Really hoping for an Adrianne Lenker set at the crow's nest this year.. especially as I think I'll be missing big thief (who were incredible earlier this year at Shepherds bush.. as was Adrianne at EartH)

If you're missing Big Thief for Porridge Radio, I believe somebody said they have info PR are doing another set somewhere, which will surely be at Crows Nest.

What day does it open?

I think in the past they've had djs on Wednesday and the odd thing on Thursdays... not sure but most acts are on Friday - Sunday that I've seen. But a good shout - might be worth poking my head in on Thursday. If only for a brew and some cake.

Somebody asked them and they said they’re only doing the one set this year, unfortunately.

Whats the point of them having the whole weekend open other than to hang out. Booourns

 

 

and they post the lineup mid morning, or at least in 2017. Ill be close by so if im awake early ill check the chalkboard.  Here is to hoping some conflicts can get resoled by their schedule

Managed to see Snapped Ankles in there in 2019 very late on Saturday night, it was utter chaos. For me it was the highlight of the entire festival

This was one hell of a set, packed tent, mad music, the band disappearing into the crowd in their weird gilly suits. Banging.

 

I've seen acts up there that seemingly didn't have any other sets at the festival, including acoustic guy Adem and a talk from Robert Lewellyn. Also had a nice cup of lemon and ginger when I was feeling rough on a Sunday morning in the sunshine.

 

Making sure I'm up there at some point this year, just got to check those chalk boards...

I've never made it to the crows nest. How far past the Glastonbury sign is it and which field do you access it from?

Just walk up the hill from the Park and it’s on the left of the sign, a bit further left beyond Tricketts Bar. The highest stage at the festival!

oh yeah! that was soooo good! first time „love+hate“ was amazing

I was there too for Mr. Kiwanuka - unforgettable

Last time I tried to get in was for King Gizz and I was defeated by a wall of punters ten deep outside the hut - it can be very busy if word gets round of a popular act!

Really missing the farm today. Buggger.

Who are we thinking/hoping for at this year's Crow's Nest? (I predict Confidence Man and Working Men's Club.)

Coach Party.

I'd have said Prima Queen but they're already going to be exhausted with all the sets they're doing.

Ooh, theres a question, which is higher, the Crow Nest or Strummerville?! I reckon Strummerville might be a bit higher, as it is right at the top of the field, and has a really steep slope to get to it. It always seems more of a slog to get to Strummerville than it does to get to the Crows Nest when you are at the bottom of the hill

Seen so many great gigs in there over the years - known and unknown. In the unknown, Masters of Joujouka in @ 2011; so many of them they filled the entire tent with the crowd all partying around the outside ( playing Pyramid again this year, so may be a good shout?).

Last year Hot Chip DJ'd the closing Sunday into the small hours

It was incredible. First time I've heard Love & Hate, and it was magical, this song seemed to never end !
