound to get a bit emotional about it not happening (as I'm sure many people will). I'll be happy when the weekend is done and the countdown is on for next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean, felt a few pangs of sadness earlier when I realised that it should be four weeks to gates opening and ordinarily this place would be in full preparation mode...
