My highlights so far have been Caribou and the breast body painted fan who was shown on the TV coverage during Neil Gallagher on the Pyramid. It wouldn't surprise me if the director is sadly sent to equality training next week

A touching moment of human expression. Brought a tear to my eye.

Yungblud looked incredible on the iplayer.

I've been going through a rough time recently and it's alright mate hit me a lot harder than it should have done - brave to play 2 new songs in a festival set. A bit like Gabriels earlier this afternoon not necessarily something I'd have gone to see in person at the festival but very glad I watched the iplayer version. Gabriels is definitely my highlight behind Sam Fender.Β 

Β 

Enjoyed Rodrigo and Gallaghers sets - today has felt a lot more like 'Glastonbury' than yesterday where it felt like just a festival - although it's giving me the itch to go to a festival again (not been to any post-Covid)Β

Also happy to chat mate. Know how it feels. Music has an amazing way of bringing out those emotions.Β

Delaying the greatest songwriter of all time to show an episode of Casualty. Excellent.Β 

Or …..in agreement with McCartney and Glastonbury, or maybe even by request, the technical wizards have an hour head start to make sure everything sounds and looks amazing.

Doesn’t get anywhere near being there obviously but the bbc coverage is top class.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.Β  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December).Β 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).Β  Β  On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.Β  Β  Now on the negatives.Β  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?Β  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.Β  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.Β  Β  And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.Β  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.Β  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous. Β  Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.Β 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
